    This afternoon's vise haul

    Well like we've said it's regional... can vary by state and location. Most of the time it's a simple issue of a dealer wanting to buy at wholesale prices so they can sell for 5x what they paid. Example... I had a restored Wilton 600 (it had new jaws from Kevin Scott installed). One guy near me...

    Athol 614 1/2 Vise - can anyone help me?

    You could say it works (for it still threads) but I'm just not crazy about the half-missing threads. As on some Reed vises, are there other Athol vises that share the same main screw/spindle? Surely, someone else has been down this road before...

    Athol 614 1/2 Vise - can anyone help me?

    Hey everyone I recently picked up an Athol 614 1/2 Vise and I've currently got it torn down to rebuild so I can put it into use.

    Need help! How to adjust play in a REED 3C active jaw

    Can anyone provide me a tip on how to properly adjust the end play in a REED 3C active vise jaw? So what's happening is it takes a couple of turn to imitate the opening of the active jaw or in turn you can pull the active jaw about an 1/8 of an inch open.

    Reed 3C Vise - Swap Meet Find

    Sure thing... I'll measure the vise this evening. It dwarfs my wilton bullet but since its going on the welding table, I figured better to have and not need than to need and not have... besides, everyone needs a big vise!
