Would be wall-mounted over a workbench. It can swing on an arc as well as telescope to reach many areas of the bench. Wonderfully ornate! Used with a blacksmith-style brace that would have a dimple in the top in place of a head. The screw is capable of applying the tremendous force needed for drilling metal. Phenomenal patina. 36" high. Can be extended approximately 20" to 30" from the wall.
