I mean in real world, the statement "that's all the vise you will ever need" for most people is 100% accurate BUT at GJ a man can not live on "tool needs" alone! He also has "tool wants" and in case of tools and in particular vises, as we (GJ members) all know it takes a lot more (and I mean a lot) than one vise to satisfy a man's wants.
And what is wrong with you today, anyway? The poor guy is getting hooked on vises and you are trying sensibly to set him straight! I am shocked and offened

Gman, sorry about getting back late to the party, power went out and screwed our WIFI.---What I said about
Elsinore13's 205R was basically true and a brain-fart at the same time.---Even the most aggressive collector usually has that one special go-to, every-day vise he calls his beater with 200 or more setting around the walls, like
Demo or
VISEs.---The brain-fart, well I shouldn't have said anything more than that's a really great score cause in about 2 years he'll have 200 setting around the walls.---I don't know what he paid for it but most of the time you have to pay a little more for old iron in good shape.---I got what I think is a real nice
208R that with shipping cost me nearly a grand, but as singer
Bobby Bear said,
("I gotter boys, that makes me the winner").
As far as the flooding, we got real lucky.---About 5 1/2'' but in a 4 day span so creeks didn't hardly rise, but we needed the rain.---Others on the east coast weren't so lucky.---The whole time, I'm thinking why can't California get about half of all this.---Don't seem fair.
