Right at this moment I'm using a voice exactly like this. It's been my main vice for the past 5 or 6 years. I mostly use it to sharpen lawn mower blades but right now I've got it holding a bar so I can cut a wedge off of it. The only difference between 2, my vice has the front left corner of the top slide jaw casting where the adjustment screws are to tighten up the gib. 1 of my brothers was trying to clamp down on something that was to big. He had the jaws spread past its limits & broke it. One of these days I want to have it repaired.
As usual another great video and restoration ! i happened to grow up working with my Dad restoring and fixing all our Automobiles ourselves the center of my Dads garage was always a Steel workbench with a Antique Vise on it and he taught me how to do just about everything from sharpening Woodworking tools to pressing in and out stubborn items utilizing the freeze and heat methods the Old Man had a passion for old Volvo’s and British cars before the invent of the internet and being easy to get specialty tools and such so easy we often had to improvise or fabricate those tools for our “weird “ cars but my Dad had the determination and the drive to do it himself so we used some factory tool sets and a combination of our metric and Imperial tool sets the old British cars and Motorcycles used their Whitworth system for nuts and bolts in the early 1950s many of the cars and bikes came with a canvas roll up with a variety of Spanners and a few other tools we could find some of those at swap meets and flea Markets but it was cost prohibitive to buy a full set of Whitworth in the United States and Volvo’s were always a little ahead of the times with 4 wheel disc brakes and Mcpherson Struts so the common Coil Spring Compressors that most auto part stores had didn’t work for what we worked on i saw my Dad compress similar coils in our vise one time and he tied them compressed with a high strength wire to install them into a foreign car we had boy could he improvise ! i guess i kind of carried the tradition into my Woodworking and working on boats and marine engines
Good job. Just a tip, when fixing a crack, drill a hole past the point where it ends. That will stop it from cracking again. Also, even though some rods alloe you to weld with no preheat, its always preferred.
Hi there. The vise is FPU, Bison- Bial company. They were a Polish company and sold some vises in the US. I have one of these as well and love it. The rear sliding g dovetail is so cool. Nice job
Great restoration, it’s always amazing when you dismantle rusty nuts and bolts that the threads are so shiny and no pitting in the parts after a wire wheel cleanup 👍
Lovely work! Had a beer watching the restoration :) Please take care with that wire brush disk and no gloves, scary stuff! Love the attention to detail on the masking side and the new gorgeous plates, making sure the anvil surface is nice and flat (thank you for not polishing it shiny!!!!! that just drives me nuts!) Love the finger oiling haha, so natural! Thank's for sharing, enjoyed watching!
I watch these vid's and I get so mad at these so called restorers. They don't have the time or intelligence to do the restoration correctly. though this wasn't one of the pricy vices when it was new but this restoration was done correctly. You took the time to find the cracks and problems, you took the time to clean it before you painted it and it looks great I would give a 150% for all of the work done. It was a pleasure watching. THANK'S
Well putting the angle grinder on its side like and using it as a bench grinder. That’s a good idea, learned something new. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and ideas with this video.
Since I got huge selection of grinders (10) that give me all kind of ideas. I have 3 of the dewalt 9” monster angle grinders I was going to build 2”x72” belt grinder with but now I can use one of them and 7” to make bench grinders out of. New ideas and inspiration so much fun to have. Also awesome job on the vice
