I've got this rusty old hand vise at the flea market for next to nothing.
It's got welding marks, hammer marks and a maker's mark I could not find any info on, so I felt no regrets welding a base to it so it can stay upright on the workbench.
I used a round offcut from a plasma cutter for this and this shape allows me to clamp it to the edge of the workbench and rotate it to the best angle suited for the work I'm doing. Kind of like a basic rotating base vise.

Me: it's time to go to bed.
RUclips: pss hey wanna watch a guy restore an old vise?
Me: sure why not
Just bought two of these. Just looking at some vids about them. I will definitely not be doing this to mine, but it's still a nice idea!
Grinder gods make it look professional.
Your welding skills are definitely better than mine :-)
This is straight up visual asmr
Nice result and looks handy for wood carving.
I've had one of those vises in my tool box for years and found limited use for it. After watching your video maybe things will change. Thanks.
ron martin Mhg you'll still find limited use for it. Standing it on its end won't make it more useful as it's the same as putting it end down in a vice. Which is basically what he did by clamping it to the table so his work was basically pointless!
It's a hand vise meant and formed to be held in the hand and not welded to a base. Give it to someone who can cut it off that base and save it.
Another excellent and useful tool. Thanks
Nice job but what happened to the little leaf spring you removed?? I would want it back to open the vice the same as my blacksmiths leg vice
He ground off the bottom so it tilts a bit and opens on its self. No need for the spring.
"A grinder and some paint made me the welder I ain't."
I love the big oreo part
Good job! 👍👍
Should have cleaned it up and left it as a hand vice. They're wonderful things.
I´ve got jus exactly the same vise, but in good condition...
I agree with you, they´re great hand vises.
But his idea is also interesting: a stand alone vise... I would have drilled/taped some kind of bolt near the hinge, in order to support it when I need a standa vise, o remove it when I need a hand one, instead of welding it to the base...
Anyhow, this is just another idea... and last but not least it is his vise after all, he can do whatever he wants with it!!!

Milk -N- Ammo Don't you just love it when a commenter tells someone that they should have done something a different way because that's how the commenter wants it?
@@CrankyPantss yo Fr. Like it’s their channel. They can do what they want
nice work, what you have made could be a very useful tool for many people, I have a few hand vise and often see these around, I will almost certainly copy your project.................your welding skills are obviously in development, once you begin to master the arc welder you will most certainly see the aesthetic difference, not to mention the actual effectiveness of the bond between a finely laid arc weld and that birdshit (as its known ) that you melted on to that metal, please take some time to watch some instructions...try You tube, you will not regret it, I look forward to seeing a better example on one of your future projects, keep creating
Good restoration 👍👍👍👍
Impressive. You weld better than I can. :)
When it comes to countersinking metal, you should try to keep slow speed and a lot of feed pressure. makes a cleaner chamfer.
Thanks for sharing, Nice idea
Great work like always. Keep the videos coming.
Thank you Pawel! I'll try!
Great idea and nicely done video as usual.
It's A Little Late But Saw The Small Workshop Notification Great Video Brother 👍
Thanks Alonzo, it's morning here :D
Came out nice! I like it!
I came to the comments expecting to see people bashing the weld.
Nice to see that other actual adults watch RUclips also.
P. S. I just found you and this is the 3rd vid in a row....
Frumoasa lucrare, am si eu una de genul, cand am timp o prind de forja :) Niste gauri in baza si se poate si prinde de banc, o menghina ideala pentru proiecte mici!
Multumesc! Am terminat-o acum o luna si am folosit-o de cateva ori intre timp, e chiar practica.
The Small Workshop Am vazut postarea pe grup acum ceva timp!
Why does it need a double washer? Is a single washer not enough?
VERY....VERY GOOD......CONGRATULATIONS........ São Paulo - Capital - Brasil
Great job :) That could come in really handy. Thank you :)
Fun-tastic ! But if you're spending $5 on paint a $1 more will get a nice dome slot screw , , fun piece . some just asked about one in a antique what is it group
Good Job !!, When and for what reason did you buy your new Makita angle grinder? did your old machine go wrong?
