Sorry if this doesnt belong here as its not really a tool. But I know everyone loves these older heavy cabinets. I picked up this 18 drawer unit, its very heavy, welded construction. There is only one tag on the top right of the unit that says "Steel Equipment". The drawers only seem to...

I just had to share this. never seen anything like it. As far as I know the stand was for some type of optical machinery. the side legs are solid 3/4" plate , the bottom is 1/2" plate The cool part is you can lower and raise it with the big heavy wheel, and then lock it, there is a metal...

I have a Chas Parker 135 'big bear' vise. Its missing one of the jaws (5 inch jaws on this model). I understand these are not easy to replace. Im wondering if anyone is willing to take on the task of making some for me, im not picky on material. aluminum , copper, steel, even 3d printed...

I picked up this 10 inch bandsaw today. There isnt tag on it anywhere. Its heavy solid cast, the wheels are 10 x 7/8. thats all the info i really have on it . Ill add some pictures. Maybe someone recognizes the factory color. The only markings I see are '875 rpm' on the back.

I have a Woden No. 00 (2.25 inch jaws) i cant seem to find any replacements that small online. I believe its the exact same as the Record No. 00, but no luck searching for either. Im willing to pay to have some made if they cant be bought already made.

I picked up some motors tonight . One is a motor made by Tamper of Montreal, Canada. Other then standard info tag, there is a second tag on the body of the motor saying "H.E.P.C. STOCK NO." and "P56-01-22-02-308-OO10". I cant find anything on google and was wondering if anyone had any ideas?

I work at factory and in one section they make stainless steel enclosures. the welds are grinded and then polished with a light grey 3M polishing wheel , i believe they start out at about 6 inches in diameter. but they are often tossed in the trash once they are about 4 inches in diameter...

I picked up this nice cabinet the other day for 25 bucks.. thought I did really well on the price. Its a Cole 27 drawer (library card?) cabinet. Im planning on making a mobile base for it. possibly a repaint too.

Ive been finding some okay deals on cheap wire wheels for getting rid of rust on vises and other tools. they have the same shaft and locking mech as normal impact bits. so naturally i tried it in my drill and my impact. but the high speed just isnt there to make them too useful, is there some...

Hi Guys and Gals of GJ. Im fairly new here . but been lurking for a few months. Most of my power tools are bigbox junk. so this drill press is my first real power tool. I know little about it at this point. Ill be trying to do some research over the week or so to see what im really getting...

Today I picked up a vise for real cheap, as it was broken and brazed back together at some point. and it also has a broken ear on the swivel base. It also came with 2 pipe jaw inserts, 1 is marked RAE Tool CO. Hamilton Canada , the other is just marked Patent Pending. They seem to be from 2...

Im in the middle of haggling with a gentleman for an old buffalo drill press with a newer motor (1/2 hp) . its an old floor model wich works , but its missing the table. it seems to have all the 'carriage' that rides up and down the post. but its missing the main tilting table.. is this...

I bought a vise today on a whim. Its Rae No. 6 made in hamilton. there are a few problems off the bat with it.. its missing the jaw plates (teeth?). but came with a set of 5 inch ones. There is also 2 screws broken off inside the jaws. It looks like someone may have tried to weld the screws to...