I really love how you painted this vice! its better than any most restoration channels on youtube, who in my opinion put to much laquer and thick coats on. obviously this isn't a perfect restoration, because you didn't fill all the holes and dings but, thats no problem.
The make is "Fabryka Przyrządów i Uchwytów" today known as Bison Bial from Poland. I've recently done a restoration of a bigger, 120mm model. Really good vices.
I have a vise identical yours. I picked it up at about 45 years ago. If i remenber it had a label saying made in Poland. Wasn't very expensive. Mine is still in very good shape mounted to a bench. Seen a lot of hard use.
Nice work. I have the same exact vice at my garage. Must been in use for decades at my uncles workshop here in Finland. I salvaged it for my self, after my uncle died years a go. Mine has lost a few parts on it way..
Great job! Nice camera placement specially on the sand blaster :-). You obviously are more considerate than most in trying to make your viewers get the better view of the job being done. Many think the over-the-shoulder view showing lots of hairy arms blocking the work is the way to go (it's not) lol. Sub'd and watching previous vids.
I have worked on aircraft. for the last 40 or so years.. I've done quite a bit of home style machining.. and also done a bunch of firearms work... I think that the aggressive jaws that you seek as "original equipment" is not always desired.. I think you would do yourself.. and the customers of your finished overhauls, a favor.. to just leave the jaws in their worn and dull platform.. I myself.. make jaws from 6160 aluminum block.. and have good results.. you are a good mechanic.. excellent work.
Excellent advice, especially about the professional survey. A professional survey can also assess boat value, which can be used for insurance purposes (plus haggling). Greg
Couple of safety tips: 1. Depending on the age of that vise, the paint you scraped and blasted may have had lead in it, in which case you would have released that dust into your air. Better to either test for the presence of it or simply use a chemical stripper. 2. Never, ever wear gloves that close to the business-end of a tool, in this case your grinder. One misstep and the glove gets caught, sucking your hand into the tool. If heat is a problem for small parts like that, either bring the tool to the work which is held steady in a vise, or being the work to the tool with a pair of pliers or other such holder.
Excellent job! Love the fact that you didn't grind out all the imperfections and use body filler to make it "perfect". This is an old vice, it needed to keep its battle scars.
i know this vise, it was manufactured in Poland, Fabryka przyrządów i uchwytów(Instrument and handle factory ) in Białystok, also it is known BISON-BIAL , it's very good quality these days, Also good job on restoration ;)
наконец-то!!! Хоть кто-то использует обычные нормальные отвёртки. Кстати, используй для снятия ржавчины раствор лимонной кислоты в воде. 50 гр на литр.
A first rate refurbishment,every detail finished with importance in mind,finished article like factory finish,also a good vidio and we'll made,well worth a 5☆ rating
Are you happy that we're showing you this now? You never miss much with this educational video. You never want to catch things like this too late. Never fear, I'm telling myself all this. It all depends on what I want to specialize in. 😔
Great job on the restoration. One suggestion. You used oil in the spin slide parts. Then you used grease for the screw. You may want to use grease for the spin/ slide as well. It wears better, and the spin/slide action will be smoother. Just a suggestion.
Some of these people must end up with a vise collection.. I mean, how many bench vises can one person use?? Only 3 mounting ears and only 1 swivel lock. Nice job on the clean up before refinishing! What does the yellow rotating light tell you? Wow, you're going to overheat that tool feeding it at that speed!
Interesting my nickel loaded rods leave yellow finish but your rods (must be the same as you did not preheat) leave silver one. Nice to see others are welding vises as well!

