Not sure if this should be here or in Neanderthal area but.... I have just acquired a nice Record 53E vise and a Record 146 holdfast, in anticipation of building a workbench to use them. I also have a very nice restored Brodhead-Garrett 500x vise, which I would also like to use. Problem is, I see so many bench designs with Benchcrafted-style face vises and twin-screw tail vises and nearly nothing with these old-school steel vises that populated woodworking classrooms when I was a kid. I won't be doing a whole lot of hand tool work, but it will be enough to want a decent bench. Any of you guys have a bench that uses one of these old vises (or even a patternmaker's vise like an Emmert) and would share pictures of your setup? I'm afraid I can only picture what I used to use in school - a 4' square slab of 3" thick maple butcherblock with a vise on each corner and a row of dog holes for each one. Sitting on a stained and dented metal cabinet.
