The first one reminds me of my exacto knife set. It's amazing how many different blades they make that all fit in the same handle. The second one looks really handy for holding small tools of many types. A cool review. I always like it when you have the giant version of the tool. Cheers :-)
Used them all the time, esp for making smal rivets for earings, filing silver/gold wire for puling it thru trafila. Normaly for driling (smal bearing and ball on other end), sometimes for hard soldering of wire on objects, marking needle, taping threads under 3mm. Its wery interesting seing the diff betvene US and our European styes.
The only thing I've ever used a pin vise for was to hold very tiny drill bits for hand drilling. Hadn't even thought of your listed uses. I guess that demonstrates the difference between a machinist and a duffer.
I've used them for hand drilling, especially on circuit boards through holes that needed enlargement. But, my Dremel tool drill press is used to drill multiple holes on circuit boards, etc.
@@noggin73 Not sure which chuck you are looking at but I've not found a decent chuck for Dremel. There are good after-market collets available though. I do use my pin vise and have a jeweler's hand vise as well. Anything larger and I chuck it up in my table top Wen 3/4" drill press. Don't think it would work with tiny drills though as it has too much vibration. Now the old monster drill press I ran in a machine shop as a kid over 50 years ago was smooth as silk!
Look up pin chuck. Very similar but the handle is plain and can be fitted in a machine chuck / collet The tend to ve shorter so will fit into smaller drill chucks as well. Andy
A pin vise with a hexagonal cap in a heat shrink and with a steel needle is the best probe for a multimeter
That’s brilliant.

Me too. I always thought they were meant as a precision hand drill 😂
As a plastic modeller I only ever used them as hand drills.
Gotta have pin vises. Used mine yesterday to clean out a small hole.

I hate the Dremel bit system. Why can't they use some kind of mini chuck? Oh, apparently they exist.

I used them to hold tape guide adjusting jigs for micro video tape decks years ago, very useful little device.
Always learning something useful and interesting on your channel. Thank you for your efforts.

I’ve had one of the double end ones for years, never knew what it was called. Now I know.
I was today years old when I learned what a "pin vice" is. And I thought I knew something about tools. Jinkies!
This seams to be a very spezialized tool for sure. But as a hobby crafter i used different (small) drill chucks as a makeshift alternative 😇
Very handy to hold needle files .

To make an open-ended pipe out of a double ended collet, just remove the opposing collet?
only if you are lucky that the dual collect is being used on the smaller end as the other end of the double collect will block it.
Wow
