- Part two of my re-creation of the vise for my Rhodes Metal Shaper. In this video I finish up the vise by making the acme screw for the vise, doing some internal threading, and making and hardening the vise jaws.
Part one of the build is here: • Rhodes Shaper Vise Re-...

Nice build Jeremy! Thank you for sharing! Best, Job
12:23 best lathe trick ever!
A beautifully made tool, sir!!
Very good maching and explanation.
The vice turned out great. Cheers Tony
I like it when you reclaim old material. Thanks for sharing my friend!
You scared me quenching in that glass Mason jar. I thought the sudden heat differential might break it. Nice job on the vice!
Having only recently discovered your channel and watching some of the other videos I now understand how you acquire scrap. Love you channel and your use of the scrap. Keep the videos coming.
Came out really nice 👌
Glad you also showed the fuck up on the acme thread
I am a strait up bacl yard, youtube taught machinist. I do it out of necessity in my vintage motorcycles shop.
I watch a ton of machinists on youtube. I really like your videos. Some of the others do it too oerfect. And i mean they dont show theor mistakes or how the adapt to work holding issues and such. Its, to me, more real life machining. It doest all go perfect or made perfect!! And the scrap stock you make into amazing tool is fantastic!
Great work.
Great job!! That is fine craftmanship. Great narration and videography! Like the use of the "scrap" steel. Thanks for sharing, was enjoyable.
Great work, like you I love nothing more than turning a hunk of junk into a gem! Keep up the good work!
Glad to see a fork stuck in this project! Great stuff as usual!
Great video! I only found your channel a few weeks ago but have been going through all of your videos. Really great work turning those rusty pieces of metal into useable parts!
Turning dust to gold. Inspiring work.
Every episode …. the tools and parts get better and better. I too am learning so much along the way. Thank you. I sure hope your finding this fun to produce and share, because we are absolutely loving the product. If you ever get to the point you would like to add a Patreon type component to this channel, I’ll certainly be joining. Again, thank you 🙏
"Hardness Guesstimator Files". I should get me some of those. Great Video man.
Don't usually see a hacksaw and a milling machine in the same frame! :)
Its lovely and enjoying to see how you turn rusty pieces of iron from the bottom of river to the nice mechanisms. Also joke with screw-multiplication was fun. Great channel!
Most any machinist worth his salt can take a piece of good stock and turn it into something useful. It takes a real man to take a hunk of 30+ year rusted axle into an acme threaded vise screw.
A perfect example of how you can get some super nasty rusted chunk of steel for dirt cheap(probably scrap steel pricing if not outright for free) and for just a little bit of extra effort end up with decent material for your project.
Automotive wrecking yards are a great source along with scrap yards.
I’ve been watching machining vids for about two years now and I thought that I had gotten my head around the stuff that one can do with a lathe. Quinn had shown how to do offset stuff in the lathe - quite cool, and of course there’s crankshafts and all that. But when you made your internal threading tool that way…. it blew my tiny mind 😂
Great little vice, thanks for the nice video!
I've been enjoying your videos. Very well done. Just the right amount of making the parts without having to watch endless turning or milling. Excellent narration without going on and on. Voice and sound quality is great. Thanks. Keep making project videos.
That was great, love the rusty stuff. You are good at it👍 Much enjoyed 🍺
Time lapse footage is always appreciated, would've liked to have seen the work on that axle sped up. Also something I really like seeing is the chamfer put on a part it's like a finish line declaring it ready.
Recently discovered your channel and enjoying it very much .
Really like the using scrap to make stuff .
Good job 👍👍👍👍👍
Outstanding! Thanks for the videos. That's a wonderful, tidy execution! Make me proud to have been involved in a small way. On your recommendation, I'm going to add a general assembly view to the plans.
Excellent work 👍👍👍 . Thank you for sharing. Be safe
You're right. I do like it when you use the forsaken metal dredged from unknown days long gone. It's neat!
a wonderful transformation.
Well done!
For better hardening results you have to use a bigger oil can
And old, used engine oil for some extra carbon? Save the real dirty stuff from the lawn mower.
Man, that was an excellent job. TOP.
