12:12 If anyone is wondering - the washer he used is more accurately called a "Concave and convex washer set" AKA "Spherical Conical Washer set". He didn't state the gauge, but you would get a gauge similar to the bolt shaft.
Thumbs up for using affordable hardware and not some expensive kit.
Jay,
A tip for reducing the "squeal" and heat build up when drilling is to wipe a light coat of paste wax on the bit. This also has the benefit of keeping your bit sharper longer. This trick is especially helpful when using bits like Forstners and augers as they have such a large contact surface and are therefore more prone to binding and heat build up.
I know an old video but I have watched several on the moxon vice as my hardware is to be delivered today. The plans I have seen show the inletted nut to the inside of the back jaw. Basically turn the rear jaw 180 deg. Then the second nut on the back side. This way the threaded rod is clamped in the rear jaw and not just relying on friction to hold it in place. Good video. Keep up the good work.
I've seen you work for a few years now,.... and recently you've taken on a more relaxed and self-confident aire in your presentation. I used to think that you talked too much and that conversation was dry,.... but now,... Your humor and comfort level are shining thru, and I'm happy for you! Did something in your life come about to lift your spirits? Fall into some big money? A beautiful new wife? Tons of sponsors and recognition? All??
.
Whatever it is, you're far more pleasant to watch lately,... and I wish you the best in 2022 and beyond! Later!
Thanks for the idea. I just built a quick and dirty version out of scrap 2x4s and bolts I had lying around. It worked really well to hold 3/4 stock while I routed 16 mortises for a desk I'm slowly working on. One day I'll get my own place and build proper equipment, but for now everything is utilitarian, cheap, and disposable for me.
Amazing work Jay! Came out great! Someone in the comments suggested putting a mark to line up the circle insert. Duh, I wish I'd thought of that! Every template going forward will have a mark for lining those up.
dont know if you guys gives a damn but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can stream all the latest series on InstaFlixxer. Been binge watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown =)
@Gustavo Santana Yea, I've been watching on InstaFlixxer for since november myself :D
Just want to say I've been a follower for over 3 years and no matter what I always learn something from your videos and I'm an experienced woodworker
Love seeing the photo of your "supervisor-in-training". Family is everything!
Jay the OG youtuber. A nice traditional old fashioned Jay style video.
So good to hear you say "lower the bit" and NOT "lower down the bit." Great job on your videos.
Great build video , Jay! When you're using a cut off wheel on your grinder you should never cut with the tip of the grinder. You're setting yourself up for a really nasty kick back.
Reading the comments...and wow, you really can't make some people happy can you?
Let me say I love seeing you back to making videos and having fun in the new shop. That's what I've always enjoyed about you, along with all the tips tricks and great project ideas. Long live Mortal Kombat...lol! Keep up the good work, and nice pic in the background. Can't believe how big your girl's gotten. Bet you and the wife are enjoying watching her growup.
Something I learned at work recently. If you are cutting a threaded rod, you can also just bring down the end at a 45 degree angle and essentially remove those first 1-2 threads (takes seconds) and then easily thread your nut on the end. Worked like a charm for about 10 threaded rods I needed to trim to length.
Great equipment (still drooling over that planer/jointer) great explanation and no out of chronological order production bs! Subbed, nice channel.
OMG the sound of that dry Forstner bit! I always have a small bit of wax in my pocket for the hand planes and it works great on Forstner bits as well! Down side is that the wife has to be sure to check my pockets when doing the wash. I've also been known to use Bostic Glidecote or BladeCote. Expensive stuff but works fantastic.
Another great video man.
Love the touch of the picture of you and your daughter in the background.
The moxon I have and use is based off of your pipe clamp vise you made a while ago. If I ever make a 2nd one this has some nice hardware ideas. Thanks.
I'll be honest, it's been a while since I watched one of your videos (been following you for years), but this one hit the spot. Not over the top, nice camera shots and lighting and atmosphere. Love seeing the photo of your and your daughter in the shop.
Of course, if you want to clamp a narrow strip horizontally, the jaws will rack vertically... unless you have bottom jack-screws or a double wedge or similar to take up the slack / rack at the bottom.... 🤔

gloomy rain? :O, no no no, and no! I live on the Wet Coast of Vancouver Island, it rains here too, from Oct 31 to June 11. BUT! I love the sound of rain. And the smell. Ah, nothing better than rain in the Winter. In the Winter! And besides, don't you live on the river? That must be nice in the rain too. That is some Jointer/Planer you got there. Enjoy your weather!
