vises

I rebuilt these old Wilton vises several weeks ago. These are for the new campus metals studio. I stripped the old paint and then painted them with a 2K black paint to match the studio. It's been good to get some of the tools, that I've been saving back, out of my personal studio. When I lived in Milwaukee I would hoard tools that I thought might be nice to have in a future teaching space. If I end up retiring these need to come back home with me, but the students can use them right now and I like having decent tools that I get to use for demonstrations and such.
