Very close. I ordered a can of sage. I hope to be playing a batch of bike parts Monday. I'll do some of the vice parts too. I definitely appreciate the help and information.

Nice. Very nice.👍

Thank you. Since it shouldn't be red I will clean it up and paint it as close to the original green as I can find. I am currently vapor honing the powerarm. I may try and polish it since it's aluminum. I'm plating cycle parts so I'll just plate the parts that are steel.

So it let me post only if I took the picture and posted it from my camera. Not my gallery. Weird, but hopefully y'all can see what I'm working with.🤞

I have tried a few different ways. I'll try again.

I sent you a pm. It won't let me send you photos or let me attach as files.

You have a great collection. Thank you for the information. I have a 2.5" with the original greenish paint still visible. I assumed the 2" would be the same color as well. I wish I could post more pictures. The site won't let me.

Thank you. I doubt the red is original. For some reason I can't attach any more pictures.

Hi relatively new here. I picked up a little bullet vice the other day. I would like to ask the experts how modified it is. First off it's red. I assume that red was not an option based on what I have read. It also has screws holding the rear section on. I have only seen pins on the Internet...

For some reason I can't post anymore pictures.

Alright. I guess my vice is not as big as I thought it is. That said my wife says it just the right size vice for my crusty shop. It's a Rock Island 597. The handle isn't 18" like I thought. It's actually 16" long and one inch thick. The meatball is 3.5" across. Included are some pictures of...

I'm at work today. I'll try to get some tomorrow. 👍

Will do that tomorrow. I'm working a 24 hour shift today.👍

Came from an old oil refinery when it shut down. The handle is I think 18" long. It's big.

No tags on my Rock Islands. The one I use almost every time I go in my shop has a meatball almost the size of my fist. It was all I could do to lift it up onto my workbench. It's dam heavy. I don't remember the number on it, but I can literally clamp a car rim in it.

Yes I do plan to turn my own end cap. Yes the jaw caps would work fine. I could mill them out on the Bridgeport and then have them hardened. I don't think the gold makes the vice any more valuable. I'm going to try and find the article again. I am learning here. My other vices are Rock Island...

Nice and thank you for the information and picture. I think I can make some of those jaw inserts. Shouldn't be too difficult. 👍🤔

Like I said earlier. I appreciate any information as I'm definitely new to the Wilton brand. I started out restoring muscle cars " mostly gen one Camaros and Chevelle's" and then to 1960's Rupp go karts, and now early 1970's Honda mini trails. I figured a small vice like this one would be good...
