Massachusetts foundry cast aluminum tying vise pedestal

The cast in tool caddy is pre drilled with 3/8 and 1/2” holes for tool storage. Stem collar is cast in and bored to 3/8” is compatible to US made vises. With a locking screw and hex key included. Divided storage trays for material orginization with four magnetic smaller compartments for hooks and beads. Four stout protective feet.
A bit on the making process, these are cast in green sand (recycled). Kind of like making a sand castle at the beach. A mold is made with negative of the pedestal, 1400 degree molten aluminum is poured into the cavity. After solidification casting is cleaned, cut, ground/polished, drilled, tapped, painted and assembled.
