Homemade Tail Vice

After deciding to make a homemade tail vice, I started doing research and I came across the HNT Gordon tail vice. Man, that is a beautiful vice! I decided I was going to try to make something similar but obviously not as stunning. I always look out for anything with threads that could be handy and I picked up a $4 car jack from the oppy for this project. Other than that I used scraps that I had at hand.
The only downside is the screw turns anti clockwise to clamp the workpiece rather than clockwise, I didn't think about this until halfway through the project. Ideally a left hand thread would have been nice. Although I've found that I'm using the vice from the front of the workbench where I'm working on my workpiece, so I'm not looking directly at the end of the knob, making a clockwise/anti clockwise motion less obvious. The knob is more of a roller with a forwards/backwards motion. With the little I've used it I've found I'm already getting used to it.
I know I could have saved myself the hassle and just bought one but this is what I enjoy doing - making my own things. It's like a puzzle that needs figuring out and that's what I enjoy. I'm sure not many would bother making a project like this but it may spark some ideas for your own projects.
I'm pretty sure the drawers for under the workbench should be my next video! And I'm thinking of making a leg vice, like Jay Bates with the scaffold screw but so far I'm struggling to get hold of one. I found some on eBay at a great price $16 but they wanted $26 to post it. I need to find one locally or I will have to just pay the postage.
I hope you enjoy the video and as always I'm happy to answer any questions.

the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.
Puțini oameni mai sunt așa motivați ,tot respectul.
Pask, your projects are always so well documented and very practical. Some guys on RUclips make some truly beautiful art with wood, but at this stage of my life, I am more into the practical items to improve the shop so that I can one day make the more aesthetically pleasing items later on. Your content is spot on, just wanted to say a big, "thank you," from the States - Cheers!
Me too! From Canada...!
What a great idea! I wish I had half the toolings, expertice and patience you do. Congratulations on a terrific job.
First person I have seen using plywood for a bench. It's tough, durable, stable and economical . Very well done sir.
Thank you! :)
Way to think outside the box with that old jack! Awesome job.
Nice work. Crazy pragmatic use of materials for a really useful addition to the bench. I’m going to be adding one to my new bench very soon.
Very clever use of an old jack. I’m impressed. Thanks for sharing!
Really, really a great job Pask. You took a lot of time and thought put into making this vice. Thanks for sharing.

This is the first video of yours I've seen, instantly subscribed. Good attention to detail in your work and I liked the pace the video set.
Thank you! Good to hear the feedback :)
@@PaskMakes me feel better about this position
@Jason you have some catching up to do by watching more of his videos.
This gentleman is brilliant in his design and completion. I always learn at least two or three things in each video.
ㅡ3
we share this rock with some extremely talented people, that is nothing short of a work of art IMO, re purposing at its finest
I don't know what to say - thanks Mark! :)
So many different approaches to a home made wagon vise... so worth it. You will love having one.
Thanks Tim! I think it will be great having vices, I've managed without them for too long!
Pask Makes I love creative building o on a budget like you do. Here is my bench lumberjocks.com/projects/294266
It's a beauty - love it! Did you use a scaffold screw for the leg vice? That's the way I'm going to go, if I can find one.
This has got to be one of the best videos, hands down, on a DIY idea that I have seen yet! Really well made !
Not like some of the other videos I have watched and thought, Why did I even watch that? My hats off to you, sir!
Many thx, it's an absolute beady mate, i'm impressed and also puting this on my own bench as soon as i get the MIG.
Love that, my bench will have that upgrade soon!
I'm blown away by your creativity and imagination. I've learned a lot. Thank you
Why so many people dislike such a great video
This is exactly what I was looking for its unbelievable how much those vises are
Super cool build! And the videography is spot on.
Thank you Rob!
Thumbs up! You did a great job. Nothing like having a workshop with all the right tools.
Thank you Robert! :)
Slick design! I especially like the cover plate, it gives the bench a really clean look.
