Well folks I told you it was done and here's the pics to prove it:

the end vise:
and the coffin vise/crochet combo (with action pics):
I finished it with 2 coats of blond shellac. It then sat for 2 weeks while a built a new lumber rack and moved around half the shop so the beast would fit. It rests nicely behind my new shortened out feed table, which still allows me to cut a 8 ft piece of plywood without it falling off the back yeah!
In use so far it been pretty cool-I've found new clamping methods for allot of things that before would have resulted in prolific use of adult language.
And for those who read my last post I made a trip to Klingspors and now I'm a the happy owner of several boxes of high quality screws starting with 1", going up to 3" in 1/4 increments! No more BORG crap for me!!
Thanks for looking-enjoy
