RESTORED VINTAGE Rare 1951 ROCK ISLAND 593 BENCH VISE 4 Inch Jaws 43 Lbs USA :
$245.00

Vise was completely disassembled, cleaned, sand blasted, inspected, detailed, painted, lubricated and reassembled. All original. 1 jaw screw was altered by cutting a new slot in it. Still functions and tightens up. New 4 pack screw set is about $20 on if buyer wants to replace. Operates smoothly and works as designed. Most vises I restore, as did this one, take me several weeks to complete. I file and sand down any dings and smooth out factory casting marks. No repairs made on this vise. After first sanding I use epoxy to fill in any remaining dings and then sand again. This is cosmetic only. I restore these as if they will be my own. If I'm spending this much time I want it to look a certain way when I'm done. This vise weighs about 42 lbs. There are still imperfections such as some dings on the main drive screw handle and slide. The meatball and both handle end balls are cold-blued. Non-swivel; must be mounted through 3 holes. Slide in very good condition with no hammer marks. I will ship the least expensive carrier and refund any shipping differences.
