My dad had one he worked on for prob 30-40 years, and I have to admit it brought a tear to my eyes as it was such a part of my dad and his work to make a better life for his family. Rest in peace dad, I miss you every day.

I use this one regularly. Has the claw foot design. Recently set a car down on it (doh!) and broke one of the wheels. Lisle no longer makes replacement wheels. Found one on ebay that I was able to extract from the later model holder and replaced the broken one. This works better than the 6 wheel ball bearing model I had, so I gave the &quot;new&quot; one to one of my sons.

That's amazing that you still use those. LOL, my new one from Craftsmen is occasionally stubborn to move so I can't imagine using one of those &quot;older&quot; ones. Kudos to you.
