Went to look at a BC bandsaw next town over from me back in 2015, hoping it was wood/metal, it wasn't. Looking around the basement, spotted the vise on a bench. Asked if it was available, it was, so I paid and unbolted it. Fast fwd a couple years, friend builds a true dream garage with every amenity, I visit and see a POS Chinese vise on his bench. Friends don't let friends use Chinese vises, so I restored this one to gift him. Cleaned up nicely. It's a combo vise with reversible pipe jaws and a swivel base.
