Mr. Pete, it has been over a year since I have commented on your channel. I can count on you to refresh my interest in shop practice. The passion you have for shop subjects is strong. You are able to hold my attention without waver. Thank you for all you do. Please keep making videos in your unique style. I'm in my late 70's and one of my earliest shop teachers was an English man that was in an exchange program. He had your passion for this subject. You get an A+ for entertaining me. Thank you.
I always make it to the end. Takes me back 30+ years to my Grandads farm and looking at all the tools he had to fix everything with. The good ol’ days. Thanks for the vids!
Mr Pete, your videos are great! You make me miss my shop teachers! They, like you, made/make learning fun. Never ever boring! Collecting and working with tools is better than wasting away in a recliner. Thank you very much! I'm looking forward to getting my first lathe running, making chips, and then buying a bigger lathe :-) !!
Mr Pete, thank you. Your videos are as entertaining as they are instructional. Straight instructional videos with a narrow and concise topic have their place but, the little extra tidbits you include in every presentation are worth their weight in gold. This knowledge being passed on won't be found in any textbook. There is always a history or some other fact about tools and machines that would be lost without people like you. Again thanks, as long as you have stories you will have an audience.
Dear Mrpete222 I am from South Africa and enjoy your videos tremendously. Thank you for all your effort and willingness to share your knowledge. Have a nice day further. Best regards Ernst Pretorius
I did see the whole video, because I think it is very interesting to see the many different types of vices, and very well done. A man with no vices has no grip on life. Thank You for time well spent!!!
I stuck with you till the end! I love the videos and want to THANK YOU for sharing all of the knowledge you share. You obviously enjoy being a teacher.
Dear Mr Pete, I am from South Africa and was forced into retirement before I wanted to,I dreaded the idea until I decided to learn metal turning on a lathe and using your videos.Since I started this hobby at 65 years of age I have not been bored for a second and have so enjoyed learning a new ,useful and interesting trade .Even the covid 19 lockdown time flew by. May your health ,enthusiasm and humor last for many more years . Regards Grey. Norton
Well, still there till the end (as usual, I may add;). I'm a woman too, and I certainly have way more tools than pairs of shoes! You can only walk with shoes, but tools?! You can make plenty of things with it... (like shoes)... even other tools. Try using shoes to make other shoes... not gonna happen! Greetings from France.
All the way with you Mr Tubalcain! It was a very informative tutorial, learned more about vises. I also like when you come up with manufacturers mention, some of those companies are no more but its nice to know of their quality products. Nostalgic, we remember the days of catalogues in magazines. By the way, there is a lot of machine work in Africa - they have to keep their Chinese railstock, and Indian made Tata trucks running among others. Did you know that South Africa, Republic of was one of the countries that made a nuclear device. I live in New Zealand, but was born in Uganda. Thank you.
Thank you for the videos. Between you AvE and Abom79 I now own a lathe and a Bridgeport. Neither of which I had ever used prior to starting watching your videos about a little over a year ago. Keep up the great work and know you're effecting others with them. I'm converting my plastics and woods hobby shop to a machinist shop.
That is not a collection, that is a Hoard. The difference being that a collection put on display to be looked at and admired, a hoard is piled up under work benches and in boxes. And there is nothing wrong with that! Keep making these videos. We love watching them.
Watched the whole video. I have been a tooling salesman since the 80’s and I am a step below a hobbyist machinist and I enjoy your videos. I have said it before but your voice and sense of humor remind me of a dear old friend. Hope you keep beating the dead horse my friend.
I really like the X-Y vises. I have been looking at garage sales and flee markets for a vise and haven't seen not a one. After seeing the cobbled together vise I think I might give it a try to make one, I do have a welder , drill and a saw. Thanks for sharing and giving me the idea of just making one. Was thinking of useing the bolt from a C-clamp, I have a few with acme threaded bolts.
@@chiefrobby3035 The Greenlan/Iceland lie is one of the oldest known PR gimmick. Eiríkr "The Red" wanted a lot of followers moving with him to "Greenland" so he misrepresented things a bit...
Thanks Mr. Pete. I watch you videos quite often and plan on using a handful in my new career as a community college Machine Tool Technology Instructor. Ps in only 24!
Tubalcain and AvE, are in their own way, two of the most entertaining and educational men of the youtube world. You can learn more in one or two videos than you would in a semester of university. This coming from a 4th year engineering student. Keep up the great work!
Enjoyed seeing the collection! Would love to see you machine those castings into a pair of small vises. You need two more, haha. Thanks Mr Pete for your contributions to the TH-cam community!
Yes I was with you through the whole video. However if you ever go to sell some of those small ones give me a heads up would you? I am female and don't need a big one, but because I'm a hobbyist I do need one. Many blessings to you Mr Pete!
Mr. Pete, if you care to donate one of your small vises to Tracy, ship to me first for detailing on my surface grinder at no cost. I'll then ship to her free shipping. Reply if interested for more. Thanks.
I love the little Palmgren vises because you can stand them on end, squarely. I was lucky to find a 1 1/2" model. They are also nice because you can clamp them in a mill vise. Mine spends most of it's time under a hand-tapping rig.
Thanks Mr. Pete, can't have too many. An hour's work on a surface grinder with square angle plate can turn these cast slugs into very accurate toolmaker vises. Made it to the end with some skipping.
Just had an enjoyable 35 minutes love the shoe comment I will have to count my wife's shoes and when she next say's what do you want that tool for!!! looking forward to the next video in West Australia
Finally got around to watching this video. Couldn't stop! Almost everyone of the vises was your favorite. I guess your kids won't have to worry about which one you love the most, because you just can't decide. Of course I watched to the end. I might have missed your most favorite vise.
Hello Mr Pete/Tubal, I haven't read through all 463 comments so someone else may have already said this, Regarding the larger of the two "Cardinal" Buttress thread vises, it appears to me that the damage to the sole/bed of the vise is easily repairable & might be a fun project It's visible at about 22:50 when you noted that the fixed jaw and half nut are removable I believe that when the fixed jaw & nut are removed the upper part of the bed/sole plate also comes off allowing replacement effectively fixing all of those "schoolboy scars" If anyone has already spotted that please forgive my repetition. Best Regards Rick
Mr Pete, Those little home made vices were a project we made in machine shop in grade nine... I remember getting a poor grade on the one I made from those identical cast blocks... I kept mine for many years in my tool box until I decided to take it apart and remachie it... I think if we had the same equipment in school as we did in our large manufacturig areana I may have goten a much better mark... That said, those little castings are what we started with... Enjoy the video, brings back the fun times we experienced in those days...Bob
