Today I build the biggest vise I have ever seen. It’s designed to be a blacksmith clamp that can crush and hold large parts. It weighs 1490 lbs has a 30” throat, with 13” jaws. I pinstriped the candy red powder coat for style. The hydraulic cylinder gives the maximum clamping pressure of 30,000 lbs.
Check out the 4 part build series on the vise.
