Work continues apace on the home forge facilities.
I bought 2 leg vices on Saturday from a local treasure/junk shop for a great 2 for 1 deal, so I now have a portable vice and a large one for the home forge.
The large one was seized from about 50 years of use, and probably 20 years of abandonment in a field.
Today was spent heating, hitting, levering, cleaning, painting and greasing.
The result, which I am very pleased with, is a fully functioning vice at a fraction of the price had I bought it in this condition. Now I just need to make something very sturdy to attach it to and the home forge moves closer to being ready.
