If in your workshop there is not enough free space and there is no place to place a vise, you can make a home-made mobile stand on wheels. In this case, you can more rationally use the area of the room. Worked - rolled the vice to the side. Need to pinch something - rolled out. In general, with limited space in the garage or workshop, it is very convenient and practical.
The first thing you need to do is a platform for a vice. To do this, cut a plate from sheet metal of suitable sizes and drill holes for bolt fastening in it. The number of holes directly depends on the vise model. Then we install the vice on the plate, fasten it with bolts and you can begin to manufacture the stand itself.
How to make a roll-out stand
We find a steel pipe of suitable diameter (if necessary, we fit it to the size) and weld to it three lower stops from pipes of a smaller section. On the front stops - two round plates (plugs) must be welded to the ends of the pipes, and then fastenings for the wheels. At the next stage, we put on and fix the wheels.
To ensure the stability of the entire structure, the central pipe (rack) must be filled up with sand to the top, and on top we weld the platform for a vice. To make the mobile stand more functional, hand tool mounts can be welded to the side surface of the stand. Then we install a vice and the stand on wheels is ready for use.
