    Here are a couple photos of the rough unit. Haven't had time to put
    a finish on it for rust protection. Sorry but I just made it the
    other day.  I have tested it though and it works ! 

    Basically, its 36 inches long and will bolt to a work bench top via
    lag bolts through holes in every cross brace and at both ends.   The
    3/8 screw eyes at the end are used to clamp the draw plate down so it
    doesn't move. And I've made a slip over holder to use hand held draw
    pliers. I will try and make some plans up within the next week with
    more detail and get them off to you.. Remember, you can make it any
    size, mine is 36 inches as that's what my space limits me to. 

    You are in luck as I just came up with an slip clamp to hold the
    drawing pliers.

    Oh, one tip. its not in the photos, but I made a cut out on the
    plate that has the screweyes through it so the wire lies through flat
