Rex Krueger commenting on a Wood by Wright video talking about Clickspring. This is the zenith of TH-cam right here. Thank you all three for the countless inspiration and entertainment!
Yep. Think about a lot of different names in the leather working world they're often called a stitching pony and they come in all different designs and shapes as well.
Yup. Getting work to eye height has become more and more important. Lol, made some Christmas presents from hickory root because of all the different converging grain patterns. Wow! Getting it smooth was a chore, pretty though.
That's a great idea - thank you for introducing us to it ! I could do with one of these, as my bench is very low, being a repurposed bench from a mobile carpenter. How about keeping the 2-inch jaws as removable, and fitting onto the 30-inch beams by way of unglued dowels ? Then such readily interchangeable jaws could be made to have the inner faces at just the correct angle to always grip different sizes of work vertically ? I might try that ! Thanks for this video - a straightforward "must-have" project !
Have you completed the clock? I did a cursory search for clock and gears and could not find a video (but my search skills are not great). I have thought about doing a project like this, but am curious about the time required and the accuracy and run time of the clock. Keep up the good work!
Have you seen those "Spyder" brand auger bits, with the sky blue paint? If so, are they quality, or crap? They make a bunch of other stuff too. Their price point is typically on the high end, but their augers were pretty cheap last I saw.
They are very good bits. I know a lot of people who use them quite regularly. I'm not quite as much of a fan of them as they are not easy to resharpen at all but they do really good work.
It might be nice to have a dedicated hole in the workbench for this vise. (Last comment on this video, I swear. I might have a problem. That, or this video was so good, you gave me another vise to add to my long list of vices.)
I thought about doing something like that however I actually can adjust the height of the vise by opening it and closing the device it is going into. If I had a dedicated hole then it would always sink down to the exact same height and having that flexibility is very useful as well as the thickness of what I'm putting in the jaw may change over time and that would change the height in a static hole.
I haven't been keeping up on your videos for a while. This is the first time I've seen you using a Veritas handplane instead of one of your Stanleys...
I've had that plane for three or four years now. It's one of my all-time favorites. Their custom hand planes are incredibly expensive but worth every penny.
Where the hell did you get cork? They stopped selling cork here some thirty years ago. I've been told that the reason they don't harvest cork anymore is because it's a destructive process that kills the tree. (Not sustainable or environmentally friendly)
Bloody hell! At that price I'd rather stick with Clickspring's solution and use leather. Maybe that's why they don't sell it in South Africa anymore. I wonder if the Chinese vendors sell cork? Most of the cost there is Amazon's insane shipping. (They also refuse to use Postal Services and insist on dodgy fly-by-night couriers)
Man, I had fully intended to rip off Clickspring with this very idea! Damn, you James!
Lol I've been meaning to do it for a couple years now.

@@rojirrim7298 You're very kind. Im lucky to be mentioned in the same breath as these two craftsmen.
Great Built Idea! Now I know what to make my Dad in Law for Christmas. Thanks!
thank you James . i guess we all got vices to be proud of
The ending joke is really worth it! You nailed it, so to speak!
LOL thanks!
I was impressed with Clickspring build, and intend to make this the basis of a saw vice. Maybe swappable jaws with a dovetail.
that would be fun!
Oh yea I need to make me one of those. Thanks James.
That's a pretty great little tool.
got to love the simple ones!
Looks just like a 'Saddlers Clam'
Yep. Think about a lot of different names in the leather working world they're often called a stitching pony and they come in all different designs and shapes as well.
Cool idea... Thanks
well done Squire.
James your not alone, I to am a man with many vices. Bad jokes ever get old.
Yup. Getting work to eye height has become more and more important. Lol, made some Christmas presents from hickory root because of all the different converging grain patterns. Wow! Getting it smooth was a chore, pretty though.
Oh. That is not fun stuff to work with looks really cool but wow smoothing that out takes a good deal of work.
That there's a purty vise and them's some purty shoes too!
Another vice in your life... classic James. Lol. Great video James!!
Very cool
Nicely done James! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
It looks great!

thanks Phill. sounds like a fun time to me!
That's great James👍

No. That one's been on the show for a while. One of these days I'm have to finish it.

Where are you getting plans for gears, for your clock?
I am using this one. amzn.to/2EhmXt5

@@WoodByWrightHowTo I expected they would be. I have and use their sharpening jig and a couple other products. You're right, they are top notch.
And a stiching pony ? Sometimes the simplest things the best. (Thats what i tell my wife)
right on!
You’re Clickspringing with your file. I wonder if he Wright’s with a chisel?
Lol I like that one
"Is Is My Smallest Vise."
Is it supposed to say "This Is My Smallest Vise?"
Regardless, I love the simplicity of *This* vise.
That's part of the fun of wood by right. I like throwing in mixed up verbiage and spelling problems.
Where the hell did you get cork?

it is in most every office supply store. I get bundles of 1'X1' squares.

no i wont let that foot wear in my shop
LOL but they are so comfortable!
And it's cheap! LOL.
