    ISO Wilton Model 303 Pow-R-Arm Tag Image

    I'm looking for a high resolution photo or flatbed scan of the Wilton tag at the Instagram link below. I need it to create the etching mask in order to make new ones for my restoration and a few more of my friends' units. The one shown is from a Model 303 hydraulic Pow-R-Arm. I'd be willing to...

    Vintage Grinder Sticker Reproduction

    Mattblast, have you ever had an opportunity to make labels for the Lisle Model 91000 drill grinder? I have contacted Lisle and today they confirmed they are no longer supporting this model with parts including labels. I created new vector artwork in Inkscape that is a very close match. Would...

    Toolbox Caster Advice

    I recently refurbished a pair of 1980s era Snap-On bench cabinets (fixed base, designed to support a fixed bench top). I added heavy duty 6” x 2” urethane casters, 2 fixed and 2 swivel per box. The casters were rated well on the site from which I ordered them, but now that they’re installed...

    Baldor Grinder Motor Identification

    I'm midway through restoring a trio of Baldor 1021W grinders complete with pedestals. The units came from a factory auction where I bought based on photos of a lot of grinders. My three were all missing the embossed metal Baldor motor nameplates by the time I took possession of them...

    Vintage Grinder Sticker Reproduction

    PM sent. Thanks for considering my request! My etched brass tags were all made using toner transfer masks and ferric chloride etchant. The toner mask artwork was created in Inkscape and printed using a laser printer onto a material called Peel-N-Press Blue ("PNP Blue") transfer paper commonly...

    Vintage Grinder Sticker Reproduction

    This is really beautiful work--you've really got the process dialed in. Are you still offering tag/label replacement for grinders? I'm about to the point of paint on a set of three Baldor 1021W grinders to which I'm adding the lighted eyeshields from the 1021WD deluxe option package. I'm...
