    New project

    I just thought it looked kinda cool and old. I have a Yost 33C for anything heavy duty. And when it come the the Japanese and steel, hate to say but I take theirs over all any day. Any pocket or kitchen knife I buy is always Japanese steel. They’ve been perfecting it forever. Thanks for the...

    Soft vice jaw covers

    I’ve been looking to buy a set of soft covers for my vice and have noticed they are made of everything. They are all around the same price so that doesn’t matter. Urethane, nylon, rubber, etc. Any input would be appreciated. Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

    What Tool Finishes Can Be Damaged By Chemical Cleaning Such As Evapo-Rust & Vinegar?

    Re: What Tool Finishes Can Be Damaged By Chemical Cleaning Such As Evapo-Rust & Vineg Pretty much any rust remover will oxidize the base metal if left on too long. Any that I have used say to apply only to rusted areas Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

    Restoring combo vice.

    Thanks. It’s still solid about 75#. I was hoping for another jackpot. About the same time got a Yost 33c. Looks barely used for 100 Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

    Restoring combo vice.

    I picked up this recently for a good price but I can’t find a single marking on it. Like whoever restored it last removed everything. It once had a metal tag on it. That’s it. I was thinking maybe Yost but really haven’t a clue. Any help would be appreciated.

    Need help identifying vice

    First of all, hello. I’m new here. Anytime I do search about a vice, I usually end up here so I thought I may as well sign up. I bought this one a few days ago and I can’t find a single casting mark anywhere. There are some small holes that appear to be where a tag was once attached. Any help...
