Cather Vise

[LedHed]

Interesting vise found loose with another eBay vise purchase (2 for 1). I don’t think the brass screw & butterfly nut are original.

And out of Past comes all kinds of "Stuff" I sure don't remember that one.

Great find. A very interesting piece, though that bobbin cradle would drive me nuts. Is it removable?

 

[LedHed]

Need to get busier JSC.

I like this one Pup because I have never seen another one like it. The bobbin rest does come off.

Never saw one like that but the stem part reminds me of the old Thompson where you'd put the hook in and just screw in the knob - simple and uncomplicated.

An Old Thompson is what I use most of the time Red Knob ...
FM I think the one you have a pix of is the high price one of that day. (hard to tell with small Pix and it would not enlarge)

I copied it so I could post, It was black and white but I know the one you're talking about, fire hydrant red knob.
