I took the vice apart except for the jaws. They can be tough to take off, I didn't see the need to remove them. The large bolt holding swivel base was tough to remove. I needed a 1 3/8" socket to remove it but came off. I hit the vice with a wire wheel to remove the grime and years of crud. I am...

Wonder what year this was made? I have been unable to find that info.

Just picked a Parker #88 vise for $80, a good price. It's in good working condition, I plan on cleaning it up, not a full restoration. One of the vise jaw pins was replaced along with the swivel nut handle. I'm having trouble removing the base nut, I think it's a 1 3/8". If I can't remove it...

I found this, looks very close. Bonney rapid transit vise https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/vise-info-thread.355753/page-60 https://www.facebook.com/130785337321535/photos/pb.100057585933654.-2207520000../923436961389698/?type=3&locale=en_GB...

Who makes this vise, it has a weird clutch on the back. It's my friends vise and I am looking for any info pn it. Thanks

Finished with the dog holes, put some Danish Oil on the top. She's ready to go to work.

The quick release works fine on the small vise but I need to be aware of which position it is in.

I'm almost complete with my workbench. I need to add dog holes to the top, I will figure out how to do it.

I priced out new workworking vices, stuff around $100 was just OK. These vices are cast iron and steel, they should work out well. I agree that a wood handle will work out nicely.

Thanks for the info guys

I picked these up on Facebook marketplace for $80 total. At $40.00 each I think it's a fair price. I cleaned them up, everything works and there are no broken parts. On the smaller Wilcox I will replace the pipe handle with a wooden handle. I'm building a new woodworking bench and will mount...

Just add a 2X4 to the top...............

These are great, strong and portable.

For all my low voltage connections I use the Dolphin DC-100S Super B Crimp Connectors. You don't have to strip the wires plus they have a sealant for out door use. I always crimp with a good quality tool. Unless the connection is for a fire alarm system then I must use a terminal strip to make...

I have use the Veto bags for years, no issues at all. I carry the small MB bag most of the time, it will do the job 95% of the time. I will carry the larger bag only when I need to. I added a shoulder strap to the small bag, it works well.

I have the Snap-On one that works great. I just picked up Milwaukee-10-in-1 from Home depot for $17.00. I like long bits vs the short bits of most drivers. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwaukee-10-in-1-Square-Drive-Ratcheting-Multi-Bit-Driver-48-22-2302/204069718#.UrDo3_RUf90
