This hardware is from my first leg vise over 10 years ago. Eighteen inch long 1-8 screw with 2 nuts, self-aligning bearing, and parallel guide with pin. $20 for the lot.
I am starting on a project to retrofit my original leg vise with an Acme screw and X-cross.
If you have been thinking of making a leg vise, here is a head start. The 8-tip screw is a bit slow but it clamps powerfully.
