First I wired up the rust and used brake fluid to loosen all the rusted parts. I removed the lever that is used to tighten the Vise and cut it with a miniature burr to remove the screw at the bottom of the table Vise that is used to attach it to the table and it was easy to remove. I put all the Vise parts into the pan and added rust remover solution to it and after 12 hours I removed all the parts. I removed the part of the Vise jaw that he stepped on and washed all the parts.
Some of the blue cloth paint was left on it, which I removed with paint remover. After finishing the work, I started to file and tried not to use the originality of the clip too much.
Vise jaws:
I drilled 6 holes with a drill bit and made it as the manufacturer did, the edges of the clips were gone and I drew a line on them again with a razor and then heated both to the desired degree and pressed them in oil to harden.
Part of the moving jaw of the Vise was broken. I took it out and welded it again (cast iron welding) and sanded it to make it cleaner.
I sanded the top of the clip to make it smooth and tidy.
I covered the clip with the same oily blue color.
Vise screw:
The screw used to tighten the Vise was almost intact and some of it was covered under so I didn't touch it and cleaned it and put it back in place but it has a washer that was missing and I reshaped it. Cover it. I installed it, hope you enjoy the video.

About Me:
My name is Behnam and this is the How to restoration channel. My grandfather was a carpenter and my father continued to do the same, and since I have lived with tools since I was a child, I have a strong interest in them. I believe that old tools It should not be thrown away, it should be restored and used again. I believe that everything that is older and has been made before has a solid structure and is very durable and made with principles. All tools today are mass produced with very low quality. My way of thinking is that I was born in 1990 and I will leave the world once, so I do what makes me feel good. I haven't tested many tools yet and I want to reach them one day and my art. I will create with those tools. I earn from CZcams and if you want to support me in this way, I would appreciate it if you subscribe to my channel and follow the videos.
