The "wing" is called a key, and the punched orifice it nests into is called a "keyway". Just FYI.
the best description and explanation I've found for a leg/post vise. every Blacksmith I've seen has several, I knew I needed one, but never really knew what was so special about em. now I know, and now I need several. thanks man.
Nice explanation! Those vises are such a state-of-the-art designs. Beauty of craftsmanship and functionality.
Thanks very much mate. You just taught me what a leg vice is and how it differs from a normal bench vice. I had no idea.
Cheers 👍
thank you for answering my question within the first 30 seconds.
Thank you so much. I'm a beginner blacksmith and this really shed some light on what is necessary for the shop!
That tool is the King of Vises.
thank you for sharing your knowledge. That was a very good block of instruction
Props for saving the vintage mounting bracket.
Good video, precise and to the point. Thanks.
Leg vises work a lot better if you mount them more securely. I notice that when you crank that thing down it moves quite a bit. My own leg vise is set into 500 lbs. of concrete so that it doesn't move at all, no matter how hard you crank on or hit it.
I agree. As with anvil, vises need to be securely mounted. I will be moving into a industrial unit soon, once in there everything will be bolted to the concrete.
Paul Krzysz There ya go. I don't think I can get more that 1/32" deflection on my vise, even if I push as hard as I can. It really makes a big difference.
Thanks for the information this was super helpful!
Thanks for answering that for me!!
i seen one , 2 or 3 weeks ago in a video from the post apocalyptic inventor, and strange enough, i found one that belonged to my grand father in my now mom's grande a few days after, but i tough 'ah i got my machinist vise anyway' ok man you convinced me i'll go get it and clean it up! my grand father was blacksmith too, he specialise in horse shoe making, i have a ton of tools there i could take, seems like something fun to do, and i'm a welder so that goes hand in hand with it
Nice job you taught me a few things about one of my favorite tools. :). Take up smithing....you appreciate the metal even more than just as a trade off for a few bucks.
Great vid. Thanks mate!
Thank you for this
good information, I have a vice but the mounting bracket and wedges got lost, I think I can make them after watching this.
Very informative, Many Thanks
good advice thanks
Good video Paul
man how old are you, great video. I'm getting into metalworking and love the full explanation. What do you recomend as a stand in a small area? *I only ask because im 21 and know close to nothing about it and you sound relatively the same age, with a wealth of knowledge.
ok so when looking to buy a blacksmith vise what are things to look for? what is a complete unit? whats a really fair price seen them @ 150 up 600 ? is there more then 1 kind? is 1 better then the other? thanks
Great video
I can't even find these right now. Thanks for the detailed overlook; pretty sure I can come up with something comparable. ^_^
Its difficult depending on the area dont go to CL or EBay collectors on there drive the price up way to fucking high have a look around the junkyards and flea markets places where people need to move things quickly and dont sot on them for years trying to get a bunch of money for them
good vid,i just have a 5 inch craftsman bench vise but i also have a 4x6 leg under the corner of the bench its mounted to.i use it mainly for twisting so it works fine for that and "ok" for a little hammering,either way it came from a garage sale for like 5 bucks.been looking for a leg vise for a while now but every one i find has missing parts or is in terrible shape.thanks for posting.

Where can I find the stuff to mount my leg vise with
cool..learned something
nice job
Can you use a normal table vise
While pricing work at a house, we went to the basement where the HVAC work was to be done. We walk in and I instantly exclaim what on earth is that? A rusty old pole vice I was told and then the owner said it was for sale. His son told him to be quiet. I was awarded the work and returning asked if the vice was for sale. A deal was done and I brought the vice home.and dismantles it. I wire wheeled the entire beautiful thing until it was black steel again. Now the only vice I use. I have been hitting it with a hammer, because I can.
The son wanted to inherit the vice. ha ha
@@danielwilliams1400 you are right
Thanks
Two thumbs up
Great
I can't see the bottom of it and how it transfers shock to the ground....
Ding dangit
thanks
Like the info Paul. I need to go to welding school. Plumbing is boring and lame.
I have a leg vice as well.
wish you would have shown how the foot of the vice is connected. Otherwise a fantastic video, thanks.
I am currently setting up shop in a new spot. Once I'm done I'll do a tour around and show these details better.
What shull you go to?
Awesome intro to leg vice. Not much info about why to use one. Thanks!
how can I make the spring if it is missing on my vise?
Thank You
I used a cut down motor moped suspension spring.
I don't think anyone is still making these things anymore. I have a USA one that I had to rebuild but it was worth it.
I have one
Why did you delete the old swedish tool making videos?
They were removed by the request of the copyright holder.
They can be found on EuScreen.com (website is something like that)
Вчера я купили такую.старый,но вечный тисок.советские,кажеться 50годы.так похоже они на ваше.
I just got 1 for 30 euro no spring or mount but i can make them😁
I noticed you greased the threads,well done. That will destroy these tools faster than rust,
Why's grease bad for the screw?
+John bennett grease is good keep them greased without it the friction will eventually wear out the threads
just bought one, its in very good condition and i only needed to pay 40 euros :D
i go today to buy one ,the owner sold it to me 90 euro!!!wow
Edwin Tigre I got one for nothing today
Its called a " woodruff " key. That screw your talking about.
