Yessir, that is what I don't want to do, break either of my 2 "good" bench vises. This one in the pics is a bit smaller than the other, but seems to be of stouter construction.
I've homebrewed a barrel vise from 2x2 stock almost identical to yours. Thinking that removing the clamping load from the vise, only using it to harness the unscrewing/assembly torque should be safe.
Am I crazy?
Sorry about the thread hijack. Interest in the really good vises got me worried about the durability of this one.
