good!

It was absolutely my pleasure!! Thanks for watching!

I Love that base! Great save bringing that back to life! It looks awesome!

Thank you my friend! I truly enjoy old tools, especially vises (as does anyone else in this thread!), and being able to show others in "layman's" terms through video how they can attempt to bring things back to life is a passion! Thank you for the compliments!

AWESOME!! I am so glad your saving that old girl!! that is an incredible vise, and I'd LOVE to see how it goes once your finished (either way, we can't win em all!)! Thanks for letting me know my video inspired you! That truly means a lot! Good luck with the repair, just take your time, and I'm...

Thank you Bob! I couldn't see it just get scrapped!

I restored another vise on my Youtube channel - Salvage Workshop! I found this old Prentiss 514 Bulldog in a guys scrap metal pile, and I LOVE the way these old bulldogs look, so I asked him what he wanted, and he said I could have it, but that it would be impossible to fix! I laughed, and...

Here is the Salor Beall 705: This one has another 5 HP single phase motor on it, but I am not sure what size the tank is? Is that a 120 Gal? Haven't done anything with it to see if it runs yet.

Here is the Champion R-15: Currently the pressure switch doesn't shut off when it gets up to operating pressure, but it stops building pressure and just dumps the newly built pressure. I think its the diaphragm in the switch, but don't know for sure. Any experience repairing these pressure...

I was also thinking that a box wouldn't be good for them because of the heat! I will definitely look into those silencers! Thanks

That is awesome!! I appreciate you posting those pictures as well! I can't wait to have that kind of air in my shop!! I'll post a few pictures of my compressors here shortly! Quick question, can you measure how tall and how wide your 80 gal tank is? I am not sure if my tanks are 80 gallon or...
