Picked up a few things for the shop this week. Got myself a Craftsman drill press on Craigslist. It works great but I plan on cosmetically restoring it over next winter.

Next is a parker vise my grandpop had sitting outside his shed for decades. Its in really good shape, and its huge. (this one was a freebie)

Then we have a Snap on Diagnostic machine. I found this on Craigslist. I was looking for a older sun analyzer for decorative purposes, but this matches the color scheme better, and it works! Even the oscilloscope works properly.

I just bought a similar Parker vise. Mine is a bit older than yours. Is yours a model 488 ? or close to that. I wish mine was is as good a shape as that one.
You should post it on the "Vise Thread" It is cool to get old tools past down to the next family generation.
