Here's one place that apparently lists it for sale, though it says it is unavailable right now. Looks like the same vise, except that it now has replaceable jaws. Mine doesn't, I don't think. But they're still over 50% "serrated", or checkered........ after all these years of hard usage. https://www.trick-tools.com/504-12M3-Columbian-Machinist-Bench-Vise-10104_7458 SRH
May God bless America and those who defend her.

That was what I found when I looked around, listed in a few places, but, not available.
Couldnt help but notice you didnt have Phillips head anything holding it down. Good on you, Stan.

How's those internal demons feeling teddybOy ? Yes they do make Phillips head bolts, mostly for Lowes playa types to hold their $79 vises down to old doors. The torque wrench says I have 100 foot pounds holding my forged, fine thread, bolts into the mount. Not coming loose. I say a playa with Phillips head screws like you, dont. Based on conversations about gun parts, I question whether you understand what a forged bolt is, playa. Best, Ted

Just saying. You got the skill set to shop at Lowe's, then you got the skill set to saw up an old door, and bolt a China vise down to it with Phillips head screws. A Lowe's playa' trifecta. Perfect for clamping tubes, and scratching out some scrimshaw. Demons, Schmemons. Best, Ted _______________________ I live in your head rent free.

Sure, dumbo:  They belonged to a late friend of mine who aged out of shooting sports, and then life. He accumulated more than he could hope to shoot and asked me to get it out of his basement. He told me to dispose of it as I saw fit. I donated some to the Boy Scouts, gave a bunch away, and sold some of it. This is how far I got. He didnt have any high power ammunition that I could use. Some of the stuff is just stuff. Other than the .22 rimfire, I cant personally use any of it.      Unopened tin of some old rifle powder. There is a bunch of it. Dude was a WWII hero, by the way. He was on the only US ship that got in the gunsights of a Japanese battleship that had 18 guns on board. USS Gambier Bay. Didnt end well, but, he survived without a scratch. Best, Ted

Sounds like a cool old guy...
An old long gone friend was on supply ships and went down twice in the Pacific and survived another had his bottom teeth took out by a Jap machine gunner on a Pacific island.
Sadly they are mostly all gone...the stories they could tell.
I bet if your friend was here he'd laugh his arse off at yer little man big viSe syndrome....haaaa

He actually used my vise a few times, once to hold some tooling to push out a couple of roll pins, and once to press an alternator bearing.
The guy was trained as an A&P mechanic, did a lot of his own work right up till the end.
I miss him.
Best,
Ted
