Very cool. I just finished restoring my grandfather’s 1941 or 42 Wilton bullet vice that he used in his auto repair shop since he got back from WWII. It’s still smooth after all these years... until you use it, you can’t appreciate how much better it is than the Chinese vice I’d been using for the last 10 years.
