Well you have inspired me and I am now looking through my metal to see what I have to make my own.

Finished up the bow vise, and tool tray mounted them on the side of the draw board so I can walk around the bow while working on it. Put another gun grip band on the forks of the vise as well to hold the bow on so it won't get knocked off.

Nice Work. I have been thinking about trying my hand at making one of those.

I made a change to the press that works much better, instead of using boat rollers, I placed 1/2" rubber fuel line over 1/2" bolts to hold and press the bow. The boat rollers worked great but since there is a lip on the rollers, it's a little tight getting your bow in and out of the press, where as with the fuel line placed over the bolt that was holding the boat rollers in place have no lip it makes taking your bow in and out of the press much easier!
