Hoo ray NO James Bondo. Very good workmanship. And nice shop setup. The funny part getting the light to get the job done. Now u have a really good shop vise.
This may be the finest restoration I've seen here on YT. The mirror polish on the machine parts is incredible. You've done a man's job here, sir. Liked and subscribed.
Incredible job mate. The work you performed is worthy of a well seasoned restorer with years of experience. I loved the polish, the colour and attention to detail and subscribed as well. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such a thoughtful comment, it means more to me than you know. Thank you for watching and supporting the channel.
I love the attention to detail in your videos. Good quality restoration! I have subscribed. Attention to anyone associated with Lowes if you haven't reached out to the owner of this site you should. Great showcase for your Kobalt line of tools!
Competitive with large view vise restoration video. Good camera work. Could be improved but competent. Nice mirror polish. You use tools most of us 'play at home' types own.
Great craftsmanship! Now I am gonna draw some hate. IMHO, that was a lot of effort into a vice that I don't think deserved it. That spring in the movable jaw is a clue the vice overall is sus. There are a bushel of old vintage vices to be had. Just hit your local flea markets, swap meets and garage sales. You can find tons of old Wilton, Prentice, and Reed vices for sale at them. Now that you have honed your skills on this one, you can make one of those old warhorses absolutely sparkle. Please don't get me wrong, not throwing shade on what you did or what you accomplished. Just the focus of all that effort. Anyways, great video, look forward to seeing more.
Thank you for the advice. I didn't know much about this vise however I did realize that the craftsmanship was not the best once I started this project. I agree with you that I probably should have put the effort into restoring a higher quality tool. I will keep my eyes open for one of the ones you mentioned. Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@rusticrestoration5278 My recommendation is snoop around for an old Wilton Bullet... a 4 or 5 inch is a great size and won't break your back. (They come with a lot of gravity installed.) I grew up in a shop where we had 7 or 8 of them that my grandfather had bought as surplus during after the war. They were abused in every way you can imagine and were still trucking 50 years later. There are a few 'gotchas' on disassembling them, but if you watch a video or 2, you will be good to go. Again, fantastic workmanship.
Those look like nice vises. I'm trying to finish up a new video this weekend but I will check some flea markets in my area. I appreciate your advice, thank you.
Nice mirror finish 👍 love the new colour.
Great job. Liked and Subscribed.
