They don't carry the Yost vises in the store, I had to order it online.
Took about 5 days to get it.

LordDiesel, you changed your avatar.
I'll be posting more pics in my other thread.
It's kind of an interesting vise, some parts are welded some are 90,000 PSI casting.
I sought out a smaller yet strong vise, and I think I found what I was looking for.
Priced right too.

Did a search for forged vises on Amazon. Found the 4" for $142 and the 5" for $180. The magnetic rubber caps (if you just don't feel like using another method for soft grip) is $26.
All prime eligible (and returns should be covered as well).
Did I ever mention I like shopping?

Timmy,
I saw the vise on Amazon, but wanted to use up my HD gift card.
I didn't see the jaw caps - gonna need those!
Thanks

The caps are worth a shot at least. If they're junk, easy return
I just wish I had somewhere to put a vise... and the money to get one.

So far so good, I've only had to use the larger pair 1 time so far but I'm very happy with the purchase.

Found this in a corner at work under a broken lathe.
I asked my boss about it, quickly throwing in a decent offer to secure, I'd been looking for something to put above my workbench for ages. A rewire will be needed but it's ideal.

They are ****. I bought them as well last week and was hoping they were made in Taiwan and nope, China made ****. Ton of side to side play, poor finish, weak grip. I returned to Amazon asap.
Looks like a copy of the Ridgid F Series German made Vise. Where is it made?

I've had really good luck cleaning those snap on grips with goo gone fyi. Makes them look like new

my new Stahlwille openbox 14 long series combo wrench set! From left: Openbox 14 6-22mm, middle: Openbox 13 6-19mm and the last is also openbox 13 up to 24mm! It was pretty hard to cut the foam inlay for the longer ones on the left! Very very tight on space for 17 wrenches!Harrison2

Is that the set made in Taiwan ?
I was thinking about getting it next time I have a 25% and some surplus cash to burn.
More cool drivers from Canada.

Since the last handplane was brand new, I figured I'd balance it out with an old one.
100+ year old Stanley #8. It's a monster of a plane. It will need restored, however.
It's in the back, to give you an idea of size compared to all the others I own

Finally Scored the Armstrong version of the Easco/Craftsman RHFT in 3/8"
I have been looking for this ratchet for about two years! The same part # is still available new, but they completely changed the style to the crappy mechanism used in current CM round ratchets (no thumbwheel, quick release and half the tooth count-40)

I have the new style, I really like it but people seem obsessed with those old RHFT versions for some reason

That is one fine ratchet.
yes... just one thing to note... the handle on mine will not tighten enough to keep the bits from slipping but using the extension worked (extension will go all the way down into the handle)
asked someone i know who bought the same set and he has had no issues with the bits slipping

I saw the VDE set, which I'll grab next time but could not find the VDE drivers in the tool section. I'll have another look next week. I was surprised to see them in there, almost tempted to buy some spares!

Got one of the 11 piece Kobalt sets off of eBay that another poster mentioned in a thread the other day.
Went on the bay and pulled the trigger on this set, last one according to the auction info
