Vintage toolmaker’s parallel clamp, a precision engineering tool used for holding workpieces securely and maintaining parallel alignment during machining, filing, or assembly work.
This clamp features two solid steel jaws connected by twin threaded screws, allowing for even, controlled clamping pressure while keeping surfaces parallel. One jaw is stamped “NB,” likely indicating the maker or workshop mark.
The tool shows honest workshop wear, including surface marks, light rust, and traces of old paint, but remains fully functional. Both threaded screws turn as intended and the jaws align correctly.
Ideal for engineers, machinists, model makers, or collectors of vintage workshop tools.
