I got to many of them . need to hit the dumpster at work .

ya vise is little hard to see under shop light at night . . . and it being o.d.g color.

I clicked the link, that's a pretty spendy vise!! Really good if you're working with tube or pipe too.

Lots of guys have a thing for vises. I somehow have not gotten carried away with them. Unless you think 13 is carried away

I so need a real one and have not had much luck finding one for cheap

Nice score!

I've got a good selection of medium sized vises (4-6" jaw) in various configurations. But I really want to add a big mutha to the stable. Something likely in the 100+ lbs range, but most importantly with a deep throat and enough mass to handle the added stress. Unfortunately they don't show up that often around here, and I've not been lucky enough to fall head first into a smoking deal, so that remains on my list for now.

Getting a good deal on a vice is an art. I got my columbia from a flea market for $80. Its an $800 vice and works perfect.

That looks like a nice one though. Pretty beefy. I wish I had the pipe grabber in the throat, its handy.

nice score, I've been looking for a bigger vise for years.

Well done sir

 

[sweetk30]

ya figured the BIG yost was little to much for reg stuff so the smaller wilton shop king be just fine .
