My old post vise cracked at the jaw hinge during a heavy twisting job

It happened yesterday while I was trying to straighten a stubborn piece of 1/2 inch square stock. The cast iron just gave out with a loud snap. I had to stop everything and clamp the piece in my bench vise to finish. Anyone have a good source for a solid replacement, maybe from a specific supplier like Centaur Forge?

Cast iron can be sneaky like that after years of use.

Wait, how many years are we talking here? That's wild.

Did it sound as bad as my last cast iron pan cracking?
