This channel is now one of three that gets an instant like outta the thousands of channels I’m subscribed to. The attention to detail is almost unsurpassed, fit & finish is near perfection, & really the only thing anyone could ask for is more videos, which I have no doubt will be coming soon. Just can’t say enough good things about this channel.

awesome well done, your paint finish is superb

Little hint. When you need to remove a screw that is stuck with heat, do NOT heat the screw. Heat the material around the screw. The metal will expand making the extraction of the screw much easier.

Отличная работа, лайк! Однако, я расскажу свою историю. Однажды, вдохновившись подобными видео о восстановлении старых вещей, я восстановил свой старый, ржавый молоток. Я вернул ему правильную форму, покрасил, изготовил новую рукоять из редких пород древесины и собрал всё воедино. Получилось красиво. И теперь я им не пользуюсь из за опасения испортить его внешний вид 😀.

I'm mainly a woodworker, but I have worked on different kinds of vise before....... I find a manual impacting screwdriver to be worth their weight in gold for ignorant screws, like in your vise jaws. They come with parallel ground tips that get a much better purchase in a slot head to reduce marring, and they remove even the most stubborn of fixings. As a fan of old Record tools I'm happy to see this back up and running; even better than it was when first made....... VERY well done Sir 😁

Great restoration, having restored a couple of Record Vices myself, it was interesting watching your method because it is quite different to the approach I take. I quite liked how you used a filling primer before paint because the final result really showed the benefit. Also had no idea that the anvil could be unscrewed from those Vices. Of course now the best part is that you can use it, abuse it and destroy your work ready for the next person with an appreciation for vintage vices and desire to restore something.

I've watched several vice restoration videos, and there's something that puzzles me -- considering the trouble that restorers usually have to dismantle the various nuts & bolts, especially those on the jaws, why don't they ever seem to grease the threads when they're reassembling?

Turned out looking good, mate.👌🏻 I'm just a bit concerned about the rust left in the threads 1# 24:38 2# 25:20 ...

Mig welders weld tin, mild steel, and with special wire and gas stainless and aluminum. They do not well cast iron..period. The weld always breaks off. Nice looking little vise did you look up to see what attachment goes in the hole?

What is the tool you have there that applies the white paint? Very well done!

I figured you would cut the ball ends off the original handle and weld them to a new handle.

Very nice job! My only critique would be the heavy grease you used may not be the best as any filings or dirt will adhere to it. I would have used a spray silicon or a product like Boeshields T-9

Table vices are normally aimed at cheapness - the Record Imp (essentially a very scaled down Record Auto Vice #74 or #75) is the best one that I know of. The Woden Titan is comparable in build quality, but not as versatile. Useful discussion here: www.ukworkshop.co.uk/threads/record-imp-vice.23939/

@@DaimlerSleeveValve sandblasting barely removes any actual metal in real terms it's would make a microscopic difference if done correctly, especially if the primary purpose is to remove rust and old flakey paint. Structurally it would make very little to the Vice because as you correctly mentioned they are Sheffield made and tend have thicker castings. As for the machined components such as threads, they wear over time no matter what material is used particularly in the case of vices which tend to have a lot of force applied and they have survived up to this point (70+ years). Having restored 8 different Record Vices, albeit not using the same methods, I have never experienced a problem using any of them after restoration.

@TheGardenWorkshopRestoration

I think DSV is correct to a degree, I could have got the vice operational quite easily and if I wasn’t uploading a video to youtube I may have done that (wouldn’t have been an entertaining video though). Using filler on rough castings is not an uncommon occurrence, it wouldn’t be done on an item such as this due to the labour/cost involved, however if you look at expensive milling machines and lathes the castings were commonly filled in order to give a better paint finish (in the same way cars are). I only did this on the painted surfaces not machined components, threads were protected from sandblasting by electrical tape etc.
