Did the 1 wall workshop ever get made? The biggest thing holding me back right now is space. I only have my garage, and I can't justify tools like a planer, jointer, etc due to space.
Were these plans ever posted? I looked for the plans, starting with the section of the website called, "Plans > Shop Projects," but I couldn't find it.
I used that exact veneer screw several years ago to make the wagon vise when I made Norm's workbench. It's been great for everything I've thrown at it! Great build, James!
Looking forward to seeing the one wall bench video! If it's not until next year, that is a serious tease!
I’m excited for those 1 wall plans. Looks great and tidy!
I look forward to getting the plans for the wagon vise when they're available! Looks like a great addition to any shop!!!
Really looking forward to seeing plans for the one wall workbench something I’m very interested in building and don’t have a lot of space. Great video great idea hopefully be able to incorporate it
My back hurts looking at the Dewalt thickness plainer on the shelf
Why? It's shoulder height. Unless you're building tables all day long, you should be rough cutting boards to part-length before you plane them. That's not very heavy.
I’m guessing he was think of dragging it down to use it. Which is what I thought when I it saw it. I did not even think to use it in place. Clever placement.
Ideally, every machine would be at waist height with lots of room around it. But you make compromises in a small space.
The one time we move it is enough to make me think of my back. Mine is on a cart but before I built that I would leap frog it between a couple WorkMates so I never had to lift it off the ground again.
I was thinking the same thing about the DeWalt planer but using it in place is something I hadn’t thought of.
Brilliant, James! Thanks for all the tips! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I love my wagon vise, I got a lot of suggestions to do a regular end vise instead, but I'm glad I did the wagon. It holds the workpiece at the front of the bench without racking. I'd 100% do it again
That's the way I made my wagon vice. The only thing I did different was to remove the handle and replace it with a 4" hand wheel. Thanks for all of you teaching and ideas over the years.
I built a workbench with a vise like this one years ago. I love it. I has proven to be sturdy and very useful. I'm looking forward to seeing the plans for your entire workshop setup.
Great idea James. I am in the process of reworking my shop and I’m looking forward to the follow up video and the plans. I’ll definitely incorporate that.
Another great idea and build. I have a old end vise pulled from a HF bench, same basic screw. I'll make it work. As for the HF bench, with a bit of ( ok, more than a bit) re-enforcing, drawer re-situating, they aren't too terrible as an assembly table and should be marketed as such. I was given two of them, that's the right price to spend some time modifying into assembly tables and some storage.
My favorite video of yours. It solved an idea I had on my CNC table. Thanks so much.
Thank u James. I made my first bench out of red oak. I basically copied your exact model for the wagon vise n I added a cheap front vise. One day I’ll have a sjoberg or I’ll build my dream bench out of a better wood but for now I love my bench it gets the job done n the reason I love my bench is this wagon vise idea. Thank u
What a great way to add a tail vise to an existing work bench. I really enjoy your videos but this one was especially interesting. Keep up the good work. Thank you Dvid Adair
So true on the saw blade I use the thin kerf exclusively. Thanks for nudging me in their direction
Awesome James. Now you got me thinking of upgrading my bench finally.
thanks James for the idea. I added to my workbench and love it. Only modification I made was to dado side lengths and make two long floating tenons to secure. Works great.
This right here, is one of the best ideas ever! Stumpy and the crew absolutely rules😊🙌❤️
thank-you for sharing🤘
I'm really interested in this one wall workbench idea, I've moved my shop out of the yard and into the basement and space is....yeah. i like this vise and will almost definitely be making some form of this in the future
Thanks - I could probably think of a bazillion ways to customize your plan but this is a really great kick start! Very much looking forward to your published plan.
It might be neat to combine this design with a moxon vice. This would be great for folks who want to set it on top of their existing workbench for occasional hand tool wood working, or transport. Thank you for the inspiration James!
