You are worrying about thing you should not worry about. Once it's together it will hold its self together

LMAO...... Not one flat rate box two boxes, The big square one for the body and the shallow one for the screw. I found the pic but just can't upload them from my phone

A 4" wilton will fit in two Flat rate boxes ...... if it does not have the swivel. I believe it cost me $30 or so to ship my last one. Take the ACME screw out put it in one box, it will be a little bulged out put the dynamic jaw back in the static jaw and place it in the large flat rate...

Purchased two Wilton Baby Vises from him. Very nice to deal with. The Items were as described or better. Also he shipped the items extremely quick. Hopefully we can do more business in the future. Thanks again Mike

I am in need of some info on the power arm junior knob. i believe this is the early knob that mounts to the flat piece of metal not the knob that mounts to the rod. I have attached a picture of the missing ball first and then some pictures of the actual ball. The info i need is. 1) close up...

Well I borrowed the fork lift and the hoist. If it had been stuck even an inch more I do not believe this method would have worked. After it picked the fork lift off the ground the second time I had a really bad feeling that it was going to go to the scrap yard but I did get lucky that it was...

So i was in the process of building a frame for a bottle jack when it was suggested to me to tie it off to a fork lift and pick up on it with a over head hoist. Well it lifted the fork lift off the ground. This happened twice then the power pack went in and it came free. looks like about 3...

Ya I was thinking about a hydraulic press but I don't have one or know anyone who does right now. But I can get a cheap 6 ton bottle jack $10 worth of scrap angle iron and built a frame so the jack can press on the back of the dyanamic shaft and I can still tap the dynamic jaw up front

UPDATE: Not good news. Got it back from the strippers and it is still stuck. He only had it in the tank for a week but it is not moving at all. I am thinking about making a cage around the base mount and static jaw that will secure a bottle jack at the back like Cutter did. Also make it stand...

I am looking for a baby wilton vise for my father for a gift. Would prefer a swivel vise but open to all let me know thanks

I am hopefull on the ready strip as he said he would let it soak in the tank for a week, hopefully i can talk him into a few weeks. If it is not free i will get my rosebud out and pack the dynamic jaw with Ice or dry Ice and maybe borrow another interpack and a big sledge. I appreciate the...

So I put the inter pack on it tonight. Did not move any will check tomorrow. I talked to the ready strip guy said he would do it and if he could not get if free in a week or so of stripping he would not charge. So it is going to him, hopefully tomorrow. Cutter's story did not get me excited...

The screws for the front collar were not sheared, they were in good shape and it appeared that they had not been removed although there was only 2 of the 3 of them there. Thinking of taking it to the ready strip guy and letting him soak it for a few days.... that should eat up what ever rust...

My columbian vise apeared to have never been resored before and it did not have any paint on the slide or handle.......also i does not seem as if there is enough clearance for the slide to be painted, at least on my vise.
