Before and after paint, a bench vise stand.
At the time I didn't have a work bench to mount my new vise on.

Looks great, nice welds.
How did you weld onto the brake drum? First time I did that it cracked like an egg. I blessed it with some colorful language and redid it all with some 308L stick electrodes.

All mig, I setup for the thickness of the bottom of the rotor.
I made a second stand for a used bench grinder but the rotor was below freezing when I welded it so lots of cracks showed up in the weld. Lesson learned.

Here are the photos of the finished bench grinder stand, same design just different height and bolt hole pattern.
