    That is such a versatile idea.
    It can save you money by just doing that simple trick.
    Now I know what to buy. Instead of buying expensive bench vise, I will try that idea of yours !!

    Sergio you are a good man with common sense. Thankyou. Using a mobile vice or its parts is way cheaper that buying a kit or a vice. Cheers to you.

    I was about to spend $60 to $100 on a woodworkers vise and you just showed me how to make one practically free and 10 times the size. TY!

    Best easy and cheap clamp setup I’ve seen. Hope to build it soon. I think I already have the parts - that always wins!!!

    Thank you, you just saved me roughly $16-$20 with this design!!!! FOR NOW, I do not need to go out & buy Pipe Clamps to make myself a bench clamp!!!! Thank you again for such a SUPER SIMPLE idea/design!

    That is one nice Moxon vise! Very simple to make and inexpensive too. Thanks for sharing this very helpful tutorial.

  • @5ivestring

    I was trying to think of a way to do this, and just kept coming up short. I was in my mind, using pipe bar clamps, and there wasn't a good way of adjusting the pipe length. I also had over complicated the whole affair. I thought about it on and off for months. Along comes Sergio with the simplest of solutions and a vice that is useful. I give you AAA+++ for thinking outside the box. Good job. It was so easy to do, no time at all. The only thing I have left to do is go to the store tomorrow and get some kind of angle bolt, or make something that will work, but that is easy.
    GREAT JOB!

    That is the most straight forward and easy to follow video. Thanks for saving me LOTS of money. I will add this to the other end of my work bench.
    This is truly a money saver . Keep up the great videos please.

    This is awesome. Last winter I tried to build a simple vice but I did not succeed. In the end I found it too complicated
    and I did not finish it since that time. This looks so much easier. One of my next projects. Thanks for sharing.

    • @bernardhvanengen5002
      @bernardhvanengen5002 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Sergio, good job, however it could be easier with just the square hooks, a pair of standard clamps and any piece of fairly thick wood. On my workbench I have a higher apron with dogholes in which I use doghole clamps or modified F-clamps and a piece of scrap wood.

    • @watcherdude1330
      @watcherdude1330 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Bernard that is a very good idea of dog holes. That would work really well . Good thinking outside of the box 📦

  • @yizhuolin3906
    @yizhuolin3906 3 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @markschiavone8003
    @markschiavone8003 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    What a extremely versatile vise!! You can put additional slots to hold your clamps further away for wider peices , use longer clamps. I will adapt this to my job site bench!! Thanks

    • @WoodworkingwithDIYtools
      @WoodworkingwithDIYtools  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Making some different wide wooden jaws and getting ready the workbench to install the one you need ... thank you, that's a nice idea 👍

  • @5ivestring
    @5ivestring 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Ok Sergio, so simple, so fast. It took about a half hour to an hour. The only thing I had to change was the L bracket to an eye bolt as I couldn't find a bolt pre bent or one I could bend where I live. I put an eye bolt on each side of the clamp and put a hitch pin in to hold the clamp. (hitch pin, think of a strong bobby pin). I'm up and running now. Thanks again.

  • @KipIngram
    @KipIngram 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I used 3/4" threaded rod from Lowe's for my vise. I bought a two-foot length of the rod and all of the nuts and washers needed for $14. I used scrap 2x6 for the faces, and just bored holes for the rod to pass through. Starting from the back, the hardware layout for each screw was (nut)(washer)(fixed jaw)(recessed nut) -- opening - (movable jaw)(washer)(nut). I used a mallet and chisel to cut the recessed nut holes - didn't take that long. I cut and rounded/smoothed two knob-shaped handles and recessed the front nuts into those. I spent a little extra and put leather on the jaw faces. The leather actually cost about twice what the hardware did, so it wound up being a $45 vise. But it's got 20 inches or so of clear opening and it clamps like a champ as long as the piece reaches both above and below the level of the rods.
