Title: YARD SALE FINDS 5-31-19
Post by: ken w. on May 31, 2019, 08:08:42 PM

Yard sales were kind of slow today. But I did find three nice items. I spend more taking the woman out to lunch than on these items.
1. Columbian 604 M2 swivel base vise. It has smooth jaws.
2. Craftsman 6" bench grinder w / light. Guy said it was broke. Bearings were spent. More like loose nut on wheel. I had to replace the light socket for $ 5.00 and true the stone up. It needs rests.
3. Starrett No. 700B inside micrometer.

 My god, you can't go more than a mile from your house without stumbling into a beautiful vintage vise!
