Wondering what its worth and if it is classified as a mechanic's or machinists wise

OK, This is the Vise 3" wide jaws and opens 6" number on the side is 10104 300 Made in Schiller Park IL What do you think?

These Wilton Bullet vises got me stumped This is what I know, Wilton makes 3 USA models, tradesman, CO ie combination and the machinist, the prices vary considerably. Well, this is my dilemma, we have many in our plant but we also have one that is I believe has a 3-3/12 jaw width but is...

Can you experts help me with this Wilton 1745 Tradesman bullet vise? This is a 1745 made in the USA model. The spec sheet says it's 17" in length, well I measured this one at work, do they spec it open or closed because this one is the perfect size for my roll away top Thanks david

Yes I did, I'd better rewatch on netfix tonight

LOL, I cant even fill one drawer yet, well maybe if I rounded everything from my basement wood shop and bike shop, but this is just for garage stull David

Look at what I saw at work today on a bench

Hey If you guys want to add some bling to your boxes or cover up some scratches with **** highly polish or brushed stainless, I found this great source. Very reasonably priced with custom bending etc...

My new to me 722 Just ordered the 3 pc polished draw front set, and the drawer pull covers. I may highlight the fronts with orange vinyl some how and build a maple wood top. This can be addicting, but gotta have more bling with the black. David

I took off all the stickers, I'm not a sticker guy any more. what does MILFS stand for? David

Yup, got them in my basement bike work shop, my other passion, racing bikes to keep fit. Very reasonably priced too David

Interesting, does snappy recommend pinching them? What if I just put a bead of silicon to hold them on? I hate like hell to mechanically crimp them, especially what they cost me Thanks for the advice though David

I have an idea about using HD foam for liners. I can have it cut from a foam supplier 3/8" thick x 24" x 80" for 12 bucks It has some tackiness to it so the tools wont slide, only problem is it will show dirt because of the color. Maybe worth a try, it's cheep enough compared to what is...

I just got done watching this video from snap on, how to remove and apply large skins. Maybe you already know, just thought it may help On a second note, what a great idea you have about using vinyl for color Got me thinking, black is an ultimate color background Thanks David...

Hi again, I got a parts break down from my Snappy account manager for my missing drawer pull covers, can anyone tell me for sure which part numbers to use? He didn't have any clue. I'm guessing by the attached list they are 4-pcs p/n: 10-5280 5-pcs p/n: 10-6080 2-pcs p/n: 10-6980 David

That's exactly what my late father and brother would say, if it feels good and it works who cares. I guess I'm the odd ball. I don't use my tools as a lively hood, nor use them often, but when I do I just like the idea if it being made by American craftsman and supporting their families, union...

No I'm not trolling, nor am I a troller, what ever that means. I just stated facts about what I observed when looking at most of the tools that were hanging on the back wall. If there where any made in USA, pliers etc, then they were either hidden or non exsistant. David

I didn't get any pulls with the purchase I think I'm going with polished SS pulls, guards and the 3 panel front drawer set. I think they will give this box the bling I'm looking for, plus hide the small paint chips. After doing that the box will be comparable in condition to a brand new one. Dave

Great, thanks, that sure does look ****, and ain't that what tools are about? LOL David

Well said, yes, I definitely over looked the drawer feel under tool load, will look forward to that, not enough tools yet David
