    WW bench ... home-made-looking vice ... it slides in and out and only locks/unlocks by the front handle.

    I thought that would happen - the number of arty/designer folks viewing stuff yesterday was never going to generate low prices.
    I can see most of the casting patterns ending up as overpriced yuppie wall decorations or corporate installations.
    I guess it's better than seeing all that stuff end up at the tip.

    That's amazing, they're selling off the fittings now, 19 years later. When they shut Otahuhu Railway Workshops (in 1993 I think) everything was sold off within 6 months, and most of the buildings demolished within a couple of years.

    Hi pmcgee,

    The vice looks almost identical to this one I recently purchased, the front of my vice has a sticker on it with Robley engineering co pty ltd Geelong, and has the same quick lock mechanism. Am wandering if your vice has any markings on it as well?
    I haven't heard much about the company Robley or these types of vies so am quite intrigued in them....

    cheers,
    Priscilla
