Title: Picked up a vise today.
Post by: m_fumich on September 25, 2019, 03:47:37 PM

After my sister-in-law’s drug addict ex-husband stole my vise alone with everything else he could get his hands on, Ive been without a vise. I haven’t had a regular need for one but I don’t like not having one.

Anyway......

I ran across this Craftsman vise locally. The lady I bought it from said it was her Godfather’s and he died recently. They’re cleaning out his shop.

I paid $50 based on the pictures alone. I couldn’t risk not getting it. I’ll pick it up this weekend.

Can't beat that deal -- good vise, and definitely quality.

I pick those vises up a lot. They are well made. Good find.