Just getting started on a small garage workshop. This will be perfect. Thanks
I have an old bench that includes this type o vise. I would recommend adding a negative chanfer in both "clamps" and an extra block with the complementary chanfer so when in compression, the wood would also be pushed down. Both pieces of each clamp could be assembled by a spring.
I'm not sure if its clear enough, but when using my vise I find it annoying when the board starts wobbling.
Love your videos btw, I've learned a lot from you. Best regards!
Hola! 🖐Thanks for this awesome video. Not only containing a practical and useful "tool" BUT included with options, ideas, and some history. Take care and have a good one, Adios! 👊
I made a wagon vise for my bench out of an old GM scissor jack, pulley for the handle & frame from metal framing laths. Not as good as Benchcraft but it works. The screw was reverse threaded so when I turn the pulley clockwise, the dog moves forward.
THAT was exactly the vise style I've been looking for! Thanks Stumpy, you nailed it! (and screwed it, and glued it, LOL)
Absolutely incredible build
I like the detailed with the vernier, great ideas.
I've seen wagon vises before but I didn't realize just how small and simple they could be. The super compact nature of this one means there's a ton of freedom in how you build a bench around it. I've been thinking about building a low split top saw bench lately and debating the best way to add some extra work holding in case I want to use it as a more general purpose portable workbench and this style of vise may very well work it's way into the final product.
Just what I have been looking for!!! Thanks for all of your good information.
This is amazing! Can't wait for the plans to be available... thank you for sharing! 🌷
Already have one, basically the same design, except instead of round dogs mine has rectangular pop up dogs. Bottom line it’s great, I love it. My bench Also has a 4 x 4” 8020 aluminum Track with both horizontal and vertical tracks for top an side mounting with a multitude of clamping options. So versatile.
Everytime you post a great idea y no my pocket is going ti feel it💯👌adding that to my bench thats 4 shore Mr. Nubs
Omg.... Just in time to incorporate something like this in my new work bench!!!! Fantastic idea I love this so much!
Very nicely done. I watch your videos all the time. Figured it was time I subscribe. Thanks for the wealth of information you provide.
Thanks I need this idea for a full size work bench I made years ago but didn’t include an end vise and I even have two unused veneer presses that have not even been out of the box.
I love this idea. I’ve been wanting to build a new bench and I want a vise. Now I know what I’ll do.
A nice addition to ad to a existing workbench.
Not so intrusive as traditional vices are.
I always appreciate a clean look workbenches with functionality built-in. 👍😍
That was a brilliant solution to a wagon vise! I don't have a need for one, but I wish I did!
I hope you still plan to do the one-wall workshop sometime. I am working off two 12 foot sections of wall in my garage with very little space coming out from them because I still have to share garage space with an actual car, and this looks like the ideal setup for me.
That's an excellent project! I love the idea of a wagon vise. It feels unobtrusive. I may do this one at some point.
This looks like the same vise Norm Abrams incorporated into his work bench. I built that work bench over 30 years ago and it still works extremely well.
what an elegant design.
That's Stumpy Nubs we like! Great idea!
Very excited for the fold down work bench video and plans!
Looking forward to those plans. I see some aspects I want to incorporate to my mitersaw station.
Thanks for the video, always enjoy watching!
This and the one-wall workbench or an adapted version of it might just be the perfect solution for my little work area. Very interested to see how this all unfolds.
Great idea and nice execution!!!
Excellent and easy bench vice I first saw this ( and made) in an 1980’s wood mag for a small work bench that had a recessed tool ‘trough’ on wallside. I used it for years then gave to my son
We are definitely going to hold you to that one wall workshop video....dare i hope series?
Very nice, I will definitely be trying this, I need a good wood working vise in my small shop.
Excellent
Thank you for this video-- very clear, very useful. I look forward to building my own one-wall shop next year so, good timing on that too. Thanks again
Great job and thanks for showing it
The workbench in Norm Abrams first book has a wagon vise. I built from those plans. Vise works great.
