What does “Columbian” supplier mean, I’ve seen it referenced a few times. Also is that a good or bad thing? I just acquired a 1960 era craftsman vise 4.5”. Mine clearly says made in the USA and is in really good condition. Also curious what’s the original color/paint scheme was for this?

Finished Product:

Time will tell how it holds up. I'm always skeptical with hiring people as I don't trust many folks to put in a hard days work these days but they did a good job, were efficient and courteous. Here is the link to the Yelp where I found them. I haven't left a review yet, but I will give them...

Today they came back, scraped, sanded and polyspartic'd. Will post up finished pictures tomorrow.

Let's not turn this post into a b!tch fest please. California prices are considerably lower is the consensus I've come to since I've priced almost 20 epoxy flooring shops in San Diego, CA. I committed this morning to the company who uses Roll On Rock. Straight shooter, talked for a good 20-30...
