I really enjoyed this one and I also got chance to try out my new milling machine. I was going to add checkering to the jaws but decided to see how they go without and I can always add that later on. I should also mention for anyone that doesn't know, a vice (like this one I've restored) is spelled 'vice' here in Australia and not spelled wrongly.

This old Tony "ToT" is a great and very entertaining channel to watch for milling machines, loads of information. Well done on your vice restoration looks brand new!
For the evaporust bath you can also just stick the vise in a bag, place that in a bucket of water, keeping it out of the bag, and then add the evaporust into the bag with the vise, the water will help hold the evaporust right against the vise and it’ll prevent too much excess space around it so you’ll get full coverage😊
@@roterex9115 in the States we tend to use lower case "c" clamps. It seems the Australian crowd prefers capital "C" clamps. Do you have any other all caps tools? As I write this through snickering, I feel compelled to admit how I envy these tools. Also, Ive heard "you can never have enough clamps". Will some number of these actually prove that phrase wrong?
I am so sorry for this, but when you pulled out that clamp, all I could think was Dundee saying "That's not a clamp, here's a clamp!". :) Also helps with the Australian accent! :D
As a machinist, I agree: 1st Blondihacks is a great channel 2nd having the faces of the vise jaws square isn't terribly important. Having the opposite faces parallel is more important but even then these are jaws for a bench vise, so as long as the jaw will close nicely with no gap you're golden. Great video!
Neil is the man. His work is quality, he is honest about the effort he puts into work tools for what the tool will truly be needed for and yes he makes mistakes. He's a man of craft and his talent comes from time, trial and error in new adventures and learning from it. The gift from this man and channel is letting us explore with him and see his craft. And the most important.. we get to see how he ventures into unknowns with excitement, lessons and honesty into projects like this that isn't his rhelm. I feel like I'm sitting across the bench from him trying to figure things out and feeling good about it when I watch his content. All the respect in the world for this man.
I fully agree with you review! I like his perfectionism. The first set of jaws he made, a couple mm short on one side, would work just fine, but they would bother Neil every time he used the vise, hence he had to make a second set, even though if it wastes material (spent on the first set). As a perfectionist myself, I fully understand the feelings that must have been going through his head.
Blondihacks is a great channel! The vise looks great. With some clever fixturing, a d-bit, and time you could make another set of jaws that are “knurled”.
Once again a great video. Thank You for showing all the steps in your restoration. I find lots of videos that miss steps or lose footage. It also is of great help when using cleaners or chemicals / products that you explain their purpose since terminology and products vary from country to country. Also very nice that you showed how to touch after painting when you were not satisfied with the result. As always I’ve learned a lot that is applicable to other projects.
Having watched a number of your videos by this point, I have to say that I'm impressed that you show your mistakes. Many TH-cams "makers" would rather pet a turd than show something they did wrong. Much like yourself, I tend to learn from things that went wrong, and to date, I've yet to repeat the same mistake. In any event, your videos have been and continue to be an inspiration. Thank you.
I cannot explain the sheer joy I felt hearing my favorite youtuber talk about learning from another one of my favourite youtubers! Hopefully there will be some collaborations in future and with your mind I can only imagine you'll be an expert in no time❤
I am so glad to see some people refurbishing old and neglected tools back to good usable working condition again. Things last longer when people take care of them. Thanks for the video Pask
For a freebie thrown in with the workbench it is still a plenty serviceable vise after the work you put into it. The blue paint makes it look even better.
Just as I suspected: A restauration video by Neil? ROCKS!. Very good to see the Mill in action for the first time! Brutally good video, like always!!!! Cheers!
Another great video! That gigantic clamp looked like something Wile E Coyote would have lol. I love listening to you as you explain what you are doing and why. You have a very calming aura.
Can I swear? I'll blank it out tho!!.... That was f*****g superb. It wasn't one of those ''perfect-no-problems-encountered'' videos. You showed the minor screw ups when making the jaws too short. You showed the part where you re-filled the metal and had to re-paint. You told us that bolts were too short and will be replaced. You mentioned you are still learning with the milling machine, but having fun along the way. This was a real video. And one I appreciate for the bloody good work at the end of the job, the honesty, and for showing the ''mistakes'' you made along the way. All the best. Dogue.
A few years ago I made a set of copper jaws for my vice, and I had a hell of a time getting the screw holes in the right place. I envy you your milling machine.
Really beautiful work, man! It looks fantastic! 😃 You know, I saw the other day a guy making a box for sandblasting! He used a big plastic box, put a metal sheet in it, put a glass in the lid and 2 thick gloves for the hands... Then he just bought a sandblasting pistol to use with the air compressor! I'm thinking about doing the same! 😃 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I higly recommend you to get an edge finder and a milling stop. In my opinion these are two of the most important tools to mill symmetrical or identical parts. You could also make the stop yourself, I reckon this would be a nice scrap steel challenge.
Pask we all know you don’t make mistakes!! No need to add them in there to make us mere mortals feel good!! 😂 Outstanding job as always! I always learn watching the master work!!
