And now for something a bit different... This was listed on marketplace as a 'pedestal vice'. Thanks to Fierljeppen for the i.d. and crop of the photo. Did a bit of digging and found another ad. Boston Casting Co. Boston, Mass. "Chair vice" It has 9" jaws, opens 4.5", and weighs about 60 lbs...

Here is my James Smart no. 8 coach maker's vice. I haven't seen any others like it.

I already have a Versa-Vise, although it is plain with no accessories. This one popped up on CL only 20 min away so I had to get it. It's in very nice shape, and came with the original pipe jaws and tilt attachment (I was after one). The decal is even in good shape. :beer:

Love that AS 3" you got outlaw!! 45 lbs is a beast for a 3" vise! I have a Ridge Tool Simplex 3" (25 lbs) and a Sawyer 3" (28 lbs) both swivel base. Wow!

Holliston Machine Works Inc. Holliston, Mass. "4 Way Vise" no. 1, w/ orig. box Neat little vise I found. It is very well made for the small size. 1-3/8" jaws, opens 2-1/8", weight 3 lbs. Fully closed 8-1/8". You can swivel the static jaw up and rotate the jaw to 1 of 4 different faces. The...

There are a bunch of vise flippers in close proximity to my location. A couple of them are even on here. The one guy I deal with always has nice stuff and fair pricing. Then there is "the other guy". For example, a nice looking garage fresh Reed 204R was on local marketplace for a while at...

Didn't need these, but they popped up on marketplace for $20 so I grabbed them anyway. These have the notch, I already had an 8" CoBolt without.

Va, if you re-read the description, seller states it is a shop-made base. It looked suspicious to me, too. But i missed that detail the first time I read the description.

Holding up the door glass in a car when the window regulator takes a ****.

The problem here is that in a collection that old, chances are it will mostly be fractional inch sockets and wrenches. Nobody is paying top dollar for them, not many have the need.

I'm sorry you are having trouble. I like the Cornwell tools I have, mostly ratchets as their 30 tooth units are my go-tos. Plus the whole buy local thing. I do agree with you, I wish they would do online sales. Even if it was like Snap-on where everything is full list price, no flyer deals...

I do have 2 rollers, a 1989 Mac MB1500 with a 33" Kennedy 12 drawer top box. And a 4 pc Kennedy stack at work. Plus the 25 hand boxes lol. You have a nice setup and a nice shop!

That is superb!!! Great find.

Which is why I asked since you spelled "Knipex" wrong. Wtf indeed.

If i had more space I would. Instead, I have about 25 or so hand boxes lol

Maybe I am confused or just showing my age, but when were Channellocks considered a gimmick? :confused:

Looks like a unit meant to be bolted inside a full-size van.

That is the patent for renewable jaw faces.

I prefer enclosed screw also. The Pinch Bugs are an exception- like Mark said, they are very rare, and have a neat history. Also made of forged steel vs cast so they are much stronger than a cast vise. The side bracket allows tilting. They were made local to me so I started picking them up. I...

The Pinch Bug? I have both styles. Also made of forged steel. Pictured with a Versa-Vise.
