BRAVO!

The earlier version req'd a modification to the drawer (from Vidmar catalog info), & was described as a custom order only feature. I suspect the same from this style even though the mod appears to be a hole rather than a rabbet. My unit is from 2007. 13 drawers @ 400lb capy each , I am...

You Stole that puppy! Yeah I've not found Any leads on purchasing aftermarket drawers for these. The size tells me this may not be from the "Industrial Cabinet" line but no worries. There are 3 componants for these drawers, the 'channel' that mounts inside the cabinet, the 'slider' that...

Late to the party as usual but one thing I've not heard mentioned is the interior details. First of all the drawers will 'feel' heavy for the size. Then there's the slider carraige, sturdy-not flimsy with ball bearing wheels. Finally the rails that screw to the cabinet & hold the sliders.Amazing...

Would like to see the inside of the drawer & how the lever works. Just bought my first Vidmar last week & would like to add the "only one drawer open" feature. Apparently that feature is a factory only item as the drawer front gets a clearance notch. 59x30x27.75, 9 drawers converted to 13, from...

Hand made gifts are the best.I think the cedar shavings are my fav.

Jake, your welcome.You've worked hard & smart.You've earned it. I didn't catch the part about the spindle being welded.Yowza. The brake job sounds quite appropiate for a Mini w/ HP. I trust you know MiniMania? ( https://www.minimania.com/ss/COMPONENTS,BRAKES,BR_KITS ) All the best J

BRAVO Sir Jake28 ! I visited GJ for the first time in years today to find your adventure. Just had to through all 14 pages.Love it! Thinking I just might have a hot rum on Christmas to honor your efforts. ... and of course I have notes 8-). The original DP220 spindle may have an MT2 bore...

Finally recognized my need for a 'central' tool box. Snooped around on CL and found these old timers. Decent items in decent condition for a decent price.And they're red. Two BlackHawks and a Proto. I'm hoping to clean and polish before filling them up. Wheels are not stock,I might upgrade...

Got this after about a 2sec search. Really,this was too easy.

You mean like Naked !? That would save on the cost of chroming.Mmm, black chrome w/pearl highlights. ZR,it's still red.I Like It 8-) Skies. Jay.

Poppa!

Streamliner mystery solved? :) Take a look blue bolt,I did a little rubbin with a synthetic wire cup held in my hand.Then a few wire brushes once I knew no detail would be lost. I think they we're trying to say..."Precision Bilt / Streamliner". I was only going to post two but what the hey...

What i like about the Scout is that the screw is held in place with a *Ping!FuckIt* instead of the usual swaged washer so it came apart easily. Another job well done.But what was that about red & RollsRoyce scrap??? I think the red works very well on that little vise. Ooh,I see orange...

Thanks Autopts,The rusty one is the 'Little Giant'.I was intriqued by the swoopy lines behind the jaws.And then the round finial doesn't hurt the aesthetics either. I'll practice/test my electrolysis setup before I work on it.Don't want any unhappy surprises (did you hear the one about the guy...

Well I'm not gonna do pink.Or green.Maybe a Hammertone Charcoal then.The lighter tint. It will need to be stripped,cleaned and all that first so don't anybody hold their breath. J

Dunno exactly ZR, I call it a Streamliner.The casting is a bit weak in that area.I noted someone else asking about the same vise a couple 20 or so pages back.I can try a little hand wire brushing to see if that will reveal anything. Whaddya think? Hammertone Gold like the Wards vise or a...

Oh okay, I'll share my little collection.Nothing spectacular though.Plus a couple not shown. About half are from eBay,the others from miscellaneous purchases. Actually my first,the 3-1/2" Reed with a piece missing from the beam,was a 'local' (45mi round trip),vise specific purchase.The 1752...

That must of been the one.I just sat thru the entire thread (could never remember where I left off) and had to reflect. Skies. Jay.