Thanks Rodney - glad you like it! :)
Good idea...not too complicated-you don’t always need big bucks to succeed! Nice job!👍🏻
That really was a pleasure to watch. I have learnt a lot from this. There's a couple of old car jacks out in the shed - I know exactly what they are going to be used for now. Thanks very much for this video.
No worries! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
I think you are one of the greatest!! thank you for your job. You give me more experience with every video you do!
Thank you! I'm not sure about the first statement though. I'm very pleased that you're getting something from my videos, that makes my day, thanks!
I knew I saved old Jacks for something,thanks for sharing and the inspiration.
Been looking for this video to rewatch, finally found it. Thank you
You are a very talented man, my friend.
Brilliant set of instructions, made it fitted to the bench with home made pop up dogs .
I really enjoy your creativity and innovation. I would have enjoyed hearing you narrate this video giving your thoughts about why you built it, bits about the build along the way and what you like best about it and what you might change if you made another. It was great though. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Tony! I have spoken a couple of times in my videos and that was a big hurdle to get over, so I may eventually talk more on some videos. Glad you enjoyed it anyway.
Fantastic! This is exactly what I have been looking for before I begin my workbench build. Thanks, Pask Makes.
Genius. Great video Neil
Great work and great video...your volume control and sound effects are fantastic! One could just listen to the video and be impressed. Bravo!
BTW gorgeous bench.
Awesome job Pask! 👍👍
such a joy watching you work. thank you for sharing.
Neil thats fantastic, and you made it look easy. Defiantly something I would love to have a go at now that its starting to cool down a bit. Well done mate
Thanks Max! I'm looking forward to the cooler weather too, I'm so much more productive in the cooler months!
Just a thought:
To flatten the table and keep those extra holes filled down the length of the table, you could run a metal strip underneath the table with those holes cut out. Then you could take a metal square, add a peg to fill in the hole off of the metal square. It would mount underneath, being flush on top, then you could use the same metal squares flipped over on top to set down into the holes and use as braces for the clamp.
I hope I made some clear explanation!
What a great idea! Thanks for sharing it.
That is slick ! I'm impressed with your ingenuity!
That's another great job, it just needs to be on my work bench, Thanks for the videos
Thanks Gary! :)
Excellent video! I think the DIY tail vise is beyond me but I love the addition to the bench!
Thank you very much Scott!
Ein prima Projekt das Freude macht 👍👍👍👍👍
Great idea and even greater build-video and product!
Thank you!
An old scissor jack, wouldn't have thought of that. Really nice build and execution Neil, thanks for sharing!
Thank you Larry!
Now That's very cool. Great Upcycle. Those jacks are very handy. I have used them in a few builds and I use them for braking down pallets.. Great build video Mate. Thank you for sharing...shared.
Thank you Terry!
Fantastic videos of your work. Really enjoying your workmanship and ideas!
Man you really work fast !!
Thanks for your tribal knowledge
Great idea, awesome craftsmanship, and fun video to watch!
That turned out so nice!
You must be one of the most intelligent people on RUclips, you have video after video of amazing ideas.
You should be bloody proud of that one!
Thanks Ben!

M muito bom você é ótimo
I had to go to google translator to tell you these sincere compliments. You're the most sensational of your idea, congratulations and thank you for sharing.
Thank you Lucas! What a great tool google translator is!
Ever the craftsman, and always an inspiration. I'm trying to think where I might have an old scissor jack laying around....
Great build Pask, admire the craft..
Man, this is some serious Rube Goldberg tail vise build.
Nice work. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome vise, now to give it a go myself!
Very excellent work
Great idea using car Jack
Thankyou for the tip of the pipe bar clamp, I already finish the proyect and feel happy to have it but only the half nut to welding for not to move and everything gets fine see you and bye bye
I had no idea what a tail vice was or what it was used for, and probably will never have any use for one but it was fascinating watching skilled hands at work.
Very clever! Very nice build. Thanks for sharing
Thank you! No worries :)
Well done. You gotta be satisfied with that piece of work.
