Saw Vise Part #1

I spent a portion of the day making a saw vise. A saw vise is used to hold a saw blade so that it can be sharpened. My saws could really use some sharpening, I thought my arm was going to fall off after ripping two of the long boards. I made the the vise pieces from an old pallet that I took apart. The rest came from some scraps left over from my saw bench project.
So far things are looking good. I got all of the parts cut out and the joints cut out. I'll do the final fitting and glue up tomorrow.
