What a day!! :rocker: I went to the swap meet as I do every Sunday morning. There wasn't much out there today which is unusual for a Sunday. I was on the last isle when I spotted a small vise from a distance. There it was in all its glory, just waiting to be mine. The guy was asking $125 and we settled on $100. The vise is in perfect working condition and the really didn't want to sell it, even at $100. I told him I'd take good care of it and I wasn't going to flip it for a quick sale.

As some of you know, I've been looking for a Wilton BB for about 10 years now. I've came across a few and they we always $250 + which I refused to pay.

Anyway, here are couple of quick iPhone pictures:

Cute little thing. Does it come with a belt clip? :D

Seriously though, nice find. I've been looking to replace an old wore out Craftsman and this forum has warmed me up to the Bullets. I'm on the hunt too, but I need the Baby's Daddy.

They're out there. :thumbup: I have about five or six including the baby. I usually pay around $100-$200 for them with the largest so far being the 4-1/2".

Well done Exeller8 !
You **** !
My biggest fear is running across one for stupid cheap and being about 10 bucks short on cash and someone breathing over my back with dough in hand.
