Description: As you can see, there is a crack in the slide at the end. Within this slide held the screw retaining key. That is missing and will need to be replaced as well as the slide needs to be fixed. That is all that is wrong with this vise here. You can beat the end to open the vise and close it again. This process is difficult but could perhaps be a lot easier once The paint is stripped, the rust is removed, and the parts are lubed. Please ask if you have any questions. I have the measurements in the photos as well. The swivel functions well. No promises concerning the swing jaw. I'm not even sure if the swing jaw will function still. The pin could be stuck. It might need to be restored . I'm not sure if it will move as designed to varying degrees. Consider this a project for restoration. This vise comes from Indianapolis, Indiana. This vise is quite collectible. This vintage bench vise is a must-have for any collector or woodworking enthusiast. Made by Reed Manufacturing in the United States, this antique original vise is a true gem. The model number 404 and patent dates of 1912 and 1914 make it a unique and valuable addition to any collection. The vise is designed for use in carpentry and woodworking, and its sturdy construction is sure to impress. The brand name Reed is synonymous with quality and this vise is no exception. It would make a great display piece or tool for any woodworking project.
