I have a well that doesn't get used very much. It gets to smelling like sulfur. I shocked the system with Clorox, circulated, let the system set with the chlorine in it for 24 hours, then ran a lot of water out on the grass to flush the system. If you know you have a problem this is an option...

I have collected Coleman lanterns for years. It has been awhile since I have added one to my collection, does anyone have one to sell? I have enough 220's but would be interested in about any other model. Thanks Kirk

This is exactly correct. I have one and it came from an auto parts store where I worked years ago. We were a dealer for and serviced HW Jacks, this was the jack the customer could use while his was being repaired. Mine is the same color as yours. Probably from the 1960's

Today was a good day came across and acquired a Morgan #160

Welcome from NW OK. Post pictures as you progress.

I have one that came out of a local Chevrolet dealership. It was a catch all, I ask about it and the dealership owner said he needed the work bench area. I offered to trade a metal workbench and he took my offer. Since I have seen one sell for $4,000 in similar shape.

Well I am glad I went and looked. Ad should have read, Two Vise’s For Sale, Reed 104R and American Scale #50, $50 for the pair :bounce:

This vice is advertised as “Reed Scale Co. Number 104R Vise Number 50” I do not find a 104R that looks anything like it. I do not find a Reed #50 anywhere on the web. Can anyone tell me anything about this vise? This is the only picture I have until tomorrow. Thanks Kirk T

I still have those and still haven't needed them.:bounce:

The old gentleman that owned the place was a Certified Hydraulic Jack Repairman. Great find!!

Thank you! The jaws are ok but well used. The pipe jaws are really good. The vice is tight. The end cap is there, swivel base good, haven't seen any cracks. The handle has a slight bend but you have to look for it. The four pins that hold the pipe jaws in place, one is missing. Will that be...

I picked up this Wilton C1 today. I'm not sure what this date is?

I appreciate your quick reply‘s! The fella said he would take a little less for it so I’m on my way to get it. Don’t see a Wilton vice come up for sale around here very often. I need it so if I paid a little more for it then it’s worth I’m OK with that. I’m looking forward to dating it. Thank...

Is that vise worth $400?

What model is this Wilton?
