Millers Falls Vise Restore

[Compressorguy1]

Picked up this antique little 2-1/2” Millers Falls model # 1700 vise while visiting antique shops in the NC Mountains for the fall leaves, which were SPECTACULAR this year. I have no idea how old it is. Got it stripped and painted and even found some reproduction decals. There’s no slop or play and the jaws fit perfectly square and flush. I like that I can easily move it with the clamp mount. This should make a great little hobby vise for my smaller projects!

Wow, nice job! That fresh decal is the icing on the cake too!
