The screw and boss are one piece on this 4" vise. The screw is 3/4 ACME I
assume. I did Google for parts with no luck, is there a source or do I just
get a new one? It's way PITA to make one and we're too busy. I do have
another vise on that workbench, we really need two but I'm willing to wait
for a part if I can find one soon.
You didn't mention the pitch but Mcmasters sells acme threaded rod. Add a
bit of
machining and some silver braze and you have a new screw.

I think Wes is right...
Did I hear that $nap-On bought Wilton a while back?
Snap-On bought Williams, not Wilton.
Wilton and Powermatic are parts of the WMH Tool Group.
