As part of my WTP (workshop Theory and Practice) Exam you had to make a small engineers vice to supplied drawings, then design 3 methods of holding the vice in any position, discount two of them and build the 3rd.
While scouting ebay today I found this example made by another student. It brought back some memories.
Made from 15x30 stock bar filed down to 28x12 ISTR. It had to be turned down to round to form the leg. The lower hole in the moving jaw had to be drilled offset and then plugged and brazed, then rebored in the correct position. Card file finish.