Great video but please consider wearing a face shield AND safety glasses when using the grinder. Wheels can shatter and the pieces become high speed projectiles.
Micah Conrad I have a scar on my wrist to prove that, disc exploded striking my wrist and ending me up with a heavy bleeding wound on a Christmas Eve many years ago.
The handled nuts are cost effective, but the round wheel type nuts have a flywheel effect and adjust considerably faster. Might be worth the extra cost to install them. Great video Jay!
Plus they are balanced and will stay where you put them.
Just found your channel Jay and I have to say the additional Mortal Combat/transformer sound FX and cameo pop up made me an instant subscriber. It was refreshing to see your process "on the fly" as you work and helps is so many ways words can not describe in a short comment. Simply , Thank. YOU!
Cute picture of your daughter. Nice explanation of the moxon vice.
Lights and white balance for your vids is perfect now. Love your vids bro.
Fine Woodworking had a recent tip for making these using F style clamps!
You just cut horizontal grooves in the two jaws, and use 12” clamps front to back instead needing to mess with threaded rods at all. Very cool , fast version of this.
Great video, I love the Mortal Kombat references. And that tip for threaded rod cutting was genius, thank you!
Nice video! I enjoyed it! Please remember to use an impact resistant face shield when using a cutoff tool. If the disc shatters the face-shield will protect you!
Jay, I am so glad you are back and doing your thang! Missed you for a while.
nice job ,and i love the photo with you and your baby ;) next generation of woodworker... cheers from FRANCE
Love the retro soundeffects!
Great video, Jay. I really liked the format and seeing your on-the-fly thought process.
The Mortal Kombat sounds are badass, specially at the end!
I love the irony of the dust collector in the background and you swipe the chips from the drill press on the floor. #futureproject
Your friend should key the inserts for the slot holes. Either by an actual notch and key or just tick marks. Would take out the guess work on that step.
Great idea and done. Everyone going forward will have a reference line.
You could consider creating a bevel on the top outside edge of the front jaw. This way you can position the material lower in the jaws thus eliminating chatter. This would be for half blind dovetails of course.
Another set of clamps and threaded rod could easily be lined up with with bench dog holes to eliminate the need for the parallel clamps.
I would lock/weld the handles onto to threaded rod so it doesn't protrude out the front, but when clamped it feeds through the rear jaw over the bench you're clamped to.
I don’t understand either why the thread needs to come out the front rather than the back. This would require a key way in the handle, and two parallel sides filed onto the threaded rod, with a grub screw to hold it all together. But entirely doable I would think. Any comments?
Thanks for clearing up the set-up . now I can save $ over the moxin kits online.
Nice work! By the way Danish Oil has Linseed oil in its make up…👏🇦🇺✌️
Those two part washers are called spherical washers. These are available in a variety of sizes from Carr-Lane, McMaster-Carr, Jergens, and others.
Great video, I built one a couple years ago and love it. The washer is called a spherical washer.
I love your soundeffects!
Thanks a lot for sharing this wonderful video. You are a good teacher also. I was wondering why you made the slots instead for holes and you even explained that too.
Thanks again.
great update on the moxon vise! I've lost count how many of these you have made now!
At 12:57 you should have waxed the outside of your Forstner bit before drilling. I usually use the "Solid Tapping and Threading Lubricants" McMaster Carr, 1009K22. Other holes squeeked like they could use some was as well. The washers are spherical washers at 21:18. Good video. Thanks.
Sick reference, bro. Your references are out of control. Everyone knows that.
Fine craftsmanship indeed.
You managed to reach through time and space and turn on my AC fan with your "Hey Google."
Love your videos, always a pleasure. Wasn't a fan of the sound effects, thought they were distracting and somewhat immature. Then I noticed in the comments everyone (but me) liked the sound effects. Guess the problem is mine. Will learn to live with the distraction.
I've been randomly adding sounds to videos for many years. Sorry.
Love the planter /jointer combo. Nice.
Jay, I like that you can use clamps to temporarily install it on the bench! Great build and demo and thanks for the links to the parts!
Wow, that sure is one SERIOUS planner!
I was thinking the same thing. Who has one like that anyhow?
Did I just see that right? Your jointer turns into a planer? I'm a little jealous.
That squeak makes a nice bird call....
