Vintage South Bend-style lathe collet rack / collet holder assembly with articulating support arm and clamp-style mounting base. Features a perforated steel collet storage plate, tubular support arm, and adjustable yoke/clamp mounting assembly designed to attach directly to a lathe, bench, or machine setup for convenient tool and collet access during machining operations. This early machinist accessory closely matches known South Bend lathe collet racks and retains excellent vintage machine-shop appearance with original industrial gray-green paint and authentic age patina throughout. The perforated holder plate was designed to organize and store collets or small tooling vertically while keeping them accessible near the operator. An excellent piece for South Bend lathe restorations, vintage machine shop displays, machinist tool collections, industrial décor, or period-correct workshop setups.

This thing is in really good shape. I have no idea what Lathe it goes to so please ask questions. It is extremely heavy originally I was intended on modifying it to fit a Lablond and I just don’t have a need for it.

Nice heavy duty MACHINIST VISE… You can use however you want… 3″ Jaw and opens to 2 5/8″… Closes nice and squarely… Used condition as pictured… Some signs of use as you can see in pictures… Looks like it just came out of a machinist/tool room. As you are opening and getting closer to fully open position it does get a little snug… I would rather have snug than sloppy. Overall dimensions are about 10″ x 3 1/8″ x 3. Very heavy for size weighing over 15 pounds prior to being packaged. I will be listing several machinist vises along with other machinist tools.
