Hey Andy. what are the chances of getting an updated build video with all the changes and additions that you have come out with over the last several years? Would be nice to have a one stop shop where we could reference a single video instead of multiple videos that we have to go through now for all the info we need to put one of these together with all the latest bells and whistles.
Without exception, about the most brilliant (designing) Maker online; thanks for showing how to assemble your invention. Don't have one on order but sure enjoyed the video. Nicely done.
Andy, I knew I wanted one of your vices before I saw this assembly vid, but MAN Do I WANT ONE NOW! Your design is awesome, your choices are simply simple AND appropriate. I'm just out of ways to express appreciation for a properly designed item.. Awesome. Now I just need to build a series of benches to carry all of your vices ... Oh, I see you have a solution for that problem too! Thanks!!
Man, I wish I could have a bench that would fit one of these vises. They look sweet! Re: the 5/16-18 tap. Just make one from a bolt; works great for tapping wood. Your vise is genius! Best I have seen anywhere. I hope you got a patent so you can license it to a company and make money in the long run. It would be worth it for sure. It’s remarkable that you came up with such an impressive design.
I believe it is one of the best inventions I have seen since viewing TH-cam DIY videos. A tip of the hat to Andrew Klein. He is truly a genius. Incredible. I am very close to buying the "24" Twin Turbo Vise. The only problem is it may not fit on my 8' X 30" X 3" workbench. If I can upgrade my workbench practically; I am going to buy Andrew's vise. If I can't upgrade it, I will be very sad.
As a engineer myself, this TWIN TURBO VISE design is a great idea and product. I am in the process of designing a new workbench cell and I am going to design in "this" vice. Then save the $$ to purchase it from your website. I have been trying to figure out what vise style that I wanted to integrate, this will fit the bill. I like cosmetic appeal that displays the mechanical aspect. This will work with all the other features of the workbench cell I plan to produce. This is my first time viewing your channel, so I am off to watch your other videos to see what else I may be able to deploy into my design. I will be revealing my design in near future, from the actual design process to final build as my first series. Thank you and I look forward to using your vice.

