$42 Moxon Vice Build - Using PRESS CLAMPS & wood laying around the shop!

Рет қаралды 20,374

2 ай бұрын

I had a piece of poplar left over from when I built my bench, so I used that as the fixed board and face board. I purchased the hardware on line for $40 (searched for press clamps) and two washers for $2 at my local hardware store. This was a very easy build that can be done in a day. The glue up is the only step I had to wait for.
The following pages and links inspired me to make this vice:

Love the video, great content and great value. But one suggestion would be to reduce the volume of the background music as I need to keep raising and lowering the volume on KZfaq to hear your voice versus the music my suggestion only but keep up the great videos.

Thank you very much. I’m trying to figure that issue out. I thought I had it but when I posted it, it was back to being too loud. I’ll figure it out on the next one, hopefully.

Thank you Daniel. I hope I linked to your video correctly. It’s the dove tail making one that inspired me to build this so I can start cutting dovetails by hand. If I didn’t just let me know or post a better one and I will pin it to the top.

I have a couple of those made by Pony for a different purpose. I never thought about using them for a Moxon. I ended up buying some 3/4" Acme rod and nuts to make my own. This would have been cheaper and easier for sure!

Yeah they work really well. Thank you for watching.

I'm interested to see how durable the press clamps are in this application over time. I intend building a new moxon vice for the new bench and was thinking of using the press clamps for the same reason you have. I intend having springs around the screw thread between the two jaws to naturally keep the jaw spread for ease of use. That will require a two stage diametre hole in both the fixed and floating jaw around the screw thread.

@woodnotestudio 2 ай бұрын

I love the idea of the springs. I might add that later down the road. The quality of the metal seems pretty good so I think it would hold up for a long time. I will post if anything fails on it.

Please accept this a honest criticism. Watching this video was difficult as the music was to loud and your voice over was to soft. I had to adjust my volume all the time. Should I stumble upon another video again and if your audio is balanced out, I will subscribe as your work is good. All the best.

@woodnotestudio 2 ай бұрын

Thank you very much. I completely understand and will have it fixed on all future videos. I know what the problem is and if I am unable to balance out the music I will remove it. Apparently people don’t care that much about it. Thank you again for feedback and hope to get another chance for you to consider subscribing.

How wide is it and how thick of material are you using grate video trying to make me one thanks

@woodnotestudio 2 ай бұрын

@donaldjauregui1625 I made it specific to the dimensions of my bench to avoid bolts and screws. It’s 22 inches wide and I’m using 3/4 inch poplar. The face consists of two glued together for 1 1/2 inch thickness and the back is 3/4 attached to 1 inch thick pine since that is the frame of my bench. Let me know how yours turns out.

Those “press clamps” are actually “hole mount screw clamps”. Press clamps are used with a drill press.

@woodnotestudio 2 ай бұрын

I’m not sure, but the box they came in said they were press clamps. But what you’re saying definitely makes sense. Thank you.

@1deerndingo 2 ай бұрын

They are advertised as Press Clamps.

@red58impala 2 ай бұрын

I believe this style of clamp is traditionally used in a "book press", so they call it a "press clamp."
