    Vise id confirmation and date. Is this a Atlas X-Y compound

    I just grabbed this vise for $40. The guy told me it was a Chinese no name. But old looking. So I go get it not expecting much. I get it home and start researching. You could have knocked me over with a feather when I found out it was what I believe to be an old Atlas compound vise. I'm 99.9%...

    Vise id please

    I ran across this. Any idea what it is. USA or China. I guess it's missing the base. Is it worth buying for $25 to try to flip.

    Would it be sacrilege to put a slow speed set up on a Walker Turner 900 drill press

    I have my 1936 WT 900 that never had the slow speed pulleys as an option. That didn't come until later years. (Please correct me if I'm wrong) I came across a rough, newer WT 1200 with all the parts I needed for the conversion. It was dirt cheap for just the upper assembly. So I couldn't resist...
