if anyone is interested in this looks like a Parker vise for $20. https://www.kijiji.ca/v-tool-other/london/bench-vise-3-inch/1343453155?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true to far for me this weekend but looks like a great deal!

Looks like I found my next beater vise!! I cant believe how heavy it is. I have a Record No. 6 and its par with the weight.

This the Mohawk vise I got today. Is there any information on it? its big and heavy (about 90 lbs.)

Just picked this vise up. Wasn't looking for a vise but couldn't pass it up for $20. It's a Mohawk 6" but can't find any information on it. No other markings on it. I'll take some pictures of it tonight.

picked up this big heavy ratchet yesterday for $2

There are no casting marks what so ever on the vise. I will be putting it up on the vintage vises soon after I clean it up a bit. I've used it a bit today and I can see it being one of my favorite tools in the shop. Its very fast and holds just about anything really tight.

had some time today for a drive. also got a few other tools and a old radio.

Looks like the seller is willing to hold it for me until Saturday so I will make the 100km drive. I'll post it once I get it. Thanks for your help guys.

the guy is asking $40 if anyone is interested its on Kijiji. to far for me right now.

i think that the lever puts pressure on the slide and locks it in place.

A guy is selling a weird looking vise that I never seen before. anyone have any information on it? and how it works?

yes they both came complete. they rather have new, which worked for me.

hey GJ. just wanted to show my work horses. wolf 8" that I got at a garage sale for $25 And a 10" Porter-Cable/Rockwell that I got from work because they wanted something new. also got the polisher in the deal:rocker:

they are pretty good testers. we give them to all the apprentices we got. we tell them to test a known source first them test the device that needs testing then go back to the know device to just make sure its working.

thanks for the reply TM2002. so would you say this is a Canadian version of the 397 is Delco (Division of GM) or 257 is Paramount/Allegretti & Co. And are there any other prefixes for Canada?
