Yes, my square body has dually axles so the H1 wheels work well with the offset. I actually have a set of 4 **** Cepek alloys that I need to sell.

A friend from work ended up having an extra 25% off HF coupon so everything worked out.

I was hoping there was an updated/current version.

Anyone know if there is an active 10% off $50+ item coupon? Those 2 codes appear to be expired. I was planning to buy a USG top chest. I'm not even sure if toolboxes are eligible for most of their coupons - but worth a shot.

Yes, we were able to snag it from the guy that posted it on Facebook. I never commented on the sales post.

Only took 15 months. We found this Reed 208 in Virginia for a reasonable-ish price. Have not found the date stamp yet. This is not for my personal collection, this is for our business. Can't wait to see the stand the guys at work create for this thing. We have some top notch creative...

PM sent. Good luck!

Wanted to post this here because I saw it online and couldn't find it anywhere here on GJ or on the vise spreadsheet. Craftsman 5233 - it's a fixed base with replaceable jaws. Looks like a Rock Island to me. Unfortunately no info available from the seller. It's on facebook in Nevada if...

What is the correct method for removing the "wheel spacers" (4 in the drawing below)? I have already removed the wheel guards (7, 41) but the wheel spacers (4) are preventing removal of the end caps (12). Each wheel spacer will spin on the shaft and move a short distance along the shaft...

GJ is a bad influence. I just picked up a complete Wilton C2 Schiller Park with date markings from 1982. This is now the largest vise I own (by any metric). Seller's images attached as the weather has not allowed any pictures yet.

Picked up my first vintage Craftsman Grinder yesterday for $45. It's the basic 1/4 HP model 115.7561 (listed as "4.5 AMPS"). The power switch is the horizontal toggle style. It is dated "3.54" so March 1954. It's dirty but doesn't seem too rusty. This is my first USA made grinder after...

Thanks Kevin. I just ordered an endcap from your old site. I will get the jaws from Nick.

KMScott or anyone that may know - any update on restocking Wilton jaws? I was thinking about ordering some for my 3" bullet and the only ones that are in stock are the aluminum. https://www.wiltonviseparts.net/3-inch-wilton-vise-jaws/

Disassembled a 3” bullet (model 3HD) that I just picked up on a whim. All of the seller’s pictures coincidentally hid the “Chicago” so that was a happy surprise. Both of the pins holding the key to the dynamic were MIA, so the key was the last part I removed from the static. I was happy...

Thanks very much Shiftless. If anyone reads this and is curious about the difference between the normal bullets and the HD versions (like I was), this thread has some information and a 1950 catalog with specs for 4" and 4.5" bullets in normal and HD flavor. Interestingly, those are the only HD...
