    Default Hercus Shaper 270 Vise Handle

    If anyone has a 'surplus to requirements' vise handle for a Hercus 270 shaper vise (I believe the Douglas is the same), I'd be happy to hear from you.
    Attached is a photo of one and a scan from the Douglas parts list. Easy to make, but if possible I'd like an original to go with my overhauled vise.
    The drive is 1/2" AF square, handle 'swing' is 4".
    Thanks, Rod.

    Default A Handle Alternative

    Hi Rod,

    Another possibility might be a Hercus handle. Their No.T41, supplied with the 3 inch machine vice, fits the Douglas even better than the original.

    Thanks for the good information Bob. Appreciated.
    If anyone has a spare Hercus T41 handle, it looks like it too would suit.
