    Unfortunately by the time I thought of screenshotting them it had been removed and the lady didn't send me more photos.. It really looked like a 109, but I guess it could have been a ground off 8? It was covered in outside grime and half eaten by bushes.

    The listing was taken down, but I just saw a Colombian 109 sell near me, didn't see it on the list of vices and can't find any information online, anyone know anything about it?

    Just got probably the cleanest 108 in existence, don't think I've seen a nicer one. Will post some better pictures once I get it out in some light

    Columbian 108 1/2 Vice

    Almost done restoring a Columbian 108 with 8 1/2 jaws, would be interested in this to give it some company if you're willing to sell

    Thank you, this is the best photo I have on hand to show the repair (on the left under the tape), did my best to blend it in.

    It's some bs snap on branded tradesman that the shop I work for has. And found a gentleman online that seems to do a good job and has reasonable prices.

    Did a little to restore it, full strip, make a new bushing because the old one was too thin, and had to braze part of a jaw back on. That was stressful because I only have an hour or two of cast brazing experience before this. Found a gentleman online that makes them and has reasonable prices...

    Hello everyone, first time poster and vise owner here, just finished restoring this Columbian 108, need to buy some jaws but all done besides that. Came out of a Ford steel factory that it's been working in since the 50s, this color was chosen because it's a late 50s Ford blue. Next to a 5.5"...
