2:10 Jimmy to get cleaner cuts with your plasma cutter, you should always initiate your cuts on an edge so the molten metal can be blown downwards. If you start your cuts on a flat part, the metal has nowhere to go and splashes around until the plasma makes it through. You could drill 1/4 holes and start from the edges of these holes. I already heard you complain about this on the podcast so I hope this helps. Take care !

Wouldn't it be faster/easier to pierce near the center of the hole?

@obfuscated3090

That's the usual method with a cutting torch (old school) and CNC (new school). Pierce your scrap, not your workpiece. I collect rings (bearing races, hunks of pipe) to use as torch guides for small circle cutting. You can tack a piece of flat bar to the ring so you have a way to clamp it to your work.

When I plasma cut small holes I tack washers where I want the hole. Then just run the plasma cutter head around the outside or inside depending on hole size. It is a great vise stand Jimmy

Nothing is free. Do you think the metal he used was free? Or the plasma cutter? Sometimes a few cents for a much better result is worth it.

That last little bit you sprayed on the leg was funny. You saved the day with that. I never would have noticed, but I guess some people watch in slow-mo to look for imperfections, that I call character.

Loved the end... A great example of stand up comedy... Wait... STAND should be all caption so you see how funny I am... Fuck I screwed up...

You have changed Jimmy, Why did you not use the CNC to cut out the circle? :) Love your work brother!

I don't fully understand why, but when Jimmy drops things it gives me pleasure. I always smile. Sometimes not perfect... but done... is what's needed.

Jimmy I love how the stand you made will not tip over and you proved that by a couple of Spartan kicks

The sound of you welding in fast forward is so soothing, kinda reminds me of playing space invaders on the old Atari as a kid

It is a pleasure to see how quick & decisive you are to make what you want & that it turns out practical, memorable & elegant.

Your rattle can antics are top notch Jimmy

I can tell your happier now being in the new shop and in the country now. Enjoy.

I saw this pop up right as I climbed into bed .... but I waited until this morning to watch. Diresta for breakfast, tastes good :-)

Giddy Jimmy! Giddy Jimmy's back, baby!

Love u diresta I'm 15 and just started getting into black smithing and I do it a lot and even made a small business out of it and I know u don't really blacksmith but u inspired me to become a maker/builder

Has Tormach, and Tourchmate at house... uses wooden template at shop... Thanks Jimmy, for always showing its not just about having the best tools, its also about using your hands and making stuff..

I guess white paint is easier than cleaning it.

You are cracking me up with the trolling!!!! Kicking it to make sure the haters who say it won't be stable will shut up along with the last minute sprays for the "you missed a spot" people. Love it.

Hammer holes, nice. I was thinking that they looked like shit until I realized the practicality of them after the reveal. Good work as always. I need to make something like this

Jimmy, you're a nut! ha ha. Those bits with the spray paint at the end had me cracking up! Really cool vise stand.

Great paint moves at the end there. A true stylist.

no cnc, just jimmy's hands. can't beat that.

Love it. "All those fancy machines and he builds it by hand!" Looking forward to seeing you in Birmingham, UK...

As usual I enjoy watching your builds. I made a similar style stand for my first anvil but eventually went to a built-up solid block of wood, the long legs will flex with every hammer blow and each time you bend or twist something in the vise, eventually cracking the welds. I got tired of stepping around the legs and rewelding them. I'm much happier and have less chance of tripping, although it's a great portable design. Also clean and de-burr the holes for the hammers very well or you'll find the handles get chewed up fast.

I have a computer and a phone but I still write things down with a pen.... It works. It's crude. I've made things equally as crude. This video just left something to be desired. Yet I couldn't stop watching. This one had more drama because of the "controversy" of techniques used. Cannot wait for the canoe build. Maybe an Offerman cameo. Nice work Jimmy.

Did this to a rigid folding Tri stand pipe stand. I have several vices and plates that bolt to the top. Legs changed over to pin in place makes it portable!

It looks like a vice and stand that should be in space and I'm really into that. SPACE VICE!

I love the podcast about expectations. The first thing that came to mind was, "do it with a hacksaw then I'll be impressed." Good video man.

Good to see you working in your new shop!

Glad to see you're getting your vices under control Jimmy.

As always you killed it man, You inspire everyone to work harder. I gotta mount the old vise my father in-law gave me from an older house built in the early 1900s

The end of the video where u ran up and touched up the paint was hilarious! I spit coffee all over👍 love it bro! Im jealous of your new shop! I would love to come visit your new shop someday. Great video👍

i love the way you marked all the wholes out with the spraypaint, great vid

OK peeps all those people wondering about the MDF template, plasma cutting and all the other things wrong in this video, this is not meant to be educational it's meant to be entertainment so Jimmy does things not quite the right way just because he can and wants to. He could have made the metal plate on the CNC plasma cutter and it would have been precise but then people would have complained that he was using machinery that they don't have. So just take a deep breath and enjoy it for what it is.

Finally a good ol fashioned crude build video Jimmy style

Why so precice wood template and then crappy hand cut with plasma torch? Better to make holes in template bigger and guide the torch by them...eh?

@ElectraFlarefire

That's what I was expecting! You can even get away with heavy cardboard for a one-off plasma template. If it was done this way, what was the point of using the wood template at all when all the marking out would work as well strait onto the steel.

For whatever reason if I need to hammer something in a vise I generally use my bench vise for that. I built my tripod vise specifically to grind work being held in it. So that's what I mainly use it for. It holds stuff good for hand drilling too. But that vise is not too far from my mill so that sees more drilling action. Just how things work out.

