    Rock Island Vises - History/Info?

    I don't have any catalog pages as I'm still kind of digging into what vise I have. Thanks to a GJ member here, Mgroome, I believe I have an old Rock Island vise/anvil. The pictures in the patent notice seem to match up to my vise. Here's a link to the patent, it's too large for me to post here...

    Wow, wow and did I mention WOW! I've been pecking away at your thread and I'm up to page 200. I can't remember the last time I found a thread of this size and was compelled to read it all the way through. Thomas, I have to say the between you, Chris and all the contributors this is by far my...

    I just found this thread recently and I'm 50 pages into it. Only 513 more to go! Just so you know I usually skip right through threads this big and try to get the high points but what you're doing is just so fantastic I've been reading every page. My hats off to you sir on doing such fine work.