Turning scrap into beautiful functional parts ! - brilliant! cant wait to see whats next up 🙂
Excellent result, loved watching the build. Thanks for sharing.
Just rewatched your grinder vise for toolfest vid, and now i see that while i was doing that, you uploaded this for another vise... Just lovely!
All the best Jezza!
p.s. In regards to holding the cylinder erect.... khm... I believe it would be primarily used for squaring round stock, and by squaring, i mean turning it into a rectangular shape rather than getting a ``cylinder square`` but for that too, as you could in theory square up the sides to the faces of a cylinder and use it for precision purposes....
Your work is great I am learning a lot
Nicely done
as usual you did a great job on this. really love seeing you turn mystery metal into such good pieces
Great video! I'm learning my Altlas 7B shaper. The shaper is such a sweet machine. Keep 'em coming....
Good work!
Man that's a great vise, excellent job and great video, keep'um coming..
good job jeremy
Very interesting build and very well made video.
Turning some scrap in to useful parts is the way to go :)
Nice work!
Nicely done!
Love your channel. Was recommended by RotarySMP and the contrast with your channel is amazing. Its awesome how you take rusty pitted old POS chunks of metal and make beautiful fully functional parts and other things out of them. Keep up the great work!
Well done!
Cool you've got the cool cast and some ssab too that's funny
Your scraptonium looks like it's part of Neptune's septer 😁
Fantastic! Thanks for making this inspiring content :)
Very clever... way to avoid the T-nuts!!
Just so happens I’ve got what looks like a rusty old shaper vise, that won’t work like a vise on my shaper. It’s made to bolt through the table like yours, but my shaper has a universal table, which doesn’t allow for that... It needs a base that can bolt to the T-slots. Now making that doesn’t seem so crazy, or it at least seems doable!
I had good results making an acme threading tool by grinding the tooth out of a small piece of Hss then silver soldered (brazed) it 90 degrees onto an old boring bar. Yes it was small and fiddley but worked great....now that I'm thinking about it I can't be sure that I didn't grind it after it was brazed on?? I think the hss was a small broken drill bit or end mill. It was all out of the bean can of scrap anyways. Stayed sharp and got the job done 👍😉
would be interesting to see someone make a dynamic jaw vice from scrap/scratch
OUTSTANDINGH
So was this sculptured out of an enormous hunk of Cast Iron then?
It looked like cast when you pulling it out of the dust pile on the floor and my eyes lit up like light bulbs. I was hoping secretly that you would reveal your source as something generic and accessible to me because I’ve been hunting for a big chuck to make a top slide for a 13” lathe. The original was missing when I cluelessly purchased the machine for way too much. But then I’ve been slaving away making a workbench full of parts to bring it back to life and now I’m hung up on a huge piece of Iron needed for the top slide, other than that all that’s left is the 7” hand wheel for the tail stock and the vernier dial for the tailstock quill.. I’m so close I can taste it, yet still so far away! Hahahaha.
Your vice build was a true pleasure to watch and I think you are an extremely talented guy. Thanks for sharing your projects. You win some and you lose some and I have a great deal of respect for a guy like you who is not embarrassed to show the losses along with the wins.
You’re in luck, it’s just a hunk of mild steel from the local steel supplier’s off-cut pile.
Tis POG
You must be well proud of that project.
I never did find that spell in the magic book. I'll have to read it again.
Nice work. You might be better off with a larger volume of oil. The heat-treat recipe usually specifies the temperature of the quenchant. For O-1, you want about 120 oF. From what I read, you can control the speed of cooling by heating up the medium. Water is more susceptible to this effect, I think, than oil. The closer you are to boiling temperature, the less heat can be moved into the water quickly. As soon as the water boils, vapor pockets appear on the surface and slow down heat transfer. Oil is a slower quench but I suspect that you can get the same effects. TL;DR The small oil bath may have caused the parts to not harden.
What a great capacity, three quarters of a metre.
Nice job on this, end result looks awesome and (probably more important!) looks like it works great. Really enjoyed watching the process and the problem solving as you go.
