While mowing my front lawn this week, my neighbor came out to say hi and chat a bit. After a few minutes, he invited me back to his place because he said he had something for me.
It was a big Wilton combination vise. Quicker than I can post this message, I ran back to my shed an grabbed a rolling cart. Within the next couple hours, I had stripped all the old chipped paint, degreased the hardened stuff on the inside, got it primed & painted and reassembled.
Here is the vise cleaned up. Turns out to be a 5" C2 in excellent condition and weighs close to 100lbs. Not bad for totally FREE!!!
