Nice old pipe vise should clean up nicely.




and this V&C

Nice vises! Is the V&C missing the bottom set of teeth, or is it supposed to be that way?

How does the V&C work?  To what does it fasten?

Not sure if it has another set of jaws or not. The hump at the top has an opening for a pipe or whatever they used. I'll get a pic of the opening here in a minute.

The V&C is missing it's bottom jaw :(

The patent is 709944 ....

PS: Is actually V&G (John B. Vogelbach, Thomas Gray)

What is this called? Has pat'd Nov. 16, 1875 on it. Side view is what is holding up the vise.

Forgot to add that the opening is 7/8" so it was probably 3/4" galvanized pipe.

Guess that means why I came up empty looking around for it at vises&clamps.
Datamp says Patent not found, where did you search?
