can't find any mornings. It's pretty heavy for its size removable pipe jaws non removable jaw plates pretty sure it's cast iron or some type of iron

Definitely cast iron. There are several manufacturers that make similar vises and yours is a keeper. Nice little vise!

TEEN: i've got several and this one is a Wilton that look like yours except yours has some cool pipe jaws. post it up on the main vise thread and a couple of the members might get you more information.

the more i look at yours the more differences i see. mine has two screw holes in the front. sadly the cast iron clamp knob on mine broke. im going to see if my friend can weld it for me but if he cant i will make myself a clamp handle on my lathe

TEEN: i knew mine wasn't an exact match just wanted to post up a picture that i had handy that was close. like i said post it up on the main vise thread and see if any of the other members might be able to help you cause a lot of them don't look in Vintage tools or small threads.

good luck

any pictures of your big Athol mounted and have you used it yet? it's a great vise and i bet if you don't beat on it or use it as a press you can pass it on to your grand kids.

cheers

I've used it. I haven't mounted it yet though. Used it to hold my moms little orange vise to fix it so the swivel locks now. So I used a vise to fix the vise it replaced. Stepdad should be getting the bolts to mount it today but I will probably mount it tomorrow because mom won't appreciate drilling a hole with my drill at 10 at night.

This was the story of my teen years. I used to drive my mom (and neighbors) crazy with my late-night hammering in the garage. I have since learned to be more sensitive

Before I used to be out late because I was into those couple hundred dollar remote control cars workin on stuff. Now I'm out in garage late because I spend time with my girlfriend been helpin her and her dad put a 350 in a vega she might get to use. My neighbors probably prefer me late night in garage than driving my blazer home(shared driveway loud v6 blazer 10 at night).
