A general rule of thumb for determining shear capacity is if the excursion needed causes the operator to fart you’ve found the upper limit. A shart is a clear indicator the material is too thick.

1:00 ok so you have been doubling your money every hour for a week. That is 24*7 = 168 doubles. At the end you had an extra $4. So if you started with X dollars and ended with X+4 dollars, that means (2^168)*X = X + 4. Solving for X = 4/(2^168 -1). In other words you started with something like X = 1.06911E-50 dollars. Times must be tough Tony! EDIT: one week, not two!

Ken Gamble Exactly! Tony was probably speaking in KZread money, which we all know isn't all it's cracked up to be.

The brace you welded to the shear was a mistake. if you look at one of these shears from the back the body is made of a single large plate formed into a S shape this S shape tends to straighten out under load forcing the blades closer together. This is designed in to keep the shear tight during heavy cuts rather than opening up. Your brace effectively blocked this feature by bracing across the S at the back of the shear. Judging by the size of the shear I'd guess it would be happy cutting 3/16 or 5 mm material.

It will probably not affect the pinching as the pinching happens mostly from the stretching of the "S/Z" shape at the blades rather than compression in the back, however it will giv it better torsional stability as he stated, so in my book thats a win, except for beeing able to keep at least the main part of the plate while trimming it, where the trimmings are forced away, but now the "keep" path is blocked.

Always a guy saying "dont weld...... BeCaUsE HeAt." Clearly works for the intended materials, and food for thought my big shear has more trouble with thinner material than thicker just takes alot more force but thicker is always cleaner. Edit: was responding to the guy saying chuck it for scrap, I see how it's a feature for the s shape to close laterally under heavy load. Keen eye!

This is the first time I see You rebuilding something for worse. You totally destroyed one of that shears most genial, simple and important functions - That is; cutting unlimited lengths of metal. I totally understand you had good intentions, but better trust the original makers, they knew exactly what they were doing - in opposition to many of todays manufacturers - at the time it was made: full of tradition with the highest craftmanship. Yes, it is possible to do minor improvements , like a lock for the handle, if it is not there already - for example. But the seeming simplicity of that cutter, is part of what makes it genial. With that unloadet from my heart - You Do host my favorite KZread channel - and I , plus friends of mine, do raise You to the skyes in appreciation. We just love Your knowledge, humor and ingenuity, very lucky to have You share it with us :)

Tony, I have an identical shear made by Mubea, made in Germany I think. You may want to notch your gusset, the offset allows you to cut through something like a 4 foot sheet of metal, with the reinforcement your limited to ten inches or less.

@alisdairherd9501

Grave digging here but the original hold down had a return spring for the lever so it remains upright when not in use.

Odd I'm the only one to know this. But it's quite obvious with that shear being that old it's extremely likely the threads a .36 cubit Carpathian 59.elventeen degree ark thread with filigreed crests and precision sheepsfoot hammered split root radi. Machinery's Handbook no. 0000.01 has some good details for duplicating it without CNC. :-) Either that or one of those damn Whitworth's maybe? Great video as always Tony, and even better now since I've learned the hard way to not be drinking anything until there finished.

G'day Tony. I've got an identical bench shears to yours and I've never had a time when I thought it needed strengthening, so be it. It is easy to cut a large sheet with the throat as it is, it's just a case of feeding the lead below the frame as you hinted but it's easy. I made a 17 drawer tool bench for my son with it which is the first video/montage on my youtube channel. My decal is missing also but I can cut 2mm mild sheet easily, 1.5 is a dream, I think the original spec was 3mm, but I wouldn't bother to try. Excellent video as always, Peter

spectacular find cobber. Incredible just how good a condition both of those pieces of equipment were/are. Cheers for sharing :)

Both really nice finds. Very nice restorations.

Loved the stop motion at the end. Lots of fun.

Seriously, One of the best channels on KZread. I never miss a video

Looks like you have your new welder dialed in.... beautiful looking welds Tony! Nice score on the shear & vice! Happy Trails

Hey, thanks for giving new life to old tools. Great job.

Greetings from Norway, old video, but, as an relatively new subscriber I try to watch all of them. Got to say - Love it, both the video, the rants, and the skills :)

What a great find,love the spinning vice it has a mind of its owne👍

That was some cool stop motion animation with the vise! These videos are awesome! Thanks Tony!

