RedDawg, I think I have what you need. You pay the shipping

I have a dynamic jaw, screw and nut from a 4" early Parker combination vise ( thanks to B100 for the ID ) The screw is 14 1/2" long 7/8" dia. and slightly under 4 tpi. I also have a smaller vise screw that is 11 3/4" long 3/4" dia. and 5 tpi. I am looking for a screw to fit a Reed 104 or 204.

I considered this but didn't want to spoil it if someone else could use it. I will put it on the vise parts swap thread.

Nuts The nut is quite a bit lower on the broken vise. Bl100 I think you got it. It is missing the base and the large wingnut. Thanks

Does anyone recognize this vise? I picked it up hoping to use the screw and handle for a Reed 104/204 but the threads don't quite match. The dynamic jaw, screw and nut are in nice condition. I will offer those up if someone can use them. The closest I've come is possibly a Trojan. It has 4"...

Thanks for the replies. When I get a minute I'll tell the story.

On the Prentiss, If I sideline this vise then I need to find another at least 4" vise to replace it in that shop. I have a very nice Reed 104 that sees a lot of use. I also have a Reed 204 in nice shape but it is missing the handle and screw. Actually the Prentiss was the replacement for the 204...

Here are the pics. Clicking on them brings up the larger version.

WOW I'm impressed. You guys are good. I thought I had made a pretty good effort looking for info on this vise but found very little. Now I'm wondering if I should continue using this vise. I'm not rough on them but ... My Reed 104 sees the most use. It really surprises me how often I use...

Catalyze thanks for the response. Anybody know what " LEWIS PAT. " means ?

Hi, I recently picked up a Wilton 8300N bullet vise mounted on a Wilton 303 hydraulic Pow R Arm. They are both in nice condition and work well. The vise has smooth jaws that match nicely. It is Chicago vise with a 1960 guaranty date. I was wondering what knowledgeable folks would have handed...

It is not a quick action . It threads in and out like most vises. The neat little knob on the side is a cam that lifts a tapered pin that locks the swivel base in several different positions. Thanks for the input.

Hi, I've had this vise for a long time and always wondered what it's intended trade was. It is a bit different than any I've seen. It has 4 1/2" wide jaws and 1" screw diameter. I also wanted to try posting pictures.

This seems to be the place. I have a couple of vises I can't find any information on. The first is a Reed 134 1/2 R. It has a 4 bolt stationary mount, the flattened handle mount of the newer ones and 4 1/2" jaws. The beam on the dynamic jaw is the normal style with the keyhole hollow down the...
