    Blue Point Canon Plug Pliers - New Inserts?

    Just picked up this pair of Blue Point PWC52A pliers for free - but one of the soft jaws is missing, and Snap-on doesn't offer replacements. There are inserts available, but they are specifically for other brands, and I don't want to order some and have them not fit. Anybody deal with this...

    1999 Wilton C1 Casing Nut Replacement

    Recently, some of my coworkers broke the 1999 dated Wilton C1 at our place of employment. As the guy who deals with this kind of stuff, I disassembled the affected area of the vise and the pics attached show the carnage. I have spoken with Wilton (JPW) directly, and they have the # 2901110...

    Need Columbian 606 M2 Vise Parts

    Recently picked up a rough Columbian 606 M2 needing a MAIN NUT & LEAD SCREW. Nut is malleable iron and has "506-4" cast in. Lead screw measures 1.125" diameter and the shank is 21.5" long (Acme threads I believe). PM me, thanks in advance.

    Is this Columbian 606-M2 Vise Too Far Gone?

    Just picked up this Columbian 606-M2 for $40. Story is that the guy I got it from bought it from an old weld shop then figured out that it wouldn't tighten up. I've done some research that suggests the "M2" denotes a swivel base model (correct me if I'm wrong). Issues: (see pics) - Main Nut...

    How Do I Bypass the Ballast On These Old MH Fixtures?

    The space I rent in a red iron building has 20 year old Metal Halide fixtures and the one in my corner finally bit the dust. Instead of replacing the bulb with another MH unit and hoping the ballast is ok, I want to get an LED retrofit bulb (linked -...

    Tell Me More About This Old CP Aero Riveter....

    I just recently picked up this .498" shank CP4447 rivet gun with a bunch of other solid rivet tools from a retired aircraft mechanic's lot. I am trying to source the proper retainer spring for it, as it didn't come with one, and the springs I got in the lot are too small (fit a .401" shank gun)...

    Matco Box Tubular Lockset and Adaptor

    I paid roughly $60 for this LOCK-017C tubular lockset and MLRA-005 adaptor. They did not work with my '89 MB1440 rollaway, so I'm offering them up here. The threads for the adaptor nut have partially stripped on one side, but the nyloc nut still tightens down ok. The adaptor will mate this...

    Very Old WALWORTH Vise Jaw Pad Screws...Obsolete Thread Size?

    I'm going through a vintage Walworth (Boston USA) pipe fitters vise for my buddy. It's missing one of the fillister head screws that hold the jaw pads in. I thought it was a regular 5/16-18 thread, but noticed that my thread chaser was loose in the holes. I took measurements as follows: shank...

    Old Sears 230 AC Stick Welder Rehab

    I was recently given an early 80s Sears ac welder for free. It needs a couple minor things (was told it worked good), but the style of plug on it is apparently not common anymore. My shop right now doesn't have a receptacle for it and it doesn't fit with the dryer receptacle in my apartment...

    Air compressor pressure switch....gasket leak?

    This pressure switch is on a Husky compressor in the garage I rent (doesn't belong to me). Model LF10-4H, works fine, but gasket/diaphragm leaks down below 80 psi overnight. Previously, I have tightened the four screws on the switch body, but now that will not correct the issue. Research has led...
