Yetti Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Hi guys bought a nice vice and was wondering how old this is? Don't see any numbers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lionel h Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Nice vise, I’m sure she’s old enough to go out on a date . My dad has one just like yours , he’s had it 40 to 50 years. I don’t know if it was new when he got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yetti Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 Yeah its old. I figured about 1930's or 40's. its like new other then the rusty finish. the teeth in the jaws are as sharp as the day it was made. it weighs in about 150lbs Here is another one I bought back in September. its a Parker as well. needed a bunch of work to restore to working condition. this one replaced my one leg vice. I was worried we were gunna break the leg vice with my son pounding on it all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yetti Posted January 7, 2018 Author Share Posted January 7, 2018 well on the hunt yesterday I found a bunch of vises. most were to small. one I found was like the 80lb'r above but busted in a similar way, the previous owner had beat the tail stock till it had a huge hole on top. it was more repair then I wanted to take on. to bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
