That Columbian is a beast! Four inch? Is a resto in it's future? I finished up my Vintage Wilton earlier in the year....

Yes BIG, a "604" from the 40s/50s. It is tight and I like the patina. So, for now it will just get a good cleaning and lube.

Here is another delicate tool that I picked up by word of mouth from a friend. This Blackhawk is a beast. It is the "S4" model from approx. the 1930s. It is rated at 8,000 lbs and it weighs close to 200#. It works but will get a complete mechanical and cosmetice restoration.

I try to plan ahead and am successful sometimes [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]. These strategically placed boards will support my overhead air hose reel being relocated from my AZ shop....

Great vise, it will serve you well and your childrens children ! I have a 604 M2 at work, it has seen lots of use and abuse.

I'm envious of the Blackhawk, my Grandad had one I remember playing on as a kid. Can't wait to see that beauty in some color!!