6:01 Jimmy throws a spinning back kick exactly on the button of that vise! Bravo! A super maker and a ninja! You go Jimmy!

At the end, everything comes together. Great job Jimmy.

Enough with trolls commenting on the same thing. Read the comments and try something original. It was a great quick build. JD is a wiz on the bandsaw. Template probably took 5 minutes. Makes like a lot easier. Just shut up and enjoy. The man obviously knows what he's doing. I wish I had a 1/6 of that knowledge. Can't wait for the maker space

Wonderful finesse at the end!

when you glued that template back up, I still thought it was the work piece...I couldn't stop laughing at how you cut it previously...funniest thing I saw all day!

Look forward to seeing this featured in future videos, the ending was a nice touch too. -Caleb Harris

looks good. great hammer organizer... all in diresta signature white.

congratulations on your new shop!

Haha nice video! The nonchanlanche is a trademark! Very nice camera work at the end!

Hey Jimmy. After listening to the latest podcast of Making It, I believe the best troll bait would be a CNC plasma cut 3/8" thick dovetailed steel tea box. 😊For extra troll baiting points you could hand plasma cut those dovetails. Then weld the sides together. And paint it white. Then stencil your name on every side. ☺️

Another Great Video JD! Thanks for Sharing the many tips! I learn from EVERY video! Have A Super Week!.....*Gus*

Nice! I like how you put the wedges in the bandsaw vise to get your angle.... now all I gotta do is remember it when the time comes ;)

I literally thought about a vise stand the other day. This is perfect well done.

Great build Jimmy. Cheers, Jim

You can probably paint now without worrying about overspray on everything as bad. Love the new shop. It's going to be so awesome in the near future.

Christ on a bike Jim! 3:18 I had my headphones on.

I miss all the creative builds from scratch

I like the angle block in the vise on the cut off saw......I'm stealing that one.

Nice!!! Love the fast pace and simple design of this build. Great vid!

love the saltbae move at the end

Nice work man. Cheers

I know this I guess crude compared to what you normally do but I just wanna say watching your videos and how your hands work and the smoothness of everything just makes me so jealous that I'm not even close to your level (welder/fab here) the products you make are such top quality you can tell care and thought goes into everything you do and I can only DREAM! of being close to the craftsman you are, whatever it was you did in life to get this good tell me please XD, keep up the fantastic work and I will continue watching for as long as you put out quality content thank you.

Great job Jimmy, looking forward to much more in this shop and then the new one. Thanks for sharing.

What a crazy painter!

back to the old time videos! do more like these v Jimmy!

Looks like a great vise for the shop! 👊🏻💪🏻👈🏻

Another History Secret Revealed!!! The real surname of Giotto was DI RESTA! ;) U are an artist I am sure U understand! Respect from Italy as usual for incredible skillness :0

Angle grinding wearing shorts? You are a brave man. With the hirsuteness of my legs I would be prone to conflagrations.

loved the template and spray paint to transfer the holes... brilliant brother!👍👍

Nice stand. IMO, the contrast between the white vise and unpainted raw stand looked sweet.

Simple and versatile in one great package ... Stay well my brother ........

Do any of you read the comments before commenting? So many clueless people. People complain when he uses his CNC, they complain when he does not use it. @jimmydiresta is a master, Just sit back, watch and learn from a master.

Tony Ozimek best comment true!

Maybe the MDF allowed him to test the hammer fitment which cardboard would not be strong enough to hold up and he just didn't film that bit. Also the holes on a band saw is definitely not SOP but I'm glad. I love seeing different cat skinning options. No offense Spike.

The karate kick was a nice demo of the strength. 😂 I've been wanting to do something similar for a while. Thanks for the inspiration

Hello Jimmy, I'm following you from Italy and I try to treasure your advice, you're a myth, it's still like this

I got that vice in my shop, love it! (both the video and the vice...)

Jimmy Diresta is a nice person.

Congratulations Dimy great idea and great utility

FIRST To comment on my own opinion... thank you Jimmy every time I feel like you tube is played out I get another one of your great videos and I keeps me coming back.

Simple as it is, this is one of my favorite projects

I like it !! If I was going to do any 'serious' hammering for any length of time, I personally would maybe beef up the connection to the area where the legs are welded to the base plate. Maybe an additional gusset type support to each leg to help spread out the stress. It might not be necessary, but it would make me feel more comfortable. Love your vids. Keep crankin em out and I will keep watching. Retired old geezers like me sure do enjoy them.

Nice job Jimmy. 👍

loved that "Nusret style" spraying at the end...

Nice build, fairly fast, very practical. You'll maybe want a work tray underneath to hold "stuff' as well as add some anti spread bracing when you put heavier than anticipated loads in the vice. Well worth duplicating, thanks.

Haha! Nice Sir! I really appreciate this Bench Vise Stand that you did!!

Jimmy you got some spray paint on the floor. Don't loose your security deposit lol - great job!!!!!

Love it. I'm sure I have no reason or use for vise stand, but I want one bad now!

You've gotta get some hip music in your videos like Laura Kampf. My wife wont let me watch these at home because the sound of the tools at high speed make her insane. haha

I like tthat puristic design!

My dog and I watched this video this morning. He said that stand was rough.

Man, I thought you were about to build a humongous ol' skool telephone

it looks pretty strong. nice job sir

Nice Jimmy! Great to see a build video. Is it scary that I'm understanding your workflow now! :)