Man, this brilliant, especially the handle serving as a tool for installation. Small change so we don't have to scrounge around for certain size tubes to push that retaining ring on. Mine is coming in today thanks to UPS's notification so I know what I'm doing this weekend. :)
Sweet, hope you love it. yeah, the handle installation was kinda last minute, I had tried pushing on a smaller version of this type of retaining ring and it went on with hand pressure just fine, so I was thinking that was all the customers would need to do. They I tried to get the actual one on the vise and it was impossible, so I had to scramble for a solution that wouldn't break the bank.
great assembly vid. You put Ikea to shame!!! I feel like this assembly is the most highly anticipated installation in my shop ever. I may rotate the entire center of my shop 180 degrees so this gets more visibility when guest walk in! ;-)
@@AndrewKleinWW I am almost finished building my new work bench to complement my almost assembled Twin Turbo Vise. I'm using two 36" solid core doors for the top. I did all the underside work from above, will flip it over onto the workbench base tomorrow. It's going to be awesome.
@@AndrewKleinWW quick question, is there a specific reason for the bottom to be open or can it be closed off? I'm thinking about laminating some boards, making the the surface area a bit bigger and using my cnc to pocket out the recess for the vise, ofcourse considering additional space for wood movement
Absolutely awesome!! Concept is good, design is robust, video is well done. The only possible complaint might be that the sawblade in the final shot is desperate need of cleaning and possibly sharpening.... but I'm not judging. good job man.
And for those of us living with METRICS, maybe selling a complete optional mounting kit including forstner, bits, threading bits, even a ruler, ..., should be a good idea. Thanks for all your work.
Just a suggestion: at 12:30 it may seem you're suggesting to drill with 11/32 prior to tap. My understanding is that you use it only for positioning, but if people don´t go back to the previous drill/tap operation they may drill with 11/32 rather tan 7/32.
Hey Andrew! I don't suppose you have a 3D model of the jaw piece that we need to create? Throwing a piece of wood in the CNC to make this would be nice. I can work it out myself if not, but if you had it ready-made that would save some measuring work.
So awesome!!! Question in regards to the back plate for the vise. You prepped it wit a wire cup wheel, would it harm the mechanical aspects if that back plate was painted? Thought it might be neat to “Hot Rod” the vise a little and personalize it.
@@AndrewKleinWW I am probably going to do some sort of cold bluing, or some sort of etching and then a clear coat! Will try to find a good combination to bring contrast between the gears, the bushing, and the back plate
Hi, Beautiful vise that I want to order but... Is it possible to have the overall dimensions of the 24" turbo vise back plate (height, width) to be sure that it fits my workbench before ordering it?
I watched the video from KRT as well and he mentioned the vice came with a steel front plate. I realize that was like the "beta" version if you will. I'm curious if the newer models come with the acrylic front plate? If not I could see that being a popular add on in your store. Either way I'm really looking forward to ordering one of these!
Yes, I started out thinking the front plate would be steel but literally everyone wanted an acrylic front plant to see those gears. So the vise comes with an acrylic front plate.
@03:00 So I _finally_ started assembling mine ( yea... Really fuckin' late to the party 😅 ) and the first problem I came across is me running Metric with little to no access to Imperial specced hardware like drills, taps and HEX Bits - At least not locally sourced one and twice not unusual ones that do not follow into the G¼ or G⅛ category commonly found in PC Water Cooling Systems... Aaaanyway... While I couldn't fit any of my Metric HEX Bits into the provided Screws ( either to small or too large ) I just so happen to find that Torx Bits would actually work just fine! As for the Drills and Taps I found that using a 7mm Ø Drill paired with an M8 Tap would work just fine with the provided screws ( that is in Wood, probably not in Metal ).
Is there any rust preventative on the steel parts? The gears look like they are raw steel. What anti-rust would you recommend? Bluing and wax? Bluing and Poly? Just Poly?Bluing and Oil?
@andy Klein. The sale on the MLCS Taps (aka Klein Taps) just got extended through the 28th of February. Do you have any idea how long your discount code is valid for? I blew all my extra spending funds for the month on Christmas gifts and such. I would like to get the complete set of taps, but in February when I can afford them again!
Are the gears and other steel pars costed on anyway for rust prevention? If no, what would you recommend? I can't imagine you want poly or a bunch of oil in there on a wood vise.
Andrew - Loving the Vise! I had a retaining ring pop off the left screw last weekend. Any Ideas where I might find a replacement? And some thoughts around why it pops off?
Political-ish comment ... THIS is what I want capitalism to be ... fair and free trade. Sorry ... just a perfect example of what is right/correct with free and fair trade. A fantastic vice free from marketing speak/BS/vested muck, with all the manufacturing efficiencies and deficiencies there for reference (for who care). $0.02, thanks Andrew.
Hi Andrew, my 14" vise also came with two brass flat washers, similar to the black steel washers used behind the spring clips on the screws. I did not see those used in the video. Are they extras? Thanks! Can't wait to get this vise un use1
I noticed at the end that the acrylic plate stands proud of the wood face would it affect the functionality of the vice if I made the front half thicker by the thickness of the acrylic so everything sat flush
I may not be understanding the instructions. For the two wood pieces, they say the width of the board for a 24 inch vise should be the width of the the bench plus 5 and 1/4 inches. I have a 3 inch workbench top. That would be 8 and 1/4 inches. The steel plate is approximately 9 inches wide. The wood jaw needs to be wider than the steel plate. How wide should it be for a 24 inch vise with a 3 inch workbench top?
For a 3” top you are going to need to add a pice of wood to the bottom to mount the buy and bushing. otherwise the top of the vise body will be over the top of the bench. So if you add a 1 1/2” piece of wood then the jaw width would be 3+1 1/2”+5 1/4=9 3/4”. If you join the Inkleind Facebook group you can see some examples of how people have done this.
@@AndrewKleinWW Andy - I didn't see anything and I checked my spam too. I'm heading out for a week, hopefully we can pick this up when I get back on the 3rd.
Andrew Klein thanks for the reply. I initially installed with the 2” button caps, but found the long ones before I was done. I didnt know if you were making any changes to the instructional video at some point in the future
Just started putting my 20” vise together. The instructions on this video (at 0:40) are quite misleading. I have a 2 1/4” thick top on the bench so I bought maple that was 7” thick to make the sliding jaw, cut it down to just over 6 3/4” and then got the plate out of the box and the maple was way too short. The vise plate itself is 7 1/2” tall so the instructions should show the wood needs to be a minimum of 8” wide to cover the dimension of the vise plate. Also, the 7 1/2” height is not on the diagram on the website. Painful to waste $60 worth of maple due to following this video.
What's the story with overseas shipping? I tried to look on your website but it wants me to checkout via PayPal before I can get to the shipping options. PS. I'm in Australia
First off, even with the PayPal checkout it should give you option to use a credit card, was that not the case? And shipping cost should calculate before you need to pay (I do ship internationally and have sent several packages to Australia
I've covered it before but you are right I should have gone over it again just to get all the instructions in one place, here is the previous cork rubber glue operation: th-cam.com/video/Yq23Myq4rGo/w-d-xo.html
Hi Andrew I purchased a 14 inch vise kit last August and putting it together now. There is no five spoke gear - but three smaller four spoke gears. I don’t know how to contact you. Please help resolve this.
" you can still pre order them" I would think one might 'pre' order anything anywhere. As anything prior to actually placing an order is got to be the definition of 'pre-ordering,' no? What is this penchant for adding the superfluous prefix 'pre'?

Thanks for considering the vise. That bench seems big enough, is it an interference between the screws and the legs?

Would using 1.5” stock be oaky instead of 1 1/8”?
You would need to recess the front plate since the back of the front plate to the back of the back plate is 1 1/8". but if you did that it would work
How did you attach the cork material and do you have a video of that.

bench is 4.2" thick. jaw is 9.45" tall. mounted on bottom, the jaw is approx. 1/4" higher than bench surface. 24" vise What gives?
The actual body of the vise isn’t above the bench top, right? Can you plane the jaw top flush with the bench?
" you can still pre order them"
I would think one might 'pre' order anything anywhere. As anything prior to actually placing an order is got to be the definition of 'pre-ordering,' no?
What is this penchant for adding the superfluous prefix 'pre'?
People are no longer drilling pilot holes (they guide the screw; they prevent splitting), but claim to have 'pre-drilled' the holes instead.
sure is purty... :-)
