Great! Let me know how it goes!

I won a Katz-Moses dovetail guide ( something else ) and now I am going to build the vice you expertly showed us to do. I feel somehow they will compliment each other.

Nice and simple! The pocket for the nut in the knob should be slightly shallower than the thickness of the nut so that it protrudes a bit. This ensures the nut is bearing on the washer so it doesn’t break the epoxy bond.

I’ve been trying to decide how to add a vise to the side of my work bench without spending $200 on a cabinetmaker vise, so I think I’ll give this a try! As others suggested, I will probably try reversing it so the long threaded bolts go under the bench rather than sticking out. Mine is right up against the stairs to the house, so those bolts would be sticking out into the walkway. Great video!

you do make an old man with time on his hands, if not in reserve, very happy. I have tried so many of your projects and everyone has been a very enjoyable evolution for me. Thank you and please keep them coming.

If you flip the bolt, embed the nut in the bench and epoxy the handles on the bolt head then you won't have 3 inches of bolt sticking out to bang into. :)

Nice project! Very accessible to the average woodworker, and an easy way to get this very useful type of vise in one's shop. I do agree with the other comments about reversing the bolts, mostly for safety and running a hip or belly into those, especially in a small shop. I also saw your excellent reply comment explaining the reasons why that's a more complex build. An interim compromise might be to pop on a couple of those rubber caps, like on the end of a walking cane, but with a 3/4" inside diameter. Home Depot usually has drawers of those little kinds of doo-dads, in the bolt aisle. Rubber caps would also serve to keep the wheels from running off the end of the bolts, and yet be flexible enough to allow for easy removal, should that last half inch be needed.

Just a tip. When you lathe the handles. Make a groove like a pulley in the side closest to the vice and wrap a fan belt or something that works as a strap that goes around both handles. That way when you turn one knob the other will turn also to allow both to turn to secure the work piece quicker. When the work piece is secure you can turn the handles independently until th work piece is pinched to the desired hold fast.

Nice and simple. I have most of the tools you used as well.

You used flat sawn boards for the jaws. All construction wood will dry over time, causing the boards to "cup". The result will be jaws that have gaps when closed. Use quarter sawn wood and this movement is minimized. Finding quarter sawn wood is easier than you'd think - just buy 2x12s. Select boards that are cut from the very center of the log - the outer sections will be quarter sawn. You might have to cut out the middle of the board and glue the outer sections back together to get a full 4 1/2" board, but this is easy and will result in a much more stable jaw.
