I ran across a rather small Bullet design vise recently and couldn't resist buying it. The vise is very well made and was tagged Duracraft Tawian 1981.The listing said it was an NOS Item found in a hardware store that had closed. The vise arrived in it's original box and was covered in layers of dust that had combined with the oily film applied from the factory from sitting on display for years. I disassembled the vise, cleaned it and applied early 60's light blue metallic Pontiac engine paint which seems to be close to a color Wilton used on some of the Bullet vises, applied appropriate grease and I am pleased with how well it looks and functions It probably won't get used much, but it's good to have around and it fits in with my other vises.
