Looks like jewelry.

I recently picked up a really nice Milwaukee 10" bench grinder. I also have a 6" Craftsman that has served me well. Anyway, I am looking to possibly dedicate the 10" to just grinding duties and use the 6" solely for wire brushing. My question is, what two grinding wheels grits would you...

I used adjustables multiple times this weekend. Definitely a tool everybody needs. I have a wide variety of sizes and they all get used around the farm.

Then after popping the cork on my wallet, I bought a few more things. One tool I have been lacking a quality set of is hex keys. I have been looking at these Bondhus sets online for a few months, but never pulled the trigger. They have also been out of stock everywhere. Well today I found a...

My dad and I went out to the Springfield Swap Meet today. After a slow start, we landed on a vendor's booth that made my day. $5 Wright Tools impact socket set $15 for this complete, almost new SK socket set $45 for this 3/4" drive Rockwood socket set with Thorsen and Williams ratchets along...

I passed on it. I didn't want to ask anymore questions. It was literally hours between when I would ask a question and he would answer, even if I wrote him back right away.

He finally got back to me and said the jaws measure 5 1/2" across. So I am even more lost. I guess it is possible that it is a 106 1/2, but can't find any pictures or info on those.

Doing a bit more investigating. Assuming the jaws are 5" wide, that would make the total length of the vise 21", which is right in line with the length of a Parker #106. So I will probably pass on it. He was asking more than I wanted to pay, but I was assuming a 6" or 8" vise and was going to...

Yeah, I was also trying to use the floor boards to scale from. If the floor boards are 3" wide, that would make the vise a 5". I sent the guy multiple messages asking what the jaw width was, and he kept ignoring me, so when he finally acknowledged the question, he said "I don't know how I...

The more I look at the pictures and knowing that the green vise is a Little Daddy, and I am guessing a 4" jaw on it, that would mean the parker, if scaled up, is probably a 5" jaw, which makes sense if he thought it said it was a 10e, when in fact it says 106.

Yeah, I agree. I'm actually worried it is only a 5". I may actually pass on it since the guy wont tell me the actual jaw width.

I'm supposed to go pick this big vise up tomorrow. I have asked multiple times what the jaw width is, but the guy keeps neglecting that bit of info and just says it is a railroad vise. He said the model is a Chas. Parker model 10e, but im guessing that should be a 106 or 108. So I ask the...