Neil, when I restored a similar sized dawn vice last year I took the opportunity to put a thrust bearing on the front face under the screw. Since you now have a milling machine you could make a recess for the thrust bearing and make it seat perpendicular to the handle. Welcome to the multi medium world; now get ready to start shelling out on tooling for the mill !
It's very cool to see you learning how to use a milling machine, you can make so many more things now! Just gotta learn how! Small stuff and patience, that's how you learn using new tools. I happen to... not own a milling machine, so I'll just learn from you for a while xD Very excited to see more! Oh, and great job on the vise xD
When I mounted my vise, I decided to add a wood base made from a scrap piece of oak stair tread. It seems to absorb some shock that might other wise crack the vise. Anyways, that's what I tell myself.
I have to agree it turned out great and I enjoyed watching your process. And you are right Blondie hacks is a an excellent you tube channel to watch. Thanks for sharing
Those will effectively be soft jaws because of the mild steel. They'll be good to hold most things. You could make another set out of copper or brass to hold delicate surfaces and keep the old jaws as they are hardened and will be good to get a really good grip on something if you're not worried about marking the surface.
Te felicito señor!. Entretenido, bien explicado, con humildad de tu parte!. Me gustó mucho el que mencionaras los errores cometidos y hasta los incluyeras en el video. ESO marca la diferencia!. Todos comeremos errores y es saludable de tu parte el compartirlos a los que somos entusiastas en el mantenimiento y restauración de herramientas. Abrazo afectuoso desde Irapuato GTO México. 😊
Love seeing how your work has progressed from wood to steel and more, and your love of learning had added plenty of new tools to your arsenal. Quinn over at BlondieHacks is defo a good teacher as well. On ya, Paskers. Snags and coopers on me if I ever meet ya!
Hey Neil, I see you used evaporust to clean the rust off this vice and it occurred to me that you might be interested in trying out electrolysis rust removal. I set up a system a while ago myself and it works wonders - that method might actually even have had some small success peeling the red primer out of the nooks and crannies of your vice. Future video idea perhaps old chap? No pressure haha. Love your work mate. Thanks for doing the vice restoration, we’ve been looking forward to it!
Pask, I've been subscribed since Scrapwood Challenge 17 (or 18 I think). Your videos never fall to entertain. Your project are interesting, your audio is clean, and your work ethic is very down to earth. Well done, mate. Keep up the great work.
Much as I enjoy watching other creator's "perfect restorations", those seem impossible to achieve, this seems like "Hey, I can do that!" Awesome! Especially loved those enormous clamps :)
'It's not perfect, but it will stop it from rusting.' That handle has been restored to better condition that 95% of new vices. Nothing better than old steel bought back to life.
To bring back that vise from the reaper is the logical thing to do! Fantastic!! A masterpiece! Love watching movies on restoring vintage vises! Bye bye shipmate!!!
Nicely done Neil, but I thought you were going to cross-hatch the jaws on your mill. Also, I like the shout out to Quinn's channel. She does some pretty cool stuff.
Nice job! Loved your spring compressor, and who hasn't at one time or another used their vice as a press? Good plug for Quinn and Sprocket! She's a talented machinist, and Sprocket is, ... well Sprocket!
A fantastic job, you have given it a second life and it has been better than new, I really enjoyed watching the process. Best regards from Spain and happy weekend!
Cleaning the weld splatter with the grinder turned it into a mirror! You did a cracking job on the vise Neil and going forward I'm sure we will see some pretty Stella thing's being done with your milling machine!!! As always buddy 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.
Nice resto, and good to see you got a milling machine. That’ll open up new options for making things. Quinn’s mill skills videos are brilliant, probably the best on TH-cam.
I tend to push the like button as soon as I start a Pask Makes video anyway, seeing that clamp chuckled to myself as that bloody thing is very OTT but deffo' worth using any opportunity. awesome as always, thanks for sharing
I have my wife's grandfather's vice that I need to do this to. His was on a swivel base, and I've got to find the replacement bolts for it. Not sure what the bolts are called, but they have the metal rod that goes through the head to tighten/loosen. They were pretty bent up when I got it.
I bought at 40 liter ultrasonic unit. I have used EVAPO-RUST in the ultrasonic tank. It would clean a vise like that in under 10 minutes. I have cleaned many of the parts for restoration of my five 1800s camel-back drill presses. I needed one of every size so I could truly call myself a nut or collector. The smallest is a Canedy Otto at 17 kilos. The largest is a WF and John Barnes at over a half ton. They are all in active duty.
Ah! I figured out why I like that your videos don’t have music (besides the fact that people often use lousy music). For me, it makes it much more like hanging out with a friend in their shop.

Of course VICE is the correct spelling, not the American corruption vise
If you start collecting them, they can truly become a vice.

This may be the best tip I've ever read in the comments of a video. Genius!
Those clamps are absolutely absurd and i love them
They really are hey! I can't get my head around the idea of such a big clamp so it makes Neil look like he's a foot tall 😄

Instantly thought the same thing, glad to see this as the top comment, it would have been criminal if no one had posted it yet. 🔪

Classic 😂 however I think it is a British accent of some description
In you videos, every time you say "... as best I can" it's always better than anyone else could or would bother to.

Hey Neil, I see you used evaporust to clean the rust off this vice and it occurred to me that you might be interested in trying out electrolysis rust removal.
