Man you guys are a bad influence!!
   A real bench froe has been rattling around the back of my brain for 
ages.
Now you have it pushed up front and center!!

   I just "shopped my junk" and came up with a bar of tool steel I think 
will be ideal.
  1/4" I think will be just the right minimum thickness.

   As soon as its polite...........(new years hangovers and all)
I will be out irritating the neighbors with loud hammering and grinding 
noises  haahahaaah

yours, stay tuned, scott
