Não tem capricho.🧐 👎👎👎

I see so many post/leg vise refurbishings on YT where you fellows GREASE the screw. Grease is the worst thing to use on a vise screw, it captures all the metal filings and steel scale. You've then created your own grinding compound to wear out the screw threads.

Filmed in the correct style of doing the work. Thanks much! (Americans tend to be "mouthy".)

Nice work! What did you use to get that really dark color on it. I am rebuilding the very same one.

Just restoring one myself. The quick release spring is broken though. Bought one for a Record vice, let's hope it fits!

Very nice job! I have a similar post vice I got from my dad Curious why you didn’t remove the spring… was the spring clamp welded?

I love to rebuild those things. I have 2 now needing the same treatment. I take to lazy mans way out to clean. White vinegar. Its alot of fun. Tools the same. Smithing is dirty. But tools take care of is very important.

That will not work you didn’t wind the quick release spring

It’s good to see a man who doesn’t mind getting his hands dirty,most vids have guys in gloves.

For goodness sake,put some HEAT on it!

Would love to preserve the id tag if its mine..overall great job

Lost a lot of value $ wise, I would have tried to keep the old label on the inspection plate and give it a couple of clear coats!!

Not impressed. Less muscle more lubricants.

Wish you had shown the trickiest part of the reassembly - winding that darned coiled watch spring. Devilish business!

Should have the jaws machined and new jaws made fthen drilled and taped into old jaws. Then again I'm more about usability of a tool

not a restoration, clean up and paint job

Those National Dried Milk tins you have there -(under the window)- tickled me.....i remember those as a boy when mum used to feed my sister! Kind of goes with the restoration types that you do.....anyone else remember them too!?!

I like it. I didn't take my pin out for the very same reason!

How much is one like that worth

Perfect, I have this exact drill that is also stuck - and I've learned I'm missing the little side handle 😂

Mate do u have facebook....i want ask u something about this vise

Lovely, glad you kept it blue👍🏼

After all that you kept the old wood jaws? I would have left the original paint, it appeared to be in serviceable shape. The label also, even if you can't see, it at least you know it is there. Both real paint and a cool label are FAR more important than an oily set of dinged-up, replaceable wood jaws, that will slip and make the vise subpar.

Great restoration. This was a fantastic video to sit, watch, and sip bourbon to.

Thank you for sharing I enjoyed the video 👍🏻

Hi, I see the paint you used on the vice comes in different forms do you use gloss or semi gloss or satin! Great job you did 👍 Many thanks G

Video needs better lighting. Change camera angle so that your hands do not block the camera view

Sweet 👍🏻 👍🏻

Great work. Attention to detail. Top job.

I just pulled this vise out of my dad's basement workshop. It's been there since I was a kid on his workbench. I'm almost 60. My dad's been gone for 16 years. The vise is in excellent shape. Can't wait to get it on my bench and start using it.

You didn't need too hack saw off the pin it would have just come out when hit with a hammer.

Thank goodness it had the important feature of a Dust Exclusion Plate

beast of a vice, well done mate

Really good, I’m a woodworker, just my thoughts the jaws should be untreated, non oiled soft pine, so won’t damage other woods you are working with

Great watching , I really learnt something , I restorate my old wooden vice myself . just by watching , GREAT STUFF.

Buen trabajo de restauración, te felicito 🇵🇪

Quedó lista para trabajar, felicitaciones por el buen trabajo 🇵🇪

Ruined the value of the wrench by filing off the wear and history of how the wrench was used.

quedó bien pero me quedé con ganas de más

Cool job buddy 👍 i like it 👍

beautiful restoration buddy 👍

Oh my gosh why in the world did you ruin that label?? When it is so easy to remove and save. And if you didn't know how you could look it up on RUclips. And if you didn't want to then you're not a true lover of things that are vintage. I had to quit watching after that.

Agree with everyone (except ,maybe, for Richard Frankland opinion) on a good restoration but shame about the label. OK, it's not on show, but that's not the point, is it? As for the wooden jaws, in my opinion you did the right thing in reusing them although as Richard points out oil may not have been a good choice for finish. The wood looked nice and old and appears to be hardwood so does it really need anything on it? Non-the-less you've gained a subscriber today.

I have and still do restore many Record wrenches. You done a good job but you made it a very long and drawn out process.

vinegar? just no. don't get it anywhere near your tools. same for evaporust and all that chemical shit

1940's

painting is not interesting. You should have done more metalwork. Explain how you got the pin etc etc

Very well done. I thoroughly enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing your skills with us. 👍🇦🇺

Opens linseed oil **heavy breathing**

A world-class product, from when 'Made In England' meant something. A useful video - I didn't see you apply any grease to the mating surfaces of the bed or slide before assembly ? That would have made the initial fit a lot easier.
