I ended up with a 36" wide partial roll of this stuff years ago and finally used it all up. I need some more for use inside the house where outgassing is an issue (don't want PVC runners). The plastic is really tough and does not smell. I once heard rumors it was from Costco but I have never...

Many years back I picked up these large wrenches at a garage sale. My dad is impossible to buy for at Christmas so I thought these wrapped up under the tree would be pretty amusing (it was). But now that I have them back and after tripping over them the last few years, I am unsure what to do...

I found this at what I thought to be a picked over estate sale a few months back. It appears to be a Dolex model 56T made in France. The jaws are 125mm (5") wide and it opens to 180mm (7"). The vise weighs in at 14 Kg (about 31 lbs). The really nice thing about the vise is the total lack of slop...

I found this in a box in the garage, and I cannot think of what it goes to. It resembles a Wilton bullet vise end cap, but I do not have a vise missing a cap. It is about 2 1/8" in diameter and is made from steel. I looked on Wilton's web site and the show the current C1 endcaps, but they do not...

$200 for a 186lb 6" combo vise with swivel base in nice condition seems like a pretty good deal. It looks to be original paint. New they are in the $1300 range. I thought long and hard about buying it last week but decided it was a bit more than I needed. With all the excitement over the Yost...

I recently ran into a Reed 203R vise, and was impressed how beefy the base and swivel assembly was for a 3" vise. What also surprised me is that the jaws were flat cast iron with no serrations or inserts. Is this normal? Thanks

I found this Wilton vise recently and I cannot find a model number anywhere on it. It has 4" wide jaws (but no pipe jaws) and it built pretty stout (30+ lbs). It is marked "Shuller Park, Illinois USA" nut other than what looks to be serial numbers I do not see any markings on it. Unlike the...

For Sale: Drill press vise with 4" wide jaws. Nothing fancy but it works fine. I have more drill press vises than I need so something has to go. This one has probably been tucked under a work bench in our garage for the past 20 years. The only marking is JAPAN on the base casting. There are...

Tumico 90-3 pocket slide calipers, 3" long, The calipers are new but the box is worn. Judging from the labels on some boxes these were made for a US Navy contract in the early 1950's. So they are almost 60 years old. They are in plastic with a grease coating that should be cleaned off re-oiled...

This looks to be a good deal on a Columbian D43 1/2 vise on ebay for a buy-it-now price of about $21 with shipping. I have the next size up one (D44) and it is a nice medium duty made-in-USA vise. I have no affiliation with the seller but thought it looked like a good deal so I pass it along...

Tubing Appliance Corp crowsfoot sockets, 33 of them in sizes ranging from 1 1/8" to 2 7/8". I believe twelve are duplicates. This is not a complete set. Please note that there do not use a standard hex drive. I figured I could always use a pipe wrench if needed (never did). A few are chromed...

While looking at a different vise that a seller had, he showed me an 8" Reed 108 vise with swivel base. It has some rust but has not been abused. The serrations on the jaws still look nice. It turns slightly hard but I am sure that is due to lack of oil. It is hard to show scale but the vise is...

I have been starring at these open type sockets in garage for many years now. The box full I have fit hex nuts from about 1" to 3" as shown in the photos. The labeling on one of the sockets reads: "* MADE IN U.S.A. 2062 T-A-C-2 3/8 PAT. PEND. *" I have been unable to find anything with that...