And I'm also a big fan of the crust-old-whatever-to-finished-part thing 😀 Watching you descaling again, do you ever try acid soaks? I'm thinking vinegar (+ salt) or citric acid specifically more than dilute hydrochloric or sulphuric. Even if you don't use them to get everything off a shorter soak will undermine and weaken rust, making it much easier to remove even using processes that don't have as much oomph as a needle descaler. So the hands-off time reduces the hands-on time so I think they can be a valuable addition to a workflow.
I restore a lot of old woodworking and light-engineering tools and my vinegar + salt baths last a long, long time: a year, easy. So they're _extremely_ cheap in the long run if you can get bulk vinegar. Not to take anything away from Evaporust but a long soak in tired old vinegar seems to weaken rust better than nearly exhausted Evaporust does.
Always wondered what you do with all the filings and shaved metal pieces. I imagine you can’t just smelt it down to a new block since there are so many different compounds. Do you grab it all with magnets and dispose of it? Smelt it and use it for things that can handle Heinz 57 mix of metals? Or try to sort it as you go into types of metal?
Steel shavings usually get thrown in the steel dumpster at the local transfer station, non-ferrous swarf (aluminum, brass, etc) usually just goes in the trash. I don’t generate enough to make recycling it worthwhile.
Good video
🇬🇧😐
xD hahahahahahah Fasteneering multiplicatum!! That made me laugh out loud! hahahahaha I love it!
The question I had, did your nut clear, on the back of the vice so to allow rotation?
Yes.
The lack of hardness could have been because your amount quench fluid seems small vs the size of parts you were hardening?
nice.. 👍
Need a lot more oil to harden somthing that big. Those jaws were way to much heat for the volume of oil to cool fast enough to get to full hardness
Great job. Was that a Sears power hacksaw? If so how well does it work for you? Asking as I just picked up one. It needs a little work, but it is functional.
It is. Mine needs some work too. It’s slow but works well enough. I find that some cutting oil on the blade is crucial to keep it happy.
@@JeremyMakesThings Good to know about the want of cutting oil. As to speed, I am just having some fun working with some old machines so it doesn't have to be fast. Thanks for the information.
4140 is a water quenching steel that would explain why the hrc is alittle low
Очень хорошая идея
you're awesome
Oi, you!
Yes, im talking to you.
Who do you think you are, Harry Potters' big brother. Jeremy Potter,💥
You wizard. 🧙♂️ Great job 👍🏴🇬🇧⚒️🇺🇦🇮🇱
I think you should get together with "You Suck at Cooking" and do a collaboration video. I get his vibes when watching your videos. And that's a complement.
Fastneri multiplacatum morphed into watcherdium subcribiosa. 😂
Jeremy, on one of your videos you talked about drilling a square hole. Check out a channel called Mehamozg. It is Russian with English captioning. He actually shows how to make a three flute drill ( backwards) and a square guide and drills a square-is hole.
H&W machine repair will regrind your mill spindle if its messed up
Tom Lipton has a category of work he calls "dog-meat" machining. That's when you take good and carefully-identified stock and turn it into a rough but usable item. You come from other direction: you take what is actually dog-shit metal of totally-unknowable type and turn it into a pretty-nice item. It seems it _is_ possible to polish turds.
A needle gun works best when the needles dance as they rebound from the job….Pushing it like a ploughed a chisel doesn’t work. I know…………I’ve got the blisters to prove my point.

So, if it fails and some know it all starts about everything wrong with it, you can say "Didn't you watch the conclusion of the build video? It was forked from the get go!"? Or is that, And there's your dinner! ?
Your just video did you you mean 5 thousandths or 5 tenths, cause it's but making sense
Let me guess. You've either been watching Harry Potter or TOT is giving lessons.
You work your self into a corner too much. You need to think the problem thru before making chips.
"HARDNABILITY"... 😂🤣😂ONLY AN AMERICAN COULD MAKE THAT UP !!!
Here’s a link from the University of Cambridge discussing “Hardenability.” So not and American source, and not made up. www.doitpoms.ac.uk/tlplib/jominy/hardenability.php
Nice work! Enjoyed watching, thanks.
