  • In this video, we dive into how to make a wooden screw for leg vises, wooden clamps, tail vises, Nicholson vises, Moxon vises, hand screw clamps and more.
    Just adapt the size to fit your needs, the only limitation: your imagination

    When I made my wooden screw I didn't use a router, just carved them with a chisel and file. Took a lot longer than yours, but it worked.

    Clever way to incorporate the router in making the screw threads!

    There are few other techniques on YT but they require immersing the wood in oil for 2 weeks. This method does not require such effort. Well done! The final result is nice.

      You would want to saturate the wood with oil in any case as it makes the wood much more resilient to wear (both hardens the fibres and self lubricates)

  • @michaelheurkens4538
    @michaelheurkens4538 3 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    If you mix the linseed with turpentine to about 50/50 and brush it on, the oil penetrates in to the wood more deeply. Let it dry before waxing.

    • @mChrest05
      @mChrest05 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Another way to go is to wrap a 1/2" wide strip of thick paper or poster board around the dowel at an angle like a barber pole. That will give you two wraps in one inch or 2 tpi.
      Wrap the paper so that the edges butt up against each other. Tape the ends. Trace in between the strips.

  • @wickedwoodgaming1486
    @wickedwoodgaming1486 3 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    You should leave the wood soaking in oil over night. Then when you cut the threads. You will get a way cleaner and smoother cut.

  • @BobBlarneystone
    @BobBlarneystone 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    When drilling with a hole saw, if you drill a few relief holes for the sawdust to drain away then it will be easier. Try marking out you hole, and the drill the relief holes with a 1/4" bit, or maybe a somewhat larger one. When cutting the threads , oil or wax will help with lubrication.

    Nice job. It would be cool, too, making a thread box (aka die) to make the spindle rod threads as well.
    While I like metal acme screws just fine I have often thought of Mike Dunbar’s bench with its wooden screws and I think my ‘next’ bench will have wooden screws in the vises.
    For 25+ years I’ve been using a barely 52” long cobbled-together bench made with scraps from a jobsite dumpster. The vise screw came from a shattered metalworking vise that a ski area shop was throwing out with an 18” piece of LVL for a jaw. It works but I’d like to remake it a little more ‘professional’ to appear commensurate with my quality of work. Nice wooden screws in a bench that doesn’t look like it came from a dumpster (ha ha!)

  • @michaelheurkens4538
    @michaelheurkens4538 3 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I recommend using an olld wool sock or pantyhose for the final buffing. They will shine whatever you have made to a nice gloss and really sets the wax into the wood especially if you generate enough heat from friction while buffing. Cheers.

    • @Jimmy-O-Show
      @Jimmy-O-Show  3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      You can soak the nut in linseed oil after drilling the hole. It would help with the cutting but since you take such small bites it leaves a pretty clean surface as is.
      For the dowel I marked out the pitch using the right size piece of paper taped to it and cut the groove with a handsaw.

    • @Jimmy-O-Show
      @Jimmy-O-Show  ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on the pitch you want. 2 tpi means across the width of the screw the threads would move up .25" that should give you your angle

  • @divermike8943
    @divermike8943 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    You didn't really show how you got the initial spiral groove used to advance the shaft when turned. I figured it out by stopping the video. It's all in the angle at which you mounted the old saw blade. That would be the lead angle and sets the lead = distance the nut travels after one turn (for a single thread). You should emphasize that. It's the most important part and your starting point.

    • @Jimmy-O-Show
      @Jimmy-O-Show  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yes the pitch of the thread matches in both the block and on the screw itself. You can make it whatever you want but 2tpi works good for me

    • @mathquir190
      @mathquir190 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Just use tape and any proper angle. You'll get it really easier that way. You can also use a drill to turn it out and stand the angle if you're too lazy like me.

    Thumbs down cause you did not show you make the initial thread pattern? You did not explain the cutters how you made it?
    Try a tooth brush or a finger nail brush to apply the oil and waxing processes. A shoe polish brush would work for the hard wax also for buffing out! Good results though!
