Great job... Really like your square pop-up bench dogs. I'm gonna have to get a set of magnetic latches to play around with to see how you did that. ;) Thanks for the video.
Beautiful video! ( As usual). Im interested on your low Carpenter bench: that bench you used for the long rip cuts. I saw chinese master uses It as a sawing horse, mortising bench and a large chair. Id like to build something like that, its super smart. Are there any online sources or tips to follow?
It is a 4 leg 8 splay bench. It's not a special bench, it is a common piece of peasant furniture in China. Here is my video making a shortened version of this peasant bench. ruclips.net/video/5cTlj3DnUcs/видео.html
Love the spring idea, however if they always pop up a set height how do you plane thinner stock? I noticed when you pinched the stock in between the dogs, the dogs actually sat up above the level of the board, which would make it impossible to face plane. Likewise, do your little dog hole covers also get in the way if you’re trying to clamp stock down and you have those covers under the board? Thanks for the video! Got a lot of great ideas from this!
John, I don’t have a big strong face vise. Do you remember where you got that one? Really nice work! Lots of chisel work but looks like it was worth the extra effort! Thanks for sharing! I thought I asked about the kids. Haven’t seen them since the toy/game/learning projects you built for them.
Ok.. using those popups for the dog holes is absolutely brilliant.
Love the springs on the dogs, haven't seen that before!
Very nice. I liked your treatment of the end grain both on the bench side and the sliding dog block side. Nice touch.
Thanks.
Excelente trabajo, gracias por compartir!
Love this design
That was awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you for the video. I was always interested in making one. Now I know how.
Thanks nice work there and turned out great.
Finally a simple effective solution
Well done and well engineered vise.
Glad you liked it.
thanks for all your help. so many great projects, the dovetail plane worked great and the bow saw next.
Mr. Zhu, Thank you.
You're welcome, Mr. Thompson.
Great vid I really enjoyed it!
Nice video and design. Liked how you use the cutoff for the jaw. Very little waste. Mahalo for sharing! : )
Willful waste makes woeful want. Glad you liked it.

I think you're really going to like it. I've never looked back.
Nice vise. We shared this video on our homemade tools forum this week :)
Awesome video I have that part form that bench thanks for helping to figure out how to build that tail vise
Brilliant
Thank you.
Very well made video.
Very nice.
Thank you
Nice useful plan. Thanks
Glad you liked it.
John, Love your videos... can you give me the overall length & width of the work bench ?
Thanks for sharing John. Why not make your pop up dogs on your moving champing jaw too?
great video thanks for sharing
Glad you liked it.
You could attach a low profile metal plane stop to the top of one of your drop in dogs.
You could do that. But I need my bench top to be protruding-metal free.
Nice!
Beautiful video!

Can I be on your zombie apocalypse team if things go south? Good work as usual
Always need a computer tech on the away team; first thing to malfunction are electronic sliding doors.

I thought about this too. I would place a shim under each end of the workpiece so it rises proud of the dogs, then plane away.
cool

Mine is off a Harbor Freight bench.
I need to find a good option for that tail vice bolt and nut you used..... Any ideas?
Weld a nut to a plate
Ratchet with a 1/4" bit drive drill makes for a much easier(slightly slower) job of drilling a hole in a awkward spot than an egg-beater drill will...
👍👍👍👍
Got my looking at the crappy vise on the harbor freight bench I'm stuck using and got my gears turning man lol.
That's where I got my extra vise.
