Random Lengths, Episode 25, hot shop tips No.7, tramming in a damaged machined surface

Howdy YouTubers!
once in a while a machined surface has to be reconditioned and that task be pert near impossible if there are no reference surfaces to work off of, or if the only reference surface is damaged.
today we're taking a look at a damaged shop vise and restoring a bit of it's original clamping power by re-machining the fixed jaw of the vise.
