that little Stanley is my best plane! I find it very useful for quick things like chamfers and minor glue clean up.

Brilliant solution for an end vise.... going to use this for the bench I just built! Thank you for sharing this..

Awesome! Love the moved end vise!

Thanks Jay

instead of using à dowel into the vise jaw you can also make a u shape wooden block to fit on the jaw it will allow you to place it were you want on the jaw in case of irregular shape

Great video Jay! I love how relaxed you are... felt like I was in the shop chatting with you while you worked. I've still been meaning to make your pipe clamp vise.

Hello Jay. Great addition to the bench.

Where do you buy the little block plane

Watched this one a couple of times for info on a vise.... just noticed the "Newk's" cup on the bench, we just had one built locally, great place, we've probably got 20 of those cups, lol. Keep up the great videos!

“It’s just a work bench” 5 mins later... “I’m just feathering out the contrast”

I have that same vise. Its a good one. I put 2" ash in there for the sliding jaw. Hickory would be just as good. You might want to go back and counter bore those screws you put in the fixed jaw. with that soft pine you may end up with a nice embossed screw head on whatever you clamp in there!

Loved the video Jay! Especially the part with multiple Jays. Really love your editing, watching the chiseling segment inspired the thought of you possibly integrating the use of different techniques on projects that have identical components with multiples of you working around the shop say one using traditional tools anouther using power tools .... and the idea grows and grows. Probably be an editing nightmare. Lol again love all the edits in your videos love what you have going on, I've been following for years and have always been inspired by your work

Not sure if this is old school, but I have seen so many woodworking high end shows that store their sets of wood planes with the blade down. I was taught that you set the plane on its side, the reason being that should the plane be pushed of shoved it can not come in contact with a nail, screw or something of such that would chip or dull the blade. That also include storage of the plane, I would think that the blade down would be OK if it was on a piece of carpet or some sort of soft material. Just food for thought.

R. Catton , blade down 90% Of the time! of course it depends on circumstance. Like you said, the idea is to protect the blade. If you're placing it flat on a wood surface, there is little or no risk of damage, as soon as the blade is exposed because the plane is on it's side, the risk to bump it with something and cause damage increases. If you're placing down on a hard surface (metal, tile etc... ) then on the side is the right way to do it!

The blade being exposed greatly increases the chances for damage.

ProspectorBill like tools, there are some things worth spending more money on. GOOD shoes (not just expensive because of brand) and a GOOD bed.

And I agree, ASICS are nice shoes to wear, mine are due for an upgrade now going into their fourth summer of use

I like your worK. Good job.

great video jay very informative the type i like to watch

I just installed this exact same vice on the end of my bench. I bought a piece of live-edge oak (just over 1 inch thick) from my local DIY store, cut it down to make the jaws. I did't go complete width with the oak jaws however. Don't know why, they're about 38cm in length. Liked the idea about using the Forstner bit to drill out the recess. I used a router, which I started to regret as soon as I began. Worked anyway but with a lot of patience and a thousand times more dust than you caused Jay 🤪

Im actually sitting on sketchup right now drawing up plans for a mobile planer stand, mobile bandsaw stand and new workbench (cant decide on paulk vs your heavy duty style) also on wheels, with holes for MFT style clamps. The dilemma of using a table that can also have the wholes all the way through for the rail clamps....decisions decisions. Also using steel for making frames to save space, 20mm box section! every little helps!

I won't have thought to use a Drill Press to remove the material for the metal vise, nice idea.

@TrevorDennis100

4 жыл бұрын

I suppose a table router is the obvious choice, but I'll admit to using a metal milling machine, and clamping the work piece directly to the table. The biggest problem is keeping the wood from getting oily marks on it, but it makes for very accurate, and easy to do rebates.

Nice little vice and jaws jay!

If you left the piece of wood on the sliding side of the vice just 1/4 or 3/8 proud/taller of the bench/stationary side, than that would work as both a plane stop, and a super wide dog to clamp panels with. Then you don't have to put holes for dowels or dogs in the piece of wood. Let me know what cons you see with doing that, because I might do that on my bench if there is not a fatal flaw.

@johnh5008

7 жыл бұрын

I would not do that if I were you. Here's why: if you have a long workpiece that you're doing layout on, or some assembly you're trying to put together, and it overhangs the length of the bench, it would be propped up on that one end, which you don't want. So having a dog in the vise that can be lowered below the surface of the bench would be a nice benefit.

@dburga1

7 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I don't see that as a problem. A workbench has 6 to 7 feet of top, plus overhang on the other side. I find I need a plane stop and end vice way more than I build 9 foot long pieces of furniture that have to be assembled on top the workbench. I still think it is a good idea, plus you can always just remove it if you find it gets in the way for a rare project.

I haven’t been able to find this info anywhere else... Is there an agreed-upon ratio of how wide your wooden vise cheeks can be, compared to the width of the metal jaws? I’m trying to plan a mini-bench with an older 6” Sears vise, and I’d love to have it be a 12” full-width “end vise” like this. I’m guessing wood species has something to do with it too - I have some ultra dense sapele at my disposal to experiment with.

Have a similar situation with vise. M Mine is a 7" Ductile Yost. How long can make the jaws more than 15"?

Jay did you modify the base of your assembly table? Looks like you added more support from the bottom shelf to the top? I'm building this table at the moment(well past couple months haha).

Pretty new to woodworking. Is there a reason to go with the drill press to cut the recess as opposed to a router or just personal preference? Guess it's a bit easier to line up without having to get fancy with fences, jigs etc.

Looks great Jay. Do you think just 2 screws will be sufficient to hold the active jaw when you apply pressure to the dogs if something is a slightly irregular shape?

@JayBates2

They were 1/4" diameter screws going nearly the full depth of the jaw. I think they will be sufficient. If not, a counterbore on the inside and a bolt is a really quick fix.

Take out about that much. It’s about that long, and about that deep. Is there a reason you don’t say the dimensions?

Just clad the jaws with 1/4 inch or 1/2 wood and you cannot damage your tools Just put a 1/2 inch dowel as a dog .it's plenty strong enough.

Could of inset the other jaw into the wood too, would of made it more sturdy..
