Nice work on an interesting old vise. I like a vise with a big anvil. Good work!

[@TheRussianWoodworker]

Thanks for watching! And yes it's definitely a unique one.

I have a large one of these in need of a restoration. Not sure if I want to mess with it as the sliding to the rear mechanism doesn’t really make sense for a good bench vise. No clamping vertically.

[@wetdedstuocm]

I was thinking, is he going to shim it.. You Did.. Sweet..

[@TheRussianWoodworker]

I think it's the only way I could've fixed it:)

Is this a famous Bison vise?

[@TheRussianWoodworker]

It is an Indian copy of the Bison FPU vise yes.

Bench vises are designed to be mounted as in this image i.stack.imgur.com/fh2V9.jpg so that long work pieces may be held. But the movable jaw of your vise is over the table so such an arrangement is not possible.

[@TheRussianWoodworker]

Different vises are made for different purposes. This one is made specially for a machinist so they won't be working on such large pieces. But that is still a good image to keep in mind when mounting traditional style vises!
