F-22, I agree on the cast steel vises for durability and reparation.---I like the 804 Columbian , all steel vises, however they are welded steel not cast.---But I found that most of the Columbians other than the 804s are made of Ductile Iron which can be welded with mild rods, 7018s, and accepts...

Btrnuthatch, I want one of those. :sad: :cry:

Very nice collection RED.---Good stuff.

Real nice 4 pin combo, Corvette.

CRS, I think Vises has a couple of those Bonnies, but I can't remember the sizes.

Congrats on the Fisher, SkyPuncher.---Rare find.---Yep, you can still find people that just don't know what they are setting on.---But it's the only way to find a deal within reason anymore.---Of course yours wasn't a deal, you stole that one. :lol2:

That was a steal at 125.

No, it won't be cheap.---I got mine before they caught on.---Now they are way out of my range.---I kind of like the swivel jaw aspect for holding wedge, and odd shaped objects, because you get more bite per square inch than a conventional vise.

50 years.---Wow, thank you for your service Nopd.---Your hobby shows that one can always learn something new.---And one sure can get hooked on those vises. By the way, I'm not for defunding the PDs, I'm for mass producing them.

Really nice collection, Nopd.---How did you get interested in vises?---There must be a story there.

CRS, that's pretty interesting.---Today a medium house is worth as much as a town.---That's progress. :lol2: :headshake

Ah Shift, what's one more?---After all, there'll be hundreds more before you are through. :lol2:

There's one in the spreadsheet, and it looks to have those hex ends also.---But the pics are a little blurred.---But they could be aftermarket too. :dunno:

Good pic Dannyr.---A page out of history.---Back when people actually worked for a living and didn't mind it.---I like the hands-on assembly line too.---Records on rollers.:thumbup:

Yea 454, even exposed it don't take much to protect them.---Just have to be vigilant.---I've got several vises in three different unheated buildings, and they may as well be setting in water.---They get cold at night and when the daytime heat rolls in, they sweat like a marathon runner.---I just...

Excellent work, 454, on the 436.---I've got one of those too, and they will test the back muscles.---You said yours will be outside, will it be under a shed or exposed to the elements?---My user is exposed, sort of.

T_S, that should be the vise owner's creed and every vise owner's motto.---They're a tool.---Need an anvil, get an anvil.

JJ, I'd keep the PARAMO too.---Their good solid vises, and that one will clean up nicely.---But defiantly the 4 pin 2C.

Smitty, a Coachmaker in a Starrett is a tweak away from a unicorn.---It just don't hardly get any better than Starrett.---In today's world, to make machinery or any products, tip top quality like Starrett did, is to commit industrial suicide.---Elsewise, there is no repeat business. :dunno...

Yea Mr. W, that's the style I have.---I like that style of 800s, 3 to 1 over the conventional style.---And yes, they are whoppers.
