Check my lastest $50 find.
I have weakness for used USA vises and this is my lastest & third addition.
Stumbled across this Wilton 400 (4 inch) machinist that was unmounted, all rusty in an old farm outbuilding. Brought it home, disassembled & cleaned it up & the old girls jaws are almost new. I am not going to bother with painting because most of her paint is still in pretty good shape.
Notice she is setting beside my $60 Wilton 1765 (6 1/2 inch) that I bought from a small fab shop that was shutting down.

Nice...I'm jealous!
