Three: somebody asked that question last week about that vise. it has the look of a Wilton and the jaws and handle of a Rock Island and i don't have a clue. maybe you can buy it and tell us more about it?

here's the picture of the vise on the Craig's ad so it won't leave the thread when the ad expires.

are you close enough to see it in person and maybe take a few more pictures? if it works and doesn't have an cracks or welds i'd probably pay $50 for it or his asking price if i liked it better in person.

As much as I like vises and such I really don't want to start "collecting" them. You would not believe that if I told you that I already have 3 Parker's, 3 Wilton's, 2 Columbians a Vanderman (which I will show you soon) 2 Kurts and perhaps as many as fifteen others of various makes that I cannot recall. I did not look for most of these vises, they found me! The Vanderman for example happened to be on a fabricating table that I purchased at auction. The guy bidding against me on that sale was in fact bidding on the vise not the table. He later offered me the near selling price for the vise but I declined because I had never seen one so big.
