Gazzar Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 I never see these bargains on FB. I suspect it's down to the fact I go into it once a month, and am accessing it via an air gapped dedicated very old device. Using a pseudonym. Probably a good thing. I've no need for more things to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderzander Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 I just picked up a No.3 Record for £10 😊 Obviously a ton smaller than that - but it’ll clean up to make a nice vice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderzander Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 This one was my Dad’s - which needed some tlc too .. looks patchy in the photo - but the paint looks fine in real life 🤷🏻♂️ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
De Ranged Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 I love that anvil on the back.... you just can't buy stuff like that now, I've got two 4" record vice's sitting in my projects cubboard that are waiting for an improved fireball mod... both have damaged screw nuts, I'd love to add a big anvil to the back like that catch is it would kill my weld to the casting.... too many projects between now and them anyway lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muddy Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 I’ve been having a tidy up this afternoon and dug these out, I currently use the middle Parkinson no.8 with a 5” jaw but have previously broken the other one (replacment chin behind) I’m wondering whether the record would be any better? for you vice pervs are any worth more than the others/ too good to use properly? Also the Record jaws have an almost double thickness bolt head is this a record thing? Can replacements be bought or is it easier to make some? Will.