It was a birthday gift from my sister. It's pretty cheap, around $50, and it's made in my country. The red black and decker is almost 15 years old and works fine, it's only problem was with the switch a few years ago, but I fixed it. It was originally my father's grinder. What I don't like about it is that it uses smaller disks, 4 1/2 (115 mm) which are not as practical as 5 inch (125 mm) ones, like the makita uses. So I use the makita with a cutting wheel on and have a grinding or sanding disk on the B&D.
I also had a b&d angle grinder. Unfortunately it went wrong after 3.5 years. Then I bought the same Makita as you have, because I read many reviews saying it was good!!
Don't weld over your slag and less movement of rod. Great video and tool, thanks for sharing.
A grinder and paint will make u the welder u ain't 😂
Looks great
Muy buen diseño. Saludos desde Barcelona Catalonia
Nice vise.
The LARGE workshop
dont know if you will be reading this but what do you work as? carpenter or? cause that marking knife look beautiful as hell.
Thanks! I'm doing this as a hobby, my profession is in IT, but lately I've been drawn back to the hands on approach to life, building, repairing and making stuff. Sitting at a desk all day is not a very healthy lifestyle.
Nice gloves
素晴らしい❗
そして、羨ましい❗
WHOA WOW GREAT GREAT GREAT VERY VERY NICE.
I love that!
Primer and paint make me
the welder I aint
first thing i thought of lol
Thank you for this
What is the solution for the de-rusting?
I have a reflex to not look at the welding part even though it's on video and the screen can't reproduce the same amount of light.
Wonderful job and super vid, as always. Lovely to see something like this brought back to life. The bolt was bent for a reason of course. I suppose a wooden version of this would be quite possible? Thanks for sharing mate!
Thanks Mark! The bolt was bent the right way, to allow opening, but it was also bent sideways, twisted a little and also had lots of hammer marks on it. I think some previous owner welded the bolt in place then realized it can't open the vise and tried hammering it into the right shape. But he failed and the weld broke.
The Small Workshop aha! I see. Your solution is very tidy. I'm going over to your rust removal vid now, that looks intriguing! Thanks again mate, most enjoyable.
Wire wheel and gloves dont mix well
Robe James Have you tried wirewheel and shirt? It's an even worse mix! Lol
What was in the bucket in the beginning? Vinegar? Or was that electrolysis?
ya know if you just said something in the video
Nice!
Needs a compression spring between the arms.
Nice !!
Wondering why it's called a hand vise. That's was a complete destruction of that vise!
Nice.
Dat so litttt😎🔥✌❤
With that paint job you could work for kobalt!
What about the Spring?
no explanation? what liquid you used?
Very nice.
you took a specialty tool and made it into a tiny normal tool
u should put a spring in the bolt ?
That's a great idea! Thanks!
Small vise.
👌
Pls add before after at the end of vids..
И тут по молотку из набора я понял, что это from бывшего USSR территории :-)
should've chosen an old screw instead of a modern one. just looks wrong. otherwise nice job!
Achei bonito, porém o que estragou na minha opinião foi o apoio.
G👍👍D looking for work
THIS WAS ...TRASH TO TREASURE...THANK YOU!!!!GREAT JOB!!
Smashing rebirth of an old and worthless tool... Did you not feel the need to install a new spring plate?
Needs to learn how to weld
A soldadura está um bocado tosca mas, o global é positivo.
Is the video of the electrolytic rust removal jig the one at ruclips.net/video/LsPrK4AjQ7k/видео.html ?
yes
excellent; I'll be bookmarking that one for next time I need to de-rust my hand tools :)
Why you do that with that vise?? It's a hand vise... Don't weld it anywhere! There are vises for that purpose...🤦🏼♂️
Bunun adı cinayet başka bişey değil 😡😡😡
you broke them! by giving this disgusting bolt and these washers, drilling in it, then welding them to the sheet and painting them with paint absolutely destroying the atmosphere of this tool and not understanding its operation, how already these bolts and washers could give you old, not cross, and galvanized washers
il foro fatto con il trapano non serve a niente
Эй есть ктт русский мне скучно