I used veneer press screws for my Moxon vice because I wanted the acme threads for speed of opening/closing and this was the cheapest, fastest way to go.
Was the one wall workshop video ever produced or is that this winter?
Thanks.
I'm working on plans for a new work bench and going to use your work bench idea, THANKS.
Thank you, Mr. Nubs!
answers all my questions and requests, looking forward to the plans
Fantastic video thank you for sharing this with us today from Henrico County Virginia
This would be a great addition to a work horse like the one Jay Bates built. Jay put a moxon style vice on one side. As long as the screws didn't interfere this would be a perfect addition on one end.
Great work bench addition.
I built something like that into my bench 11 years ago. It’s a work horse. I use it at least once a week.
Nice. I am limited on space and use a table. Im making a moxon vise with a small top 33x16 and I may incorporate this idea into it.
Thanks for sharing with us James, that's a really neat vise setup. Fred
Nice, thanks for showing how its done.
This is a great idea!!! Thanks.
Great idea! I already had dog holes in my bench and kreg makes a product that does something similar. It is made out of all plastic, but it gets the job done.
You've been reading my mind with that bench idea. A couple of years ago I built a split top roubo with a nice L shaped vice made out of re-cycled mahogany floorboards, which I had to laminate. Although I liked it, I moved house since and the roubo was a pita to move. I also realized very quickly what limited use a L vice is, especially as these days I prefer to flatten boards initially with a router sled. So I've decided to lose the L vice and convert the whole bench into a knockdown moravian bench but with a sliding peg the same as you. I realized that to convert my split tops all I have to do is re-saw the rear board lengthways, put a dado in one of the halves and glue it to the front of the existing front board because that's already got 14" cut out of it with a slot to accommodate the L-vice. I can then re-saw what's left of the rear board to make the rear tray for the moravian.
I love my wagon tail vice I built into my bench. Taylor Tools supplied the hardware.
A nice version of a traditional tail vise.
Great idea! I would use screw to secure everything and not glue, just in case something breaks
Very nice, I really like how you did the construction of your vise.
I made a similar wagon vise using spare parts from a broken bench vise. The parts I had were able to move the block without chainging the stick out on the end of the bench though it was a lot more complicated than your design.
what a cool ide! cant wait to see that OneWall next year.
I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.
Looks nice and very solid
That's a cracking little video I'm going try and find the wee screw thingy 🤣..
thanks
Great project, it's going on the do it soon pile!
Very nice James!
Great vice idea
That is an absurdly good price for that press clamp mechanism, compared to what you pay for the woodworking version of the exact same concept.
Crazy. An entire series on, "I found this thing that is essentially identical to an expensive woodworking version, but is normally used by X, for X.." would be cool, and extremely helpful for those of us on a budget. I bet there is a long list of nearly identical hardware or tools that are used in other industries, and sold at a far cheaper price.
nice stumpy good idea
Did you ever end up putting up plans for that 1-wall workshop? Would love to set something like that up in my workshop!
Looks like a fun build
I would buy the plans for the one wall workshop! I definitely need this for my workshop.
Love your work 👍
As always I may comment later but give us you my boy blue lol n I'd love o really high end wagon vise!!! The only thing my bench missing
I need an SN one-wall workshop!!
Very nice and practical
@Stumpy Nubs thank you for this video. I am planning on building a new bench and was wondering if I could use a Yost leg vise screw I had and do it something similar to what you did. Love the videos and thank you for the content
Thanks great precurser to the upcoming build video. I looked at the hardware links. I am going to with the one from Taylor Toolworks. I have the maching moxon vice. Thanks for always sharing the hardware links.
I’m going use it to make a graphite shaft puller for my club repair business.
G R E A T I D E A.....and thank you...rr Normandy, France
blades!!! how much!!!! dint pay that for my table saw lol, that's probably why i get rubbish cuts sometimes.
