Do people restore these? It's a little rusty but functions fine. Can I just sand it with some 80 grit and spray can it?

Why not leave it as is? It's a fucking vise, not a model a ford -

It's works but it's just a tad rough. I don't know if they sale parts for these things or not. It's got some age to it. It was my grandfathers as far back as I can remember. I know it's just a tool. I figured sanding down and spraying it is just a fun afternoon project to do.Comment

Brake cleaner bath and then White lithium grease on the threads..."Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes...Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man." - Thomas Jefferson, 1776Comment
