SCROLL DOWN FOR ADDITIONAL PICTURES  DESCRIPTION: Wilton Model WE 904 Bullet Vise.  It has 4" jaws and swivel base with double locks. The vise is a semi-early vise from the Chicago plant before they moved to Schiller Park. It has a stamped date of 5-50, which means this vise was made in 1945 and had a 5 year warranty until 1950. Measures approx. 14.5" long by 6-3/4" tall and weighs 36.5 lbs. so it is a nice medium sized vise. CONDITION The majority of the original paint was gone so I decided to strip the rest as best I could - it still has a dark patina which I kind of like, but you could always paint it if you wish to do so. It weighs 36.5 lbs. and built like a tank.  Jaws are still in very good condition. The anvil surface has some hammering marks near one edge.  The two swivel base lock bars have a minor bend to them. The main handle bar has several striking dings so it doesn't always want to slide back and forth perfectly smoothly, but it is straight.  The jaws close and open smoothly.  SHIPPING:  I will ship this for free to the contiguous 48 states via FedEx Home Deliver or FedEx ground.  SIGNATURE REQUIRED at delivery.    Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico buyers, please contact me for a shipping quote.  Feel free to ask any questions.
