    I don't know what the jaws are made of. They are well worn it appears and I would replace them. Thanks for the heads up on replacement parts.

    Wilton Vise - Can't find much info on it.

    Thanks for the info. I need a vise and was going to clean it up and paint it. I'm not looking to make any money on it, but I'd like to know what it's worth and how best to clean it up. I got it for $60.

    Wilton Vise - Can't find much info on it.

    Hi Guys- Found a Wilton Vise at a nearby auction. It's a Wilton C1 with Chicago USA. Those are the only markings I can make out. It has 4" head on it, swivels and slides work good. Is it better to clean it up and repaint it, or just clean the grime off and leave as is? I've...

    mini welding table fabrication

    Did you drill all the holes in the top? Also, what are the 2 pieces of angle iron for that are welded to the top? If it's for clamping stuff, seems they might get in the way sometimes for a bigger piece, or are they removable? I love the size of the table. That's what I need to do since I...

    Steel Prices

    Check if you have a Dillon Supply nearby. The one in Raleigh has a huge steel shop and can also cut anything you order. http://www.dillonsupply.com/ Only pain is their prices aren't marked as they change constantly with the price of steel and the order desk can be very busy at times. The...

    Vise Identification Help

    Hi, I only have one picture of this vise. Anyone know what it is by chance with that big '3' on the side? It's a swivel base also.

    Why do so many seem to hate pegboard?

    I'm with the haters. Hate pegboard. Garage had it all down one wall. I tore it all out when I redid it. Haven't missed it ever! A well organized tool chest(s) and cabinets beat pegboard every time.

    Workshop 88

    I don't know if it's been said, but I would take some of those more 'final' sketches you did, and frame them and hang them up when your place is all complete. I really like the sketches.

    Chop Saw - Northern Tool - $60 - Clearance

    Yeah wouldn't surprise me. I see the Northern Tool is rater at 2.5 HP (vs 2) and has 300 more RPM's than the Harbor Freight, but who knows how accurate that is. The HF is $73 on sale, so the $60 is a good price then.
