This came up on CraigsList for $650 - I can't tell if it's a drill press or a mill or some hermaphrodite. Any clues Thanks

I can't figure this one out - Is it a Drill Press or a Mill or some hermaphrodite. I fellow near Asheville is selling it on FB for $600... Any ideas?

Good idea - Could be. Thanks

Had this for years - Haven't been able to find anything like it. Any Clues? Steve

No doubt about it. Thanks

Hi - It weighs about 16 pounds and has 5" jaws.

These are small 1/8 to 3/8 auger buts made by Russell Jennings. They are not cut downs of longer bits but stubby bits. I've never seen these before and cannot find any reference to them online. Anybody have any clues

How do I PM you? At FIERLJEPPN?

Be glad to - It' in bad shape but this is all I have. One note is that the literature refers to them as having been made by the Lewis & Lurie Manufacturing Co. where this example is made by the Lewis & Lurie Vise Co

I found this battered & broken vise at an antique store. Through DATAMP I located the patent record by date July 25 1893. It's made by the LEWIS LURIE VISE CO. I'd be interested in any info.

1 HP = 745 watts 8 Amps at 120V = 960 watts = 1.29 HP

I've got these two USS & SAE complete Thread Restorer sets. I can't faind any reference to them anywhere - They are marked "DT 98" and "DT 99" - Anybody seen them? They appear to be un-used. Very clean.

Yup! 26.5 Pounds

Well - Here's a couple of photos... I bought it at the Goodwill. It's almost impossible to find any info on it. There is a number on the back casting (shown) The jaws are 7" by 3" in either direction, opens a full 9". It weighs 226 pounds and is rapid acting.