"Is anybody watching this?" Yes I did, all the way through and didn't doze off once! You have mentioned you are a man of "many vises" and you certainly made that point in this video. You know I laugh out loud every time you hold up that graphic of a man beating a dead horse. In fact I laughed as I wrote this. So thank you for a laugh as well as a tour through your many vises.
I made it to the end. I was so impressed with the Heinrich vices that I went on ebay and purchased a used "3ts grip master drill press vise". It looked to be in excellent shape (just surface rust). I thought $78 including shipping was a steal. Great video!
Have never shut you off early yet MrPete, with you till the end. I know I'm not supposed to covet another man's vise (or something like that), but I have a serious case of vise envy. I only have two vises so far, one is from the chinesium store like the first one you said you hate. The other one came with my antique 21 in. Buffalo Forge. It's a 6 in. Speed Vise. Great vise, although it looks like the craters of the moon. I think Bubba must have used it when he was in highschool. I'm wanting to get a new vise so this video was great to see. Thanks again MrPete.
I wonder if I in my lifetime will ever meet a person, who will sit down with me and enjoy this video as much as I did. I doubt it. Would be lovely, though.
I'm also a confirmed toolhead so I actually watched the whole video and smiled knowingly through almost all of it. Not to mention a couple of "LOOK AT THAT ONE!" s.....
Absolutely stuck around till the end! Those little vise castings are very interesting and I think they would make a fun project! Thanks for sharing as always Mr Pete!
Hey Mr. Lyle 2 years late but here from the dark continent namely south Africa we mostly have record vices here in older shops they last forever and a day. oldest vice i saw was a Howard Iron Works No 1 casting date on it was late 1800 and was still being used.
Of course I watched the whole thing! Quite the collection and fun yak about them. I have the 6" Heinrich I got free that was being tossed, barely used but some Bubba left coolant on it and put it on a shelf to rot. Cleaned up fine and what a fine piece of equipment. I'd love to run across one of the center drill ones with the drill bushings you have, that thing is artwork to me. Thanks Mr. Pete!
I get watch it all the way to the end. Wanted to tell you thank you very much for all that you do. Your information is always appreciated. Best wishes from South Louisiana.
Great video and I used it to pass on to a friend who has one of the Japanese vises from his Grandpa and He wondered what it was used for and if it was any good. Now he knows. Well done.
I watched the complete video. I was awestruck by all of your vises. I'm envious. I order a drill press vice from O'Keefe 2 weeks ago. Yesterday they refunded my money as they have no stock. I'll try to order the other vise and see what happens.
:) I think you could be called VISE President ;) and I also think that many of your viewers made it to the end . All the best to you and your family. thanks for sharing
that cast iron speed vice would make an awesome project. i have prepared many parts like this with scrap cast iron scrap mill out the pecked up bottom section and braze in a slab of nicely prepared cast iron. the brazed in part will be very very strong. you can then improve the vice by milling out the a through slot. i love doing that sort of thing
Lyle, I stayed with you all the way. I too have many vises, but you have me beat for sure! You were talking about how you had students drill through the part, vise, and the drill press table. I once had a student who was making a drill gauge counter sink through every hole in his project. He was quite certain that I was an idiot! since such a project could never be used to identify any drills! I am quite certain he never really looked at the print. All the best! Mike
All the way to the end ! I have vise envy. I only have nine that I can think of. I have a couple of the small palmgren vises that I got after seeing one in one of your older videos. I just had to have one lol. Thanks for sharing.
Stayed for the whole class, Mr. Pete. Also swept out the welding booths and clapped the chalkboard erasers. ;^) BTW.... not a "collection", but a "work in progress"
As requested, I stayed the course and watched the whole video. I've been watching your vids for several years now, trying to figure out if I have more tools than you do. I think you have me beat. Keep the vids coming, you are fun to watch. Regards, Chuck Arkon
Just discovered your videos because of the "vises", and really enjoy them... wish I could have taken some shop classes in school, but they weren't available at the Catholic grade school I attended, and didn't take any in high school since I was destined for college... regret that now... but I always loved tinkering and fixing stuff once I got out of college and got a career as an "IT Systems Analyst/Programmer"... now retired (Thank God !). I've only had two drill press vises... the first a Sears Craftsman, simple type that I disliked because I couldn't adjust it to where I wanted it when drilling something without adjusting it on the drill press table... then I got a Harbor Freight X-Y cross slide vise that allowed me to make simple adjustments, and love it ! I would not own or use anything else, except an X-Y cross-slide vise... I'm sure there are much better ones than the Harbor Freight, but it has met my needs so far, and the HF one was very affordable, especially with a 20% off coupon. I did watch your video all the way to the end... intrigued by the various vises that you presented. Being "drill press" vises, I assumed they would have to be mounted on the drill press, but many that you have and shown do not seem to have a way to mount them... maybe they just get clamped into another vise that is mounted to the drill press ?
Held by hand ? Geez, I would have never thought so... I got a lot to learn... makes me want to take an "adult" machine shop class... I'll be watching more of your videos.
I liked Millers Falls as well. They even made power tools at one time. They absorbed the Goodell Pratt line and were sold to Ingersoll Rand a long time ago. The name is now owned by a Chinese concern.
I am trying very hard to understand why I laughed at that Dunlap joke. That dad joke could only have been delivered with your signature style to have landed so flawlessly. I was in stitches.
You tell me who's crazier. The woman with only 2 feet and 30 pairs of shoes. Or the man that has 30 different vises that also has 10 different machines that each need a vise. There's a vise for every task. And I do love that Heinrich vise!!! I'll be on the lookout for those from now on!! Thanks Tubalcain for the great vise video!! I'm a lover of vises as well and always on the lookout for unique vises and good deals. My favorite is my Reed bench vise that I got for $60 and once I cleaned it up it turned out to be in excellent condition and it's well over a hundred years old. The threads have zero visible wear on them and most of these vises are victims of abuse from idiots that think they're anvils or drill through the workpiece and clear into the dynamic jaw slide, but not this one. Just need to make some soft jaws because those hardened and serrated jaws will marr every thing. And who in the world can start a Mr. Pete video and not watch the entire thing?!?!
Of course I watched it all the way to the end! That's a heck of a lot of vices. I hope you found all those assorted parts that fell on the floor and put them back with the vices they fell off of.
Mr.pete222 people are still watching your videos to the end. ScoutCrafter recommended your channel. I have a LOT of catching up to do! We have a lot of similar interests. It's as if you made all these videos just for me. I hope you are staying as safe as you can in this difficult time. We don't want you taking a dirt nap anytime soon. May the Lord bless you and keep you.