What a great idea and build. Thanks for sharing....now off to watch your workbench build, looks fabulous. 👍🏼😊
Thank you! :)
Nice and slick! Built in!
excellent build. need one of these on my new table!
Thank you!
came out really nice, subscribed for more useful stuff.
Thank you!
с таким количеством и таким разнообразием инструментов делать подобные вещи не трудно)
One perfect video after the other. I need to go to sleep! Thanks for sharing. Tomorrow is an other day.
Aloha Pask ,
wonderful use for the throw away find at everyone's past . IT ALREADY in my hands , just need to keep puttering with what I have for it to fit in to my new 'free wood and recycled base tripod of a wood bench for the outside were my yard is very much not on the level.
Fantastic build
Thank you! :)
Really, really good. Now I want to run out & find an old jack!
Great work!!
Thank you!
10:25 if you just turn and use round dogs with maybe a flat on one end you can just push them flush when not in use. I would like that better.
7:14 the other thing I would absolutely do differently is not make it a housed vise jaw. An actual open-jaw tail vise can capture so many things like for working tenons, using a draw knife, or working mortises on a vertical pieces like table legs. Plus, a ‘wing’ can also double as a face vise or partial end vise in function. All while maintaining the functioning of use dogs to the bench surfaces.
You are a mechanical genius!
I'm not sure about that but thank you! :)
Great work! Never saw one like this, but I like the low profile! 👌👌
Thank you! It's based on a HNT Gordon tail vice, you should google it, it's a beautiful vice!
Another successful tool build, bravo.
Достаточно было показать результат, а всё остальное опустить.
Congratulations 👏👍
Beautiful job
Looks great, as always!
Another cool vice.
Awesome videos bro no talking shit, smooth voices of the wood working and tools..... AND FINALLY A CHANNEL THAT IS ABLE TO CONVEY THEIR MESSAGE PROPERLY WHAT THEY ARE DOING. thanks bro ur awesome!!
Thank you! :)
I want you on my team during the zombie apocalypse!
Haha! :D
that would be now
Wow that was a really cool project. Now I know what to do with the 10 screw jacks I have
That's a fantastic job and you're a creative genius. It would be great though if you could add a little commentary to sum it all up at the end with your thoughts on the projects. But make no mistakes, you're a top bloke and a great teacher!!
Thank you very much! :)
Excellent video as usual!
Great Idea Neil. I have a milk crate full of old scissor jacks here, have been wondering if I could make some sort of vice or clamp from the screw - you have given me lots of ideas.
One suggestion (I think I saw this on John Heisz channel), you could add a hex insert or stick out on the end of the knob so you can use your drill to speed to the other end... probably a nice to have, not sure how useful in practice.
Thanks for taking the time to document this!
Cheers, Tom
Thank you! I'm glad it was of help to you. I've seen that done several times, using a drill, but by the time I grabbed a drill I could've moved the vice full travel - I'm sure it may appeal to others though. Thanks for the input!
Awesome idea, thank you.
Nice done job , a lot working ...thank you
This is so cool, I gotta try this!
Thank you! Go for it :)
Love the idea, very smart! A jack screw for a tail vise would be perfect. Never thought of that.
Thanks Chris!
Very nicely done
Thanks Shane!
Great edit! Great project too. I need to get me a purple sharpie. Cheers! Chris.
Thank you! It has to be a purple one! ;)
I'm going to try and make one of these from an old Workmate bench that was getting thrown away. It essentially has two ready tail vices on either side.
Nice Job, well thought out and presented on the video. I will be trying to make one of these myself, thanks for the idea.
Thanks Nick! No worries :)
Great skills mate👏👏
Thanks Steve! :)
No words, this is (excuse my language) fucking FANTASTIC amazing job and great use of blending
Great work!
Thanks!
Great Job!
Thanks!
Только очень увлеченный человек может столько времени потратить на такой эксклюзив. Молодец однозначно!
Realllly good job !
Beautiful job, you should be proud!
