Do you mean Versa Vise? A very handy piece of kit for woodworking, and boat building.

Last week I saw a parker vise in Watertown, Wisconsin at Clara's Antiques. 100 E Main St. 53094. Ph. 920-262-2007 It is a large vise, don't know the number.

so- from my earlier post - does anyone recognize the metal parts that were with it- they do not go with the vise I got- but the seller said they did come with another Parker vise

the iron parts seem to be some sort of auxiliary jaws

They look like pipe jaw inserts.

could be - there is a radius to the face - the vise's bar would need to have the curve on the top, wish i could have picked up the vise as well- looks like it would be a handy size

The copper bits are soft jaws, the cast iron pieces are pipe jaws which fit over the stock, but not for a Parker vise.

Can anyone link us to the list of various Parker vises by number? I remember it, but can't find it now.

edgarspencer 03-14-2018 04:22 PM

It’s no longer listed on the web. The owner took it down.

Bill Murphy 03-15-2018 07:47 AM

Edgar, PM me your cell phone number. I have a couple vises in the car for Baltimore, including the one with the broken mounting bolt that you asked me to bring. I will PM my number. Kevin and I usually get to the show about 11:00 or 12:00 Friday.
