Title: Neat multi tool gadget
Post by: SteveW on October 18, 2013, 10:16:20 PM

I have had this for a few years but no room to set it up and use it. Quite a neat rig for it's time and actually was very popular in Australia with sheep shearers. I don't have the crank or the vise and there is also a tray that water could go in while using the stone to sharpen items. It almost went to junk yard when a man I went to Church with passed away and he had 3 daughters who just wanted the house cleaned up. He was a handy man of the highest order and to think how much stuff did get pitched but at least something survived.

Can affirm it has been an indispensable tool to have. I have a fixed vise on a workbench but being able to roll this around is a big plus and it really a solid lock when you tighten that wheel. Have to figure out how to make something to hold larger items deeper into the opening using those lower 1/2 round channel's.
