This is a commercial vise that (I think) came out in the late 60s early 70s.

Do you use it for some of your tying ? Would come in handy with the hardbodies. I could use something like that sometimes. I bet it works great,too.

Got it off eBay - was up in Canada. Got the instructions (small cutsheet) but never tried it.

Never tried it but you are right about the hard bodies. This vise was made for you.

Its even right or left handed depending on if you want to see the knobs or not.

Would have this thing cranking if I was tying the hard body jigs commercially....

Tried to do a google search for it, love the history of things but could not find it.

Just read that Al and Gretchen Beatty talk about the vise along with the Universal and treadle vise, Rotary Fly Tying Techniques (chapter 3). Need to get that book..

Looks like Polland Electrical was incorporated in 1988 gone in 98.

Led.....how many rooms in your residence are dedicated to fishing! I do appreciate your posts so my wife believes I do not have a major addiction!

My wife knows I have a major addition to fishing.

So does my Pastor. But he's a steel head angler and has it worse than I do. PB, you can tell your wife he went to Scotland last year to catch one fish and had to buy a Spey rod to do it.

Only 2 pb - and they are in seriously bad shape - kind of like hoarders LOL
