Barrel vise
« on: May 28, 2020, 09:33:55 AM »
Anyone on here close to Moses Lake have a barrel vise?   I want to get my one barrel rethroated and can't find my vise.  I have the action wrench for my BAT.  I have to ship the barrel to the gunsmith and don't want to ship the serialized action.  My vise got misplaced in a move.

So, anyone close to Moses Lake.  Barrel is a heavy barrel.

I have this mounted to a piece of heavy angle so it can be put in a vise or stored under the bench when not in use......never had a slip.

I tried reaming a 7/8 inch hole thru two blocks of 2x4.  Barrel diameter is roughly .900 at the grip point.   It kept spinning in the wood even when I added a toilet paper roll.  Dang..

Of the wooden variety, I think its mostly oak or other hard wood used successfully.

I'm good at some things and kinda flat on others.  Shop work is my flat area.

Not to be critical...  but that bench is waaaayyy to clean!

I have a barrel vice with oak blocks.  i put powdered sugar on the wood where it makes contact with the barrel to keep the barrel from spinning.  It works great for me.
