So I’m new to the site. Found it when I was doing some research on a Columbian Vise I bought over the weekend and cleaned up. I believe it’s a model 604 1/2 on a swivel base. I’ve never restored tools before, but I’m scared I might have found a new hobby! Really enjoyed it. The vise was used pretty hard but everything was still functional. I stripped the paint, soaked in vinegar, wire wheeled and re painted.
Here is the before
Here is the after:
Not nearly as nice as some of the restorations I found but I was just learning as I was going. Anyway thanks for looking!
