Today's my birthday so I gave myself a present - Pat Zabrocki - 09-07-2015
I was able to get this beauty for a very fair price. I got it from a good friend and fellow woodnetter so I won't go into specifics. I gave him more than he asked and it was less than I expected.
" /> always wanted one and it works perfectly... just a little cleanup and I'll be having great fun soon!

You abound with Suckage. !!!
Nice find. Will you use it as is or pull the vise from it?

I'm definitely going to use it. I've filed a zillion saws by hand and I'd kind of like to see how this works

You'll have to give us a report on how it works.

Holy Sawfiling Sweetness, Zabman!!!!
You surely suck for that catch. You'll love it for sure. I have several Foley sawfilers, and one of those vises that I use for handfiling, but I don't have that machine.
If you need any parts for it at any point, let me know. I have quite a few spare Foley parts. I have spare carrier and ratchet bars, also.
Edit to add: I'll be in your neighborhood in 3 weeks, by the way.

Great find. Is that the original stand it's on?
Re: Today's my birthday so I gave myself a present - Pat Zabrocki - 09-07-2015
not the original stand. its an old one I found at flea market but is perfect for the vise. Its on a shopfox mobile base so its a nice setup

Sweet! Is the vise cast iron or aluminum?
