January 1, 20188 yr I picked this vise up from a friend for $50. I'm guessing from the open screw box that it is a Columbian........early 1900's?? The screw is in great shape and the jaws are 4 inches wide. Thoughts anyone? She's slated for a clean-up & greasing of the screw next. Here's the little 3 3/4 inch post vise I'm currently using. I'm told it could be a Peter Wright, but I found no markings on the screw box when I cleaned & greased the screw. Anyone have any ideas as to the maker and age? I'm told the smaller vises like this could be older.
January 1, 20188 yr Yes I definitely think Colombian the screw box,leg shape and hinge plate looks so , it looks like a c on the top of the mounting plate .
January 2, 20188 yr Author That's what I thought Lionel. Maybe some others will chime in on the smaller one that looks like a Peter Wright
