Picked this handsome chap up yesterday, via ebay. Guy is clearing his dad's garage out and had a variety of stuff for sale, including this Paramo 6" vice for £65 collected.
It's in fair shape - the anvil seems untouched, but the jaws have seen a lot of action. If I can get them off I'll see whether Record jaws will fit them.
This is it next to my Record No. 3:
Jaws are serviceable, for the amateur flailing that I do:
Slight curve on the handle, but I doubt there's any vice of this age with a perfectly straight one!
Came apart easily enough. This was before the jetwash...
It's currently having an electrolytic bath - going to need to turn the parts every so often as they're too big for the tub!
