That’s the 7491 a larger more expensive saw. Snagged a lightly used DWE7480 on Craigslist at a good price. Seems there was a change to some OSHA rules regarding blade diameter vs table size making the Dewalt 745 and 7480 out of compliance.

That link is to a 8” saw 7485

I can’t find it “within 100 miles” of any zip code i put in. And not available online.

I was looking to buy one of these. I could not find a 745 because the 7480 was replacing it or something. Then seems like the COVID hit they discontinued both and now only have 8” saws and the 7491 with the stand and $600 cost. I very specifically don’t need the cart. Anyone have a line...

Well here are the “after” pic

Drove 3.5hrs today to pickup a Craftsman 5197 for $100 Guy was also selling some other vise but he was holding the craftsman for me. Some guy shows up to purchase the other vise. Seller thinks he’s me and sells him the craftsman he previously told the guy was sold. The other guy was shady...

I really like the Wera. Bought one for work ended up getting one for home.

If no one has asked yet. I’d like some info about the weatherproof model

I now have 2 Wilton Cs. Just need a C2 and a C0. Lol Where is the database. I’d like to add my two 70’s era vises. ETA almost forgot the baby bullet I had powder coated pink for my wife’s desk ETA what decal goes in the shield shaped relief in the C1 dynamic? Anyone making repos? Thanks

Picked up the Wilton C1 today. 1978 vintage. Spindle/horseshoe groove is badly worn. Everything else looks great. Got it cheap enough I’m considering just ordering a new spindle assembly. Unless of course someone has a used one for sale here. The p/n looks to be 2900030. Anyone know the...

I hope you’re right. I restored a C3 and it’s so damn big I don’t know what to do with it. I want a CO or C1 I was thinking this one was a C2 which is still a bit large for my needs. The price is right so I’m getting it either way.

Sounds like 5” just looks different than most pics of C2s

Any info on this guy? Hoping to pick it up tomorrow. Is it a C2?

She’s not the only one wife requested a Baby Bullet. It’s at powder coating now. Lol. There has been a vise in some state of restoration on the kitchen counter for the past year. Currently a freshly restored Wilton C3. I’m not sure what to do with it.
