Barton Vise

[goldleafsantafe]

Is there anyone out there that knows where I can purchase the Barton vise that accepts 6 1/2" moulding?
L/J used to carry it but they are out of stock and not expecting to carry it anymore, I contacted Barton Manufacturing and they are no longer making the vise.

HelLLLOOO...? Where is that Official Grumbler Welcoming Committee...?

Oh, um, it's me!

Welcome to the Grumble, glsf! I hope you'll stick around so we can ask you (and Cornell) all kinds of stupid questions about gilding!

I'll ask around about the vise. There has just GOT to be one out there with your name on it.

Would a jumbo size Masterclamp (sorrysorrysorry Boggy) do the same thing? Just wondering.

Here's a link to a photo and info about one that will go up to 8 inches. Not a Barton, but I bet they're built to last forever.

This Grumble thing is great.