What’s the oil and bottle you’re using? Looks handy!
New subscriber thanks for the upload man.
Thank you Very enjoyable video,
The vice was restored beautifully,
Excellent spray job 👍

Craig Monteforte Make an TH-cam channel worth watching. You have so much to tell, imagine what you could show!
Good job.
Just a tip, when fixing a crack, drill a hole past the point where it ends. That will stop it from cracking again.
Also, even though some rods alloe you to weld with no preheat, its always preferred.
Thank you, you wrote it instead of me.
Do you leave the hole or weld it up too?
@@daspicsman weld it up to
The best vice restore on the tube! No body fillers or JB weld or over polishing of parts. Great job of a real working tool.
the best restorer is my mechanic
Beautiful job! I'm so glad you didn't find it necessary to fill every imperfection with body filler. It looks great with a few dents!! :)
Hi there. The vise is FPU, Bison- Bial company. They were a Polish company and sold some vises in the US. I have one of these as well and love it. The rear sliding g dovetail is so cool. Nice job
Adjustable ways!
Fowler. Yes I love mine !
Nicely done
Looks great, works great and no fancy schmancy useless mirror finishes. A true restoration
A most enjoyable watch. Love the restoration and your work-bench.
Great restoration, it’s always amazing when you dismantle rusty nuts and bolts that the threads are so shiny and no pitting in the parts after a wire wheel cleanup 👍
Never seen a vice like this one. Very nice restoration!
I have that exact vice. Came from dear old Grandad. Your video inspired me to do the same restoring to mine. I loved that color of blue.
Very nice restoration of a practical little vise. Nice work squaring up the jaws and slides. Beautiful paint job!
That’s a really cool looking vice, bet it holds nice and solid with a nut that long. Great restoration 👍
Fantastic job. That vise looks brand spanking new. Definitely a vise I would be proud to have on my workbench. Well Done.
Haven't seen that vice before either, however the blue you chose looks lovely on it, came out fantastic!
It's just a FPU vise from Poland.
Lovely work! Had a beer watching the restoration :) Please take care with that wire brush disk and no gloves, scary stuff! Love the attention to detail on the masking side and the new gorgeous plates, making sure the anvil surface is nice and flat (thank you for not polishing it shiny!!!!! that just drives me nuts!) Love the finger oiling haha, so natural! Thank's for sharing, enjoyed watching!
A triangular file or hack saw can do wonders for those jaws. I didn’t like that color at first but it grew on me real quick, good choice.
Parabens, Campeão !! Bela Morsa, antiga e muito bonita !!!

Great work mate. That turned out fantastic. You’ve earned yourself another subscriber. 🇦🇺👍
I have 2 large vices. One is a swivel type. I LIKE that one more. I have used my shower stall as a paint booth,just a little water,first. Good job!
A very unique design. I like the way the screw is shielded from fallout and I like the adjustable way on the dynamic jaw slider. Nice color.
Old Polish vice of Fabryka Urządzeń i Uchwytów, Bison-Bial.
*Nice Craftsmanship my friend. thanks for sharing!* 🗜️
Sometimes the impossible is possible. This video proved that! Great restoration. Praise Jesus

Kia Ora & Good Morning from Unsworth Heights, North Shore, Auckland, New Zealand ...Another Great Video Bro.

Olaf Thank you so much for your reply!
@C17H25N The make excellent tooling for lathes, I have purchased many tool posts, and holders over the last two years.
@@bostedtap8399 p89
Cool looking vise and great color choice. Excellent job
Excellent work friend. I like the super aggressive jaws you put on it.
Good job, well done. No plastic body filler used and no extra polishing on a work tool.
Fine job, and that blue paint really stands out good choice of color.
Amazing work and a beautiful vise, great work fella 👍
I have a vise identical yours. I picked it up at about 45 years ago. If i remenber it had a label saying made in Poland. Wasn't very expensive. Mine is still in very good shape mounted to a bench. Seen a lot of hard use.
Nice restoration of an Awesome bench vise. I have the exact vise it is stamped “Made in Poland” on end of screw.
Very nicely done.... grats on returning a piece of mechanical history to running order!
I like your style kid... great resto. Keep up the good work.
Nice work. I have the same exact vice at my garage. Must been in use for decades at my uncles workshop here in Finland. I salvaged it for my self, after my uncle died years a go. Mine has lost a few parts on it way..
Hi - this brings me back to pops garage - definitely deserving of restoration. Well done and I subscribed!

Very nicely done and a great colour for the vise, it should give you many years of good service.
Bravo, Well done, It's a pleasure to watch this work! respect from the old BG.
Excellent advice, especially about the professional survey. A professional survey can also assess boat value, which can be used for insurance purposes (plus haggling). Greg
Great Job, have a nice day !!!. Brian UK .
Turned out to be a good looking vice I like how u keep the small dents I do the same.
Good analogy. I have done 2 so far.Good tool for fixing things.
That was a nice restoration! Great attention to detail!
That dual dove tail design is brilliant!
Your video is very interesting. I hope to see more Restoration videos from you.
Couple of safety tips:
1. Depending on the age of that vise, the paint you scraped and blasted may have had lead in it, in which case you would have released that dust into your air. Better to either test for the presence of it or simply use a chemical stripper.
2. Never, ever wear gloves that close to the business-end of a tool, in this case your grinder. One misstep and the glove gets caught, sucking your hand into the tool.

