Welcome to the Forums
I have been around here 14 years and and its the first time I have have seen mention of a Waldown Vice. Plenty of other Waldown items ,but first time for a Waldown vice.

Maybe I haven't been around much. Shortly the other blokes who have seen a lot Waldown gear will be along and we shall look forward to what they say.

While you are waiting have a look around the rest of the forum.

See page 39 and there is mention of a patent application for an engineers vice by James Hamilton Goodwill of Kew Melbourne,Victoria Australia and his vice.

It might be the one.

I have a brochure for one. Waldown made them under license. I'll see whether I can find it.

Pretty sure we have one at work as well (with substantially more of the original metal still there )

The Goodwill was pretty different to that one! I'll get some pics up.

Here's everything I have on it.

I'd love to get some photos of one in real-life - I can't find any anywhere online.

Hi
Grahame thanks for the reply
I do have few WALDOWN machines ( not many ) but this is first time I came a cross with one of these .
Look's to be very well made . I did up load a video on youtube under the name "Rusty old shed" won't be hard to find the video as there are
only 5 or 6 videos on the channel

I will try to up load some pic's here on the forums. First have to learn how to do it