I am from South Africa and enjoy your videos tremendously.
Thank you for all your effort and willingness to share your knowledge.
Have a nice day further.
Best regards
Ernst Pretorius
Thank you for watching, you are on the other side of the world from me
I did see the whole video, because I think it is very interesting to see the many different types
of vices, and very well done.
A man with no vices has no grip on life.
Thank You for time well spent!!!
Yes, many of us watch the full length. Always a pleasure, THANKS!
Watched it all the way through. It was gripping!
I'm still with you Mrpete. Love your vises. Thanks for sharing. I learned a thing or two
I said to myself, I could watch you all day and before I know it, I have! You are a great teacher!
Another South African watching and enjoying your humour and musings. Tool lovers and hoarders all over the world.
Thanks
I stuck with you till the end! I love the videos and want to THANK YOU for sharing all of the knowledge you share. You obviously enjoy being a teacher.
Watched the whole video Mr Pete, I enjoy the background stories. I appreciate very much the humor. Keep it up, Thanks

That is not a collection, that is a Hoard. The difference being that a collection put on display to be looked at and admired, a hoard is piled up under work benches and in boxes.
And there is nothing wrong with that!
Keep making these videos. We love watching them.
I just love these rambling videos mrpete 222. Thank you ever so much.
Thanks
I watch the whole video, a lot of good information about different designs and manufacturers. You pretty much nailed it sir.
Thanks
Watched the whole video. I have been a tooling salesman since the 80’s and I am a step below a hobbyist machinist and I enjoy your videos. I have said it before but your voice and sense of humor remind me of a dear old friend. Hope you keep beating the dead horse my friend.

