    Wilton Vise History

    This appears to be a 1947 in 1941 or 1942 clothes due to the fish hooks. I am puzzled. Does anyone know if the 840 designation on dynamic jaw is 1941 02 1942 period correct? I do not think the second number after the 4 is a 3. Anyway, I took of the several layers of paint and loose rust...

    A February 1970 105R that I obtained last week for $150. I also have a 103 1/2R, a 104R, and a 104 1/2R all with left side dates from the 1940s. They are way up on a shelf with poor lighting..

    Vintage Air Compressors

    I guess your saying that the oil in the crankcase that I changed is not adequate lube via splash? One thing I do know is with no "load" on the compressor, it pushes oil past the rings with the heads off and running. Not a lot but once it is under pressure the rings seal much better with no...

    Vintage S-K Tools

    I am a Snap-on guy but in 1973 they did not make this style 3/8 flex ratchet. I like the fast screw-driver like twirling that this style offers. I have owned and used this particular one ever since. My go-to when using the larger SAE and metric sockets. It's got a great feel in the hand...

    a 1950's Baldor 10" 1.5HP, 220V-3ph bought on ebay for $100 20 years ago. The problem was I was in AZ and it was in NY. My brother carved out a plastic milk crate, attached casters and a handle and brought it on a commercial flight as carry-on. He kept the baldor stand and I fabbed a new one...

    Straightening Welding Table Frame

    Thirty five years ago, this 20 x 30 steel top had a 1/8" warp from a huge welded structure weld stress. Once removed, I built a fire under the plate and straightened it with a sledge. After it cooled I made the mistake of welding it to the red frame up-side down instead of hiding the sledge...
