Does anyone have a picture of a wagon vise they'd be willing to release to the public domain?

I was noticing that the Wikipedia page for Workbench (woodworking) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workbench_%28woodworking%29) has pictures of most of the commonly used woodworking vises, but does not have a picture of a wagon vise.

Wikipedia is properly cautious over copyright issues, so we can't simply grab a picture off of someone's website. We need someone who has taken a picture to release it under one of Wikipedia's acceptable licenses (Creative Commons, Public Domain, GPL, etc.)

Anyone have a wagon vise they'd be willing to take a picture of?

Google is your friend.

The poster there calls it a wagon vice.

When I look as enough of these slick benches I get a yen to build one.

Then the next time I'm, in my shop I look at the abuse my benches take in the regular course of things. That puts my mind right lickety split

Oh yah and a nice plan

In order for use to use an image in Wikipedia, we need a statement from the copyright holder that the image has been released under a license that is compatible with Wikipedia's intellectual property policies.

To use any of the images you linked, we'd need to contact the photographers, and find out if they were willing to release the images. We can't simply copy them off the web.

I thought it might be easier to see if anyone on the forum had a wagon vise they'd be willing to take a picture of.