Thanks again. Videos of all your tools reminds me of when I was a kid in the candy store!

Made it to the end! Didn't feel like 35 mins. It was perfect timing, playing around with some vise ideas at the moment. Thanks for sharing mate!
Always enjoy your shop classes. Thank you for your time and effort.
Thank you for making this video to help the younger generation gain the useful knowledge.
👍👍
I always watch your videos "in toto", especially enjoying the off-topics and the rants!

You are a real treasure Pete.You take a mundane subject and make it interesting
Enjoyed seeing the collection! Would love to see you machine those castings into a pair of small vises. You need two more, haha. Thanks Mr Pete for your contributions to the TH-cam community!
Watched with great interest 'till the end. The equine carcass has been well tenderized. Thanks Mr. Pete!
Yes I was with you through the whole video. However if you ever go to sell some of those small ones give me a heads up would you? I am female and don't need a big one, but because I'm a hobbyist I do need one. Many blessings to you Mr Pete!
Mr. Pete, if you care to donate one of your small vises to Tracy, ship to me first for detailing on my surface grinder at no cost. I'll then ship to her free shipping. Reply if interested for more. Thanks.
Tracy, you are the only woman, at the risk of Lyle banning me for life, that said she doesn't need a big one! vice that is.
A man of many vices is true and that's why I watched this from start to finish.
👍👍

