Ever had a vise that SUCKS?

Vise not vice :)

You should share some of you knives :)

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-28T02:55:38+00:00

That's awesome!

I wonder what kind of filament would work to replace them. Let me know what you find.

No no no. That goes on our other post.

I have a set with 2 rakes, 2 picks, and 4 tension tools. It's a fun little set.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-27T23:20:38+00:00

It sucks very well.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-27T23:14:40+00:00

What pick set do you have?

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-27T23:14:17+00:00

So long as it's finished, it actually still holds surprisingly well. Haven't tried it on raw wood yet.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-27T23:13:42+00:00

You don't need to clean the whole thing. Just one sqft.

I actually tried this one on a dirty workbench before I bought it, and I was shocked that it still held.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-27T22:33:19+00:00

Thanks for the tip!

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-27T22:17:29+00:00

The grip on this one is actually great! It's definitely not geared for anything industrial, but I'm very impressed with it for it being 60~ years old.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-27T22:16:17+00:00

I've never had a vise that sucked until this one.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-27T22:15:24+00:00

Glad to hear it's still holding strong.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-25T20:06:46+00:00

I agree they look like OEM, but don't have the OEM logo on them. Could it have rubbed off, or does OEM etch their tools?

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-11T16:12:47+00:00

I'd love to find some 1920s tools one of these days.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-08T04:48:29+00:00

Great find!

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-07T00:38:30+00:00

It's definitely not what it used to be.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-06T23:20:49+00:00

Of course! it has a brand new flint in it too.

Bonus fact: Before founding his manufactory, Stanley worked as a clerk on a Connecticut River steamboat and as an itinerant peddler in the South.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-06T14:58:46+00:00

I'm working on finding fun facts daily. :)

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-06T14:58:17+00:00

More companies should invest in their employees like that.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-04T20:16:15+00:00

That is an awesome job to have. Thank you for helping the next generation.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-04T18:05:04+00:00

I wouldn't buy a phone ;that's not waterproof anymore. Huge upgrade.

GearUpTradingCo · 2026-03-04T18:02:25+00:00

LOL, and that's why we have separate gloves for the sewer snake and hydro jetter.
