They are both the same family & capacity (1-1/2, which is 3 ton). The larger one is the "B" model which has a 18" height between base and ram vs. 11-1/2" for the smaller one.
Yeah, I saw your posts on broaching / needing an arbor press. The prices on the few that were linked on the west coast were nuts. This one wasn't a steal, but the price was definitely fair.Those are nowhere to be found here, there is some suckage going on here....

125.00 spent on this...
SAE and Metric Bondhus Hex Key sets...
Grizzly 6" bench top grinder with Norton Aluminum Oxide wheels...
Wilton 9300 vise with rotating base...
1) 1/4"x1-1/4"x 6' flat stock
2) 1/4"x1-1/2"x 3' flat stock
Photos:
A friend asked me to make the some brackets extensions for his motorcycle... something simple. Just 4 flat pieces 7" long with 1/2" holes on each end... rounded ends... figured I would get the material to do those while I was there... Also thinking about the grinder tool post that I want to make...
Was not going to get this one... but looked too cool to leave it behind... 3" vise.

that's good, don't beat on your vise, use an anvil... or get a piece of rail. Don't get a HF anvil... they suck and are soft.... returned mine years ago within 1 day... so bad.. copper dented it.

Well that definitely will not get you out of the "YOU SUCK" chair, at least for awhile.
Nice haul.
