Amen, amen and AMEN! With one small caveat: I believe the chain is still a bit too loose. Thus, I would install a small lever, and spring loaded sprocket; to remove all looseness from the chain. This would make the twin screws feel awesome I believe. And the spring would keep the chain tightened at all temperatures. I would make the spring adjustable. So you could get just the right tightness. For what it's worth.
In a day or two I will be installing a Veritas twin-screw vise on my new bench. Watching your video is very helpful. I've read the instructions very carefully, but it really helps to see someone actually doing it. Thanks.
Very nice , however , the main reason for a non racking veritas double screw vice IS for the non racking feature , as you mentioned . THAT is why it almost always is used as a front vice . As a front vise it's right (or left) edge can be used , in conjunction with a 'dead man' dog board to secure larger pieces up against the long side of the work bench for edge planing etc (even a few dog holes in a bench leg or simply a clamp can do ) . (on the end as a tail vice you have greatly limited the value (not expense) of this vice in that as an end vice and the advantage of space between the screws is still there , but racking is not an issue used this way )
I guess you never heard about t-nuts. No inserts needed. LOL, "my OCD was happy". I was thinking almost the same thing. Instead of the plastic pins, you should use bicycle idler wheels from a derailleur. If the chain pitch is different, there are idlers that are smooth that have no pitch.
Hi my friend! I think I will give a full list some time in the future. Until then, this is the link for the drill guide (german amazon): www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0043VUCGO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I´m sure you can find something similar in the States. The one I have is rather cheap and I had to flatten the bottom before I could use it and the rails have some play, but it works okay.
It´s quite allright, the only thing missing really is a quick release so I don´t have to screw it all the way back and forth, but only the last few millimeters. This way it just takes some time if I want to clamp something thick...
Hallo Lukas! Quasi, war ein 38mm Bohrer, ist in der Anleitung so beschrieben. Aber hab den billigsten besorgt den ich finden konnte ;) Bin aus dem Spreewald in D. :)
Ich hoffe nicht, ich werde das beobachten und falls es nicht halten sollte kommt etwas massiveres rein. Das würde ich dann auch in einem Video festhalten. Bisher hält aber alles.
ok hört sich gut an, falls sie sich doch Verbiegen sollten würde ich zwischen der Kette eine Art Kettenspanner aus Hartholz anbringen (zwei Keile die aufeinander liegen damit du die "Kettenspannung" Einstellen kannst) worauf die Kette oben und unten läuft
Best explanation on installing twin screw that I’ve seen. Thank you
I have watched a lot of these twin screw installation videos and this is by far the best. Congratulations!

Very thorough instructions, thanks for posting

Ah that´s great! I must say I found the instructions rather funny and complicated...
Das erste Mal, daß diese Kettenklemmung richtig gezeigt wurde. Super!
Danke!
Sehr schön gezeigt.
Sieht richtig klasse aus,vorallem die Kettenabdeckung gefällt mir.
Danke! Ja, die gefällt mir auch richtig gut, konnte nicht erwarten die anzubauen!
Great job. Looks very strong and sturdy
Thanks!
Very nice presentation, excellent design and implementation. Informative. Useful.
Another great video! I was waiting for the next installment! Thank you!
Glad you liked it! Thank you for watching!
It's coming along great man.
Thanks bud!

9:22 Using your unfinished workbench to complete your workbench. Bravo. :)

7:40 alignment perfect done.
Question: Do you have links for the manufacturer or vendor of the tools you are using in your videos? I expecially like your corded drill guide.

Well, after a year what do you think about the vices operation?

My set screws come loose alot. What a pain ... not the best design
Do you mean the ones on the left spindle?
What is that attachment for your angle grinder that your using to carve the edges?
It´s a see-through grinding disc (40 grid), I am trying to find it on U.S. Amazon to send you a link but didn´t have any luck yet.
Pilot´s Workshop thank you so much! I'm from Canada, so I have a lot of woodworking stores to check out
Wurth sells them as "see-through grinding discs"
Nice! :D
Super Video! Hast du dir für das Projekt extra Forstnerbohrer in Zoll besorgt?
Gruß aus Wien. Von wo bist du eigentlich?

Hallo, sag wo hast du denn die kombinierten Kettenklemmung her? Amazon? Wie nennt man diese Dinger im Deutschen eigentlich? :-)
Hi :) Im Deutschen läuft das als Doppelspindelvorderzange xD Ich hab die von Dictum, die haben auch einen Amazon Store.
Danke für deine schnelle Antwort!!
⚙️🔩🔧⚒️ Very nice project 🛠️, great video 🎥 !! _ Congratulations! 👍 🇧🇷
Quello che cercavo. Grazie!
Prego! Thank you for watching!
Cool perfect ❗👍👍👍
Thanks :D
LIDL and ALDI are your friends i see...
All the laminates next to the dovetails have my OCD triggered..
I definitely would have turned that the wrong way the first time.
Wäre es nicht schlauer einfach die Kette ein Glied zu kürzen?
dann wäre sie bereits zu kurz gewesen, das spiel war relativ gering, auch wenn es wegen dem durchhängen sehr groß aussieht

Casio scientific calculators are the best scientific calculators.
Indeed, I only recommend Casio scientific calculators!
👍👍👍🇹🇷
:D
Raise your hand if you thought it was an airplane.. 🙋♂️
Phew... I´m glad we cleared that up :D
hmm?! ich habe da so meine Bedenken mit deinen "Kettenspannern" tun die sich beim Klemmen eines Werkstücks nicht verbiegen?
Ich hoffe nicht, ich werde das beobachten und falls es nicht halten sollte kommt etwas massiveres rein. Das würde ich dann auch in einem Video festhalten. Bisher hält aber alles.
ok hört sich gut an, falls sie sich doch Verbiegen sollten würde ich zwischen der Kette eine Art Kettenspanner aus Hartholz anbringen (zwei Keile die aufeinander liegen damit du die "Kettenspannung" Einstellen kannst) worauf die Kette oben und unten läuft
Man muss nur aufpassen, dass Kette + Spanner in die Abdeckung reinpassen
