Need some assistance repairing a Columbian bench vise

I think RRR is right. I have a vice that does the same thing. I just tap it with a hammer and it slides apart easily. I think my C clip is missing also. Lol
Hey! Once I get mine fixed, send it my way and I’ll fix ‘er up for you for free!

Of course you’d have to pay for shipping, both ways…..

:rofl:

(Edit: Just noticed you’re in Blaine. Well, heck! I guess I could fix it for you….after I fix mine, that is!)
