Hello. I have an unusual vintage Wilton vice. I will try to attach photos. I can’t find very much about it on the Internet, and I would be very interested in any information anybody could provide on this model. Thank you.

Hey, that's an interesting vise! I never knew Wilton made anything like that. Here is a catalog excerpt from their 1971 catalog:

There are several other rebrands of that Wilton Universal Turret Vise, such as my Sheldon:

Thanks for this information. It’s very helpful.

I’m a hobby woodworker, and I love tools, but I think I may let this go, because it’s really more than I need in my shop. Any ideas on appropriate marketplaces would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