Acabei de me inscrever e amei sua restauração, digna de grandes restauradores, PERFECT!
Its good when you painting ,cover threads vith a screw 😉✌️🇨🇿 nice job 👍
Unusual vice that opens away from you.
A Gressel is like that! th-cam.com/video/U2jNeObHnZY/w-d-xo.html
Well done , I like the blue color it looks like a very nice vise you don't see many that use gibs , very cool. thanks
impressive restoration. I would definitely bring you anything I needed restored. end result was really awesome. great job. keep up great work!!!
Love the Hammersmith Blue paint, its the colour I am using for tool restoration
Nice tear down and clean up. Beautiful restoration.
Superb restoration and video quality!
Parts into the blasting box... I'm high frequency deaf now 🤯🤯🤯
and my dog jumped into the grave... Wow!
I wish the screws in my vice came out that easy, One had the head shear off and the other is so rusted that it has distroyed 3 impact driver bits.
I have the same problem and I am going to drill it and make new threads for larger screws.
If that happens try heating up the bolt to help break the rust, and then try extracting it with a left hand drill bit.
If the top of a screw is destroyed, you can cut a groove in it and then use a regular flat head screw driver and WD 40 to loosen it and unscrew it.
Very beautiful work and tool also very nice for working
Great job, man. I enjoyed watching the video. I wish you more progress
Excellent job! Love the fact that you didn't grind out all the imperfections and use body filler to make it "perfect". This is an old vice, it needed to keep its battle scars.
Cute little vise! Good job! 👍
Very unique rear opening vise good job.
Great job amazing restoration, loved it!

Great job. If you kept the old jaws you can file down the rest of the checkering and use them as a set of smooth jaws.
Great job👍 Thanks for sharing.
Super, j'ai le même en mauve, je vais pouvoir le refaire aussi 👍
VERY WELL DONE ! I dig the color as well! ...Newk from Kentucky
Muito bacana amigo
very nice friend 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I love that vice. Beautiful.
cant get enough of vices !! great job !
Old Polish vice
Greate job man 👌
Dam fine job.. handle was perfect 👌
A first rate refurbishment,every detail finished with importance in mind,finished article like factory finish,also a good vidio and we'll made,well worth a 5☆ rating
Nice work. Nice color. Love it.

Congratulations for this new project!! It's an amazing restoration!! Regards from the Basque Country!!
I like that tension adjustable gib on the dovetail track.
That was a nice job, nice to see someone use oil on bare metal. Keep up the good work.
Great job on the restoration. One suggestion. You used oil in the spin slide parts. Then you used grease for the screw. You may want to use grease for the spin/ slide as well. It wears better, and the spin/slide action will be smoother. Just a suggestion.
one word Primer ...cool video, good job
Well I thought I would never say this about a vise, being a woman, but it is... quite beautiful. Nice job!
Great restoration. I bet you can't buy any vice today that's half as good as these old vices
You gotta take a selfie with that vise.
Fantastic work!
You guys do great, let's create together, see you next time
Nice job. Congratulations from Brazil!
Some of these people must end up with a vise collection.. I mean, how many bench vises can one person use?? Only 3 mounting ears and only 1 swivel lock. Nice job on the clean up before refinishing!

Have the 6 inch FPU. Wish I had them all. Great vises.
This is so good. Am i the only one that has a weird thing for old vices? Theyre like cocaine but less illegal
Such a beautiful job
Great restoration 👍
great job. looks very nice.
Very nice work, nice vise.
Very good job 👍🏻 is professional 💯