Reg.T or the cabinet full of make up and perfume
👌🤙
Every video you've made has been watched by myself in their entirety and been thoroughly enjoyed!!
Finally got around to watching this video. Couldn't stop! Almost everyone of the vises was your favorite. I guess your kids won't have to worry about which one you love the most, because you just can't decide. Of course I watched to the end. I might have missed your most favorite vise.
Watched all the way through Mr Pete. Thanks for sharing

I watched it all the way in my home in the Grand Duchy of luxembourg, I love your videos and look forward to the next!. Jim Ashton.¨¨
We all have our vices mine's watch Mr Pete's videos to the end :-)
The whole thing I like your videos I wish I had you as my shop teacher
Mr.Jenkins, Mr. Pete is your shop teacher on every video you watch. I hope he'll keep 'em coming for many more years.
Yes your right, But you know what I mean 40 years ago when I was first starting out

Hi Lyle,
I was here for the entire video. Guess I just like your style of making videos. :-)
still watching at 35min... I'm from France but my wife is from Morocco...
thanks for the inspiration, chief, and keep on trucking !
"Is anybody watching this?" Yes I did, all the way through and didn't doze off once! You have mentioned you are a man of "many vises" and you certainly made that point in this video. You know I laugh out loud every time you hold up that graphic of a man beating a dead horse. In fact I laughed as I wrote this. So thank you for a laugh as well as a tour through your many vises.
😀😀👍
Enjoyed the whole thing! I don't think I have ever NOT watched any of your videos all the way through.
Watched the whole thing! Thanks for your work, I learn so much from then!
I guess there are worse vices to have than collecting vises.
You got that right, maybe I should have gone with vises instead.
Real good play on words there
Lyle, another great one for reasons of my own !!! Thanks a bunch. Your friend here in southwest Michigan, Cliff
love these vises! I have a tilting one and I love it! good video Mr. Pete
I made it to the end. I was so impressed with the Heinrich vices that I went on ebay and purchased a used "3ts grip master drill press vise". It looked to be in excellent shape (just surface rust). I thought $78 including shipping was a steal. Great video!

I watched it to the end.I’m glad I discovered this channel.Great information and a Lotta good humor
Welcome aboard!
24 year old welder here; I made it to the end. I am very jealous of your Heinrich vise
👍👍
Absolutely stuck around till the end! Those little vise castings are very interesting and I think they would make a fun project! Thanks for sharing as always Mr Pete!
I watched the whole video and gave it a thumbs up as well. Thanks for
the fine presentation.
Yes, I watch just about all your stuff. I really enjoy them.
Hey Mr. Lyle 2 years late but here from the dark continent namely south Africa we mostly have record vices here in older shops they last forever and a day. oldest vice i saw was a Howard Iron Works No 1 casting date on it was late 1800 and was still being used.

I always watch ALL your videos, this one all the way to the 35:33, time mark. Thanks for sharing your vises with use.
I watched it all the way thru as I am seriously considering making a pair of small vices. Thank you Lyle !!
🤙🤙

