Hello
I am new to this site, I wanted to share. I have an old Athol Machine vise it was my fathers, he had it in our garage that he built in 1955, I don't know how long before that he had it. It weighs alot and it is original red in color, worn out paint. the jaws measure 5 inches avross, it is very heavy duty. I am in Holiday Florida. I know people collect the old vises. can anyone tell me anything about an old red vise with 5 inch jaws? thank you

Welcome to GJ, bookum55.


There are some vise experts here who can probably tell you anything you want to know about your vise if you can post a few photos.

If I might suggest, let Google do the searching for you. Enter this exact phrase:
athol site:garagejournal.com

I get tons of hits with that. Good luck, sounds like a great vise!

Even if you find the information you want, please feel free to post some pictures of your vise. I would like to see it.
