Vintage Workbench ID

[Bryan-B]

Hey guys, picked up this sweet old bench on a auction, mostly for the old Wilton bullet mounted on it.

Anybody recognize it? I can't find any markings on it. Looks the doors are homemade.

S-w-e-e-t-! The vise is nice too! I'd be tempted to make some metal sliding doors to replace the plywood but that's a cool bench.

That is an industrial work bench. Edsal is the closest if not the same mfg of that unit and they aren't cheap.

Looks like it could be an edsal. The Google machine comes up pretty dry though.

Thanks for your help!

There was another company like Edsal, but my memory is failing me.

Maybe Lyon.

Lyon is another one that is similar and so is Halowell I think is the name. You might like to make yours look like this one.

Maybe Lyon.

Bingo!

Awesome info guys! Thanks! I'm not sure if I'll return it to it's original setup or not. First hurtle is finding a place in the garage...
