This homemade leg vice is the latest addition to my workbench. I apologise upfront for the length and the speed of the video. It was a struggle to fit everything in, so it's a little fast in places. Faster than normal - it's always fast ;) .
The vice turned out amazing - I am really chuffed with it. Thanks to the other guys here on CZcams who have already done this with the scaffold screw and passed on that knowledge - it worked extremely well. I saw Jay Bates use this screw and he got the idea from Dema's Workshop (thanks guys). I decided on adding the St Peters cross as I wanted a pinless vice - I like what Jay Bates has done with a wedge and thought about that system but I'm glad I went with the cross.
The wheel turned out great too - I wracked my brains thinking of what to use, I thought about making one out of wood and inserting lead shot for added weight and I almost used the angle adjustment wheel off my tablesaw which I would have replaced with a homemade one. My mate dropped off these old grinder discs about a year or so ago and asked if they were any good to me? I took them because I couldn't resist even though I had no idea what I would do with them - they were perfect for the vice wheel.
The workbench is now a very usable bench but I may still add to it - watch this space!
I hope you enjoy the video and as always I'm happy to answer any questions.

As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement czcams.com/users/postUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!
Excellent video. I subbed, Awesome insight on how the hell these things actually work. I was curious on where you were going from the beginning but this is amazing. Love the creativity. Great job !
Thank you very much John! :)
I realize this video is ancient, in youtube terms, but I just watched it for the first time and must say that the grinder discs wheel is a thing of beauty. Well done, as per-usual, Mr Pask! Its a treat to watch you build tools.
Thanks very much Beau! :)
I am in awe - so many different skills and processes in that build, and a great result at the end.
This is exactly what I was looking for in a leg vice for my table design! Perfect!
Wow, I really like that workbench! This vice is awesome!
Now that's a man that knows how to work with tools. Great job!
I watch a lot of woodworkers on CZcams. I've only watched two of your videos and you're already one of my new favorites to watch. Love your video style and the quality of craftsmanship. Keep it up!!!
Thank you very much Mike! :)
same here man ^^

