While I'm all for a reduction in concrete use, it's misleading at best to say that it "grows mold". Nor does it "trap humidity" because, on its own, it is quite vapor permeable.

Wood and brick are generally not a replacement for where you'd use concrete in a home anyway.

A vise is handy to hold the work, but make sure you have some wood or something in there to protect the shaft. The jaws will definitely fuck up your shaft if it's not adequately protected.

Also, if you want a bit of exercise, you could probably make it happen with a hacksaw.
