yes i have reconned a couple of vises, yes it needs a large grinder @ 30 in travel . i thinkk the one in your link is an old enco kurt knock off an obviosly beat up .
http://www.shars.com/products/view/8139/6quot_690V_CNC_Milling_Machine_Vise_00004quot I used these in one shop i worked at they were fair for the cost. i think by the time you ground both jaws , squared the support block and sent the bases for top and bottom grinding you would be hard pressed to compete in price , even for a new kurt , especially if you are producing parts with them . but if you can do most of it in house and a local can grind them maybe you will get a decent roi . jeremy youngs On Sun, Jul 20, 2014 at 9:07 PM, Kirk Wallace <kwall...@wallacecompany.com> wrote: > I have a couple of 6" mill vises that came with used mills.