I really really loved how you used those old grinding disk!! they came out great!!!
Thanks - I'm very pleased with how they turned out too! :)
Absolutely brilliant! I really enjoyed watching it from the first video. Great work!
I was totally confused about the old grinder wheels until the very point you installed the handle. Bravo!
UBER cool vice. Love the round wheel from grinder discs, looks very retro!
Thank you! I thought the wheel was cool but wasn't sure what others would think - 'hey bud you got grinder discs on your vice!' lol, but it looks like everyone's digging it. :)
the wheel looks AWESOME and is ingenious use of otherwise scrap parts.
@@anthonythibodeau81 I don't understand why they don't have a discount built in, on the new ones, as a thank you for returning the old disks to be reused. Sure, you could pay more without the "core charge" return, but the number of these that likely end up in landfills all over the world must be staggering. Society as a whole is so wasteful. Glad to see craftsmen like this reusing materials instead of throwing them away. We recycle soda cans and beer bottles, why not tool bases?
The old grinder wheels as a wheel was quite clever I think! :-)
Yes but only if you have some :)
Plus it looks so good.
I suppose you could find a pulley of some sort laying around, at a scrap yard, etc...
Engineer first, maker second. The ingenuity that goes into your designs is so impressive.
Great work Pask! Great video on a process (making your own St. Peters Cross) that nobody else has seemed to cover and show so well. IMO yours is the best video on the topic. Keep 'em coming.
Thank you very much - glad you enjoyed it! :)
Very creative. Absolutely love the hand wheel. Well Done !
Thank you Fernando! Looks like the hand wheel is getting good thumbs up! :)
Well done Cobber. Very interesting technique to get a pinless leg vice. Cheers, GG
Thanks Gary! :)
Love all your videos, Neil. I also live in Queensland and always look forward to Australian videos.
Thanks very much Sam! :)
Superb work! The "wheel" is a clever idea. Loved it.
That is so well built. Congratulations and thanks for sharing with us.
No worries Richard!
That's one big kazoo! Great work as always! Obsessed with your videos.
Have been thinking about a new bench and leg vise/vice. Great job, keep them coming!
Thank you David! :)
I have my wife help me with the heavy lifting too :) That chop is beautiful!!!
You are a master!! Love to see your videos!!!
Admire your skills and inventive spirit . Re-using available material around you is fantastic and shows imagination .
That’s just plain old awesome. Nice work again. 😀
Great build, love that scraper holder, genius!
Thanks! Yes, the scraper holder works great :)
That's beautiful. Love the wood. Love the wheel.
Thank you Pete! :)
Very inspiring video. The length didn't bother me at all because if your the kind of guy that knows how to use the tools and understands what your doing the speed skips that long drawn out explanations that some people need to understand what your doing. So for that reason I really enjoyed every part of your video! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Tony! :)
Oh man, the figuring in that wood makes my heart skip a beat... Thanks for sharing this!
No worries! :)
Incredible bench and equally impressive vise! Nice board selection for the jaw! You are very well-rounded in your skills!
Thank you very much Michael! :)
Now that kicks ass!! Love it!
Beautiful and smart! Thanks for the upload
Awesome leg vice great work!
Fantastic as always! Love how you get everything done from scratch with great end results :)
Thank you Cris! Glad you enjoyed it :)
An oldie, but a goodie. Nice job as always
I really like how you work out problems and create. Nice work
Amazing. Subscribed and now I need to go watch all your other bench videos :)
Thank you James! :)
I like that you give everything and honest strength test
Brilliant build Neil and a fantastic video.
what a nice piece of work makes me want to copy it ….and the wood you selected is beautiful thanks for the video
Love it I need to get some of these old grinding disc you made this from thumbs up my friend
That what I call a real DIY. Most videos out there are AIY (assemble it yourself) where they just put thing together. Well done mate!
Thank you Alex! :)
Well, Mr. Paskin, you have outdone yourself this time. I am pleased.
Thank you very much! :)
The vice is great man. I think I love the wheel look the most
Thank you Chris! The wheel was favourite part too! :)
Dear John Heisz, Matthias Wandel and Pask Makes,
For quite a long time I follow your excellent contributions to woodworking and I am still learning. I am fascinated by the simplicity and properties of a leg vice. The one thing that is problematic is the pin that is necessary to operate it. Now I know there are several solutions to make a ‘pinless’ Leg Vice, but it came to my mind to automate/mechanise a pinless design. Now I am not able to do it myself so I thought that it might a nice subject for you to put your teeth in. The idea is as follows. Instead of a pin we take an linear actuator (Electric, Hydraulic or Pneumatic) tot regulate the vertical outlining. Then we need one or two electronic waterpasses to sense the vertical position of the leg and by adding a controller to actuate the actuator you have an automated pinless Leg Vice. Who of you is up to the challenge? Arie van den Ende NL
The trouble you have gone to just to cheer me up during lockdown! Great invention that kept me guessing throughout. Thanks
This is incredible. Fantastic video, loving your projects!
Thank you! :)
Wonderful video and job, I love that wheel!
Mr Pask, you are so creative. Thanks for putting your videos out in the world. These are the best.
Thank you very much Jesse! :)
3:47 - fantastic shot :) seriously awesome build! love the graphics! a pleasure to watch :)
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Wow, This is likely the best video on this that I have seen. I have to build a leg vise and this is on it's own level man...Great Job..
Nice idea of wheels
Simple , work well , I like it .
ingenious and good as always
Good lord that's a beautiful bench. I'm from the US, so seeing figured woods like that used is not common. Also, you gave me a great idea for my own leg vise. I've got an old Walnut(I think) steering wheel from a 60s Mustang that I think will do quite nicely.Thanks for the ideas!
Excellent. And that wood is beautiful!
well done sir ..most creative..love the ingenuity with the hand wheel.
Thank you Grant - glad you like it! :)
Great job pask!!! I've been mulling over how I was gonna build my leg vise and well...let me just say I don't have to mull very much more!😁 great work and thank you!!
No worries - I'm glad it helped you! :)
Excellent piece of work!
Very creative and well done!
Thanks for sharing this with you
That is quite simply, fantastic.
Fine work. Nothing better than a project that uses all your tools and skills.
Thank you! :)
Way cool, man! Looks great!
Thank you! :)

Awesome job, for sec there thought it was some aftermarket pulley. Workbench turning into piece of art!
Thank you! :)
Loving it!
Fantastic video! Love how you solved the problem of the sideways wobble.
Thank you Bruce! That certainly got rid of the majority of it and it's perfectly fine as is but I'm going to try and eliminate the rest. :)
Brilliant ! Congrats !