I liked watching you use those templates to make the vise.
Just send that Rain over to Alabama... lol... This is so funny I was just looking at this vise on the Benchcraft site. Thanks!
Leather apron is sooooo cool, great vise too.
You can send the rain downunder, there's towns here with less than 5% water in their dams that provide water. There's been no rain in some areas for years.
Jay you made my Nest home hub play a radio station called "the fan" when you asked your Google assistant to "turn on the fan". 🤷♂️
Very cool trick with the nuts. You have already probably done it, but if you run into a situation where the nut trick does not work ie really messed up threads, I have had luck with carefully using the same size 'die' from a tap and die set to re-cut the threads so it all lines up again.
Excellent use of “flawless victory!” :)
Jay, I'm from Texas.....when I worked in Vicksburg, Miss. the winter was damn cold....a lot of the time well below freezing in the teens.........
Dude you have the most drool inducing shop on TH-cam... can I come live in a corner?
Nice new tools with that new shop like the hammer multi planner. Nice work jay
I got that over a year ago. :)
Thanks Jay! I bought the templates a few months back -- recognized them immediately! I was wondering how I'd finish the vice; your danish oil solution seems to work nicely. Been travelling recently -- I'm looking forward to getting back into the shop to tackle this project. As always, great job!
I saw Katz Moses make this too and was wondering, why not jam the nut to the back of the handle? And then you wouldn’t have the extra threaded rod sticking out the front but out the back and out of the way? Just wondering if I’m missing something before I undertake this project. Looks great
If the handle is attached to the threaded rod you cannot adjust the vise very quickly. Because the thread and handle will turn much slower due to friction than just the handle will.
Another informative video, also nice photo in back, looks like a happy baby.
For me isn’t something impressing in this construction . Easy diy, good functionality and very usefull vise
The impressing thing for me is the way that you explain and present step by step your thinks. Excellent video,excellent way to teach. Congratulations!! 👏🏻👏🏻
Always forget to watch on the website maybe remind us at start and could switch over from TH-cam if that helps.
I would watch on his website but you can't speed it up at all. I watch all Jay's videos on x2.
I usually watch it on you tube, ‘cause it’s more convenient. Then if I remember/gave the time/etc, I’ll jump over to his website and let the video just play on my phone while I’m off doing other things. He actually gets a double dip that way!
Thanks for turning on my fan!
Great sound effects!😝😝
Nice build Jay! Thanks!
Jay great video - I like your photo as a backdrop on the wall.
Toasty! Rise of the Triad, baby!~
When you use a milling machine, you have to move the wood against the rotation, in this way you have less probability to burn the wood, and you have more smooth finishing.
Why not put cork/rubber on both jaws? Just preference? Very nice build!
Nice build, thanks!
Great Job Jay 👍👍👍
Voce é detalhista, ficou perfeito.
I really like those handles, but they stick up above the top of the vise if they land in that position when tight. Might want to lower those holes if using long handles
I shall copy that, thanks Jay.
Awesome production.
Excellent video and process. Also, love the pic of you and your Son. Father and Son business. You are a great inspiration keep up the excellent work. Thanks for sharing.
I made one several ago with one major difference. I hated having the two rods sticking out where I was always getting hurt so I made the vice with the rods going out the rear. Problem solved.
Need to coat drill press riser with CRC Lubricant and rust inhibiter.
Nicely done
Great build and I will be adding this to my list of items I want to make...Plus looks like Google didn't listen to you because your fan was not running during your video shoot....hahaha.
Great video and learning experience for me. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Great project and video!! Thanks for sharing w us!!
Digging the voice over editing.. nicely done and funny!!
Like the sound effects
Fascinating. Great teaching video.
Awesome video, thanks for making my Google home play some podcast called "the fan" 🤣
Howser87 haha mine did the same thing. Radio station in Denver called 103.5 the Fan so it changed my sound bar in the house to the radio
One of the best vices I've found of this type. Where did you get the special cupped washers -- the 2 kits you gave links for show plain flat washers. Keep up the great work.
I was wondering the same thing.
Hmmm... I'm building that vice now and was wondering about those cupped washers (spherical washer.) 🙂🙂🙂
Thou shall not grind without goggles, Jay!
The mortal combat was awesome totally unexpected 😎👍
I’m thinking that Hammer planar/jointer/edger/whatever is worth more than every tool I own.....
The sound effects lmao! Great video.