Made it all the way to the end. I watch and enjoy all of your videos, and eagerly check for new ones every morning.
that cast iron speed vice would make an awesome project.
i have prepared many parts like this with scrap cast iron scrap
mill out the pecked up bottom section and braze in a slab of nicely prepared cast iron.
the brazed in part will be very very strong. you can then improve the vice by milling out the a through slot.
i love doing that sort of thing
👍👍
I love it to the end. now I know I don't have enough vises. thank you
😀🤙👌
Yes I stayed to the end! The Speedvice can be fixed, the slide is just a piece of CRS held on with the two bolts from the bottom.
I watched from beginning to end...Lots of great vices...👍🏻👍🏻
Lyle,
I stayed with you all the way. I too have many vises, but you have me beat for sure! You were talking about how you had students drill through the part, vise, and the drill press table. I once had a student who was making a drill gauge counter sink through every hole in his project. He was quite certain that I was an idiot! since such a project could never be used to identify any drills! I am quite certain he never really looked at the print.
All the best!
Mike
How would any of us dare to not watch the whole video? Loved this vice roundup!
🤙
I watched from beginning to end. Love your musings!
Stayed the whole time and enjoyed every minute.
Thank you for another interesting video.
Interesting and entertaining, as always.
Thank You.
All the way to the end ! I have vise envy. I only have nine that I can think of. I have a couple of the small palmgren vises that I got after seeing one in one of your older videos. I just had to have one lol. Thanks for sharing.
Stayed for the whole class, Mr. Pete. Also swept out the welding booths and clapped the chalkboard erasers. ;^) BTW.... not a "collection", but a "work in progress"
As requested, I stayed the course and watched the whole video. I've been watching your vids for several years now, trying to figure out if I have more tools than you do. I think you have me beat. Keep the vids coming, you are fun to watch. Regards, Chuck Arkon
Just discovered your videos because of the "vises", and really enjoy them... wish I could have taken some shop classes in school, but they weren't available at the Catholic grade school I attended, and didn't take any in high school since I was destined for college... regret that now... but I always loved tinkering and fixing stuff once I got out of college and got a career as an "IT Systems Analyst/Programmer"... now retired (Thank God !).
I've only had two drill press vises... the first a Sears Craftsman, simple type that I disliked because I couldn't adjust it to where I wanted it when drilling something without adjusting it on the drill press table... then I got a Harbor Freight X-Y cross slide vise that allowed me to make simple adjustments, and love it !
I would not own or use anything else, except an X-Y cross-slide vise... I'm sure there are much better ones than the Harbor Freight, but it has met my needs so far, and the HF one was very affordable, especially with a 20% off coupon.
I did watch your video all the way to the end... intrigued by the various vises that you presented.
Being "drill press" vises, I assumed they would have to be mounted on the drill press, but many that you have and shown do not seem to have a way to mount them... maybe they just get clamped into another vise that is mounted to the drill press ?
Thank you for watching, glad you found me. I have over 1000 videos. Most drill press vises are Held by hand. Yes, and x y vise Is really handy
Held by hand ? Geez, I would have never thought so... I got a lot to learn... makes me want to take an "adult" machine shop class... I'll be watching more of your videos.
My uncle had a serious vice when it came to vises. Couldn't seem to pass them up when he saw a used one at a sale.
I liked Millers Falls as well. They even made power tools at one time. They absorbed the Goodell Pratt line and were sold to Ingersoll Rand a long time ago. The name is now owned by a Chinese concern.
Getting to the end was easy. You have interesting vises.
Enjoyed all 35 minutes and 33 seconds of it
Watched it all and thank you for a tour of your collection.
I am trying very hard to understand why I laughed at that Dunlap joke. That dad joke could only have been delivered with your signature style to have landed so flawlessly. I was in stitches.
lol thanks
You tell me who's crazier. The woman with only 2 feet and 30 pairs of shoes. Or the man that has 30 different vises that also has 10 different machines that each need a vise. There's a vise for every task.
And I do love that Heinrich vise!!! I'll be on the lookout for those from now on!!
Thanks Tubalcain for the great vise video!! I'm a lover of vises as well and always on the lookout for unique vises and good deals. My favorite is my Reed bench vise that I got for $60 and once I cleaned it up it turned out to be in excellent condition and it's well over a hundred years old. The threads have zero visible wear on them and most of these vises are victims of abuse from idiots that think they're anvils or drill through the workpiece and clear into the dynamic jaw slide, but not this one. Just need to make some soft jaws because those hardened and serrated jaws will marr every thing.
And who in the world can start a Mr. Pete video and not watch the entire thing?!?!
So then I’m not crazy owning all these vises? lol
@@mrpete222 Absolutely. We all are, but not for owning that many vises. Lol!
Of course I watched it all the way to the end! That's a heck of a lot of vices. I hope you found all those assorted parts that fell on the floor and put them back with the vices they fell off of.
Enjoyed learning about the different types of vises. Made it through to the end.
Mr.pete222 people are still watching your videos to the end. ScoutCrafter recommended your channel. I have a LOT of catching up to do! We have a lot of similar interests. It's as if you made all these videos just for me. I hope you are staying as safe as you can in this difficult time. We don't want you taking a dirt nap anytime soon. May the Lord bless you and keep you.
Thanks