Hi Tony, you don't know how much I appreciate the fact, that you give the measurements in imperial and metric units. Thats a whole lot easier to watch as a german (and every other country). And the stopmotion in the end was just so smooth to watch :)

"That 400 year old oil smell" lol, that's a perfect description, it brought back memories of my grandfathers tool boxes. Thank you for that and thank you for all you do. It's nice to have interesting things for my brain to focus on and your brand of humor work perfectly along side.

Great video, I'm always looking forward to the next one.. Thank you sir.. "Mr. Pete", That made me chuckle out loud..

My friend has this exact model of bench shear. Since it is in Poland, well... It had to be known globally. Another great vid! Thaaanks!

Oh man! - At this point I'm already chuckling at the mere discovery of a new TOT video. I can't watch these with people around me any more! Luckily my wife had gone out right after I saw that this video had come up. Very nice stop motion on the vise! Also, I love restaurations of old things like that! Often they have much more character than modern equivalents, and the feeling of giving old things a new lease on life instead of mindlessly purchasing new gear is somehow very nice! I've recently restored an old coffee grinder with a fresh coat of paint, new bearings, burrs and stainless bolts, etc. - I like using it much more than I would have with a new one!

Always enjoy your videos. Extremely creative and entertaining

Wow two great finds brought back to life, awesome 👏

That stop motion of the universal vise is wild.

Papa Tony has returned!

Tony your channel is in the top 3 best of all time in my opinion, and I KZread alot, your content is right up my alley and your humor puts a smile on my face, but what I enjoy most are your vids that are 15 mins or under long. I can't wait to watch when I get a notification from your channel but rarely have 30 mins at a whack to sit and enjoy the whole thing! I guess what I mean to say is that I get more joy from watching a shorter vid than having to break it up into 2 viewing segments. I know most of what you do takes longer to demonstrate and that's the reason for the length. I won't stop watching because of it but I have to filter through some episodes because of my time constraints. Keep on doing what you do and I'll do my best to try and keep up! Thanks

That vise turned out beautiful! Also, I wish I could weld like that!

Hi Tony - I have a bench shear out of the same factory as yours. Bought it for $60 new in 1978. Like you I figured it would be more useful with fence and table - I also put a couple of half inch T bolts above the fence to hold material down when cutting. I have used mine to cut lots of 2'' by quarter flat bar with no problems. I believe it was called a quarter inch bench shear when I bought it. I would post a photo but can not work out any way to do that. I really enjoy your videos - I am an engineer who started life as a toolmaker when people still filed holes (I like your filing machine!) So Hi from Australia.

Congratulations on the vise; She’s a beauty!

I remember my grandfather had shears that looked exactly the same. I also know it was made by him. And it was actually mounted on an old log - with roots. All this love for DIY he passed on to my father, who later passed it on to me :)

I love starting my day with one of your videos.

Shots fired Mr. Pete LOL

"I'm not sure who's keeping who warm" HAHAHAHAHAHA DEAD

I love when some old piece of tooling still in great shape comes back into use.

Brilliant idea with the strong back modification, i have an older jointed one that's never been too tight even when new (probably) and i really have no use for the jointed function, so i'll do the same.

I admit that I watch a lot of videos at 1.5 to 2x speed to get through them. Having said that, I always watch your videos at regular speed so I can enjoy every bit of them. Thank you

That animation on the end! So much love put into single video.

Tony! I watched the video, and half the time was spent laughing, and the other was spent saying "duude, are you serious???" 😂 thank you for the awesome video.

Another great video. Nice finds. I have a little shop with lots of cool items like this that could use a break down, clean up and paint job. And I would do that if it wasn’t so much fun sitting on the couch watching you do it instead. 🤣

Mr Pete was here.... LOL.... that was funny, both cleaned up real nice.

5:30 DadGUM, that's a beautiful weld! Your humor and skill keeps impressing me, Tony! I just found your channel through the Alex pasta machine, but I'm enjoying going back through your catalog of videos!

I used to do all the complex compounds at the tool and die shop i worked at, and never seen that vise before. It's very nice btw, I had to make 10inch compound sine plates out a old x axis Bridgeport table with heavy duty side straps since i was doing heavy cuts on weldments or stainless and alot of very heavy copper blocks, nearly 1foot cubed. I enjoyed the complex work for a change sometimes.

Watched a couple of your videos now, and come to the conclusion that your channel is going to be my new "bright up a cloudy day" solution =) Thumbs up

That vice looks like a tank mounted machine gun. Looks awsome! Good job on cleaning it up

Sunday night with good old Tony! Awesome!😎

Now I want a Universal Vise! Darn you Old Tony!!!!! Of course, I have no use for one....but before now I didn't know it existed....That looks really sweet.
