Let’s build a wooden vise. But before we start we are going to build a home made table saw/ band saw/ jointer/ belt sander,,, shall we begin? This guys level of engineering and problem solving is beyond amazing!

You are a man of many vices.

I love this, I'm an Engineer with a carpentry as my hobby !! :-) This really appeals!!

Wow this really grinds my gears... Next on "Miami Vise"... I'll show myself out, thanks.

Clicked on this thinking it was made by CNC, impressed it was all by hand. Proper job.

I love your videos. Please don't get burned out on KZfaq, because I know how much work making these videos is. Can't wait to purchase the plans. Thanks. Leo

John you are nothing shy of pure genius.

John looks great nice seeing the gear in action with the clear front

hey John, why don't you mount one handle in the central gear instead of two handles on the side gears ? Amazing project, keep up with the good work

Always coming up with ingenious and unique shop aids is your specialty John

Man, John, I really love these. You put so much thought into the design, and so much production into the process. Always a great product.

This is the first time I’ve seen this guy and I love how all his machines are homemade. That’s freaking. AmaZing. LMG MOUNTED AND LOADED

John is back! He's goin fucken ham back there with all of these project vids

One of the Better Vice Designs I have seen on youtube. Nicely done John......

Although I understand you have many years in the construction and Building Trades, I always respect a man that has the mind of an engineer and can think up plans and execute them as smoothly as you do

Probably the best bench vice design I've seen. Smart. Well done.

To sort of quote Jack Nicholson in "As Good As it Gets" - " You make me want to be a better Woodworker"....... Brilliant design John.... I made another pair of your compact compass this morning...I give them away to fellow woodworkers

I saw the guy's vid who makes these with a bike chain and wondered how long til someone makes one with gears. I wouldn't have thought ply gears would be strong enough, awesome build. I was impressed with your wooden engineer's vice, this goes to another level.

Nice, I like the transparent plexi that allows you to see the gears in action!

I have made gears before and you too had the same trouble I did. I found that if you use a drill bit the same diameter as the gear and basically do everything else the same with disk sander and clean up it is faster and more uniform. Really cool idea and now I need to make my own.

Wonderfully made John, I love it ! So cool to see the inside mechanism. Thank you once again !

Possibly my favorite build of yours ever. Something about watching the gears go round and the other handle moving by itself. Great way to start 2019. Thank you for the video.

I can't wait to get (or build) a shop so I can build this vice. It really looks awesome!

Greetings from Russia. Loved your gear vise. I was making a vise with a wood screw. Now I want to make a fully wood vise with a gear. Thanks for the video.

I have been watching your progress on Instagram and was very excited to see the video. Great video and vice! Thanks for sharing John!

Hi John, Thank you for this video. I appreciate you continuing to make videos like this despite the troubles you're going through that you've explained in your other videos. Sincerely, A fan

That is just the coolest thing, ever. Great project.

Really nice work John. Thanks. A note on acrylic, it's generally not a good idea to use countersunk screws as the plastic is prone to crazing and cracking. The stresses under a countersunk screw head will do this if overtightened. Another approach, if you want the screw heads flush to the surface, is to counterbore and use pan head or button head hardware. Again, very nice!

Good idea, and profect manufacturing! Respect from Russia!

This may be the single coolest thing you've ever made.

With builds like yours, there's just not enough thumbs ups, you make the hard look simple and the complex look almost doable for the rest of us.

Exceptional work John, a simple, elegant solution to a vexing problem. Thank you for sharing your great thinking and hard work, brilliant, thanks again

Enjoyed watching you crank out another cool project John.

Sweet build John!

The adjustable vise was fantastic! But this one is AWESOME!! Still watching for something more "fast to assembly" for my workshop! Good job, like always!

This is a great looking vise.

Awesome John! Love it! :)

I really like this idea! I just bought the plans, and I'm thinking I may scale this up and rotate it 90 degrees to see if this works well as a way to keep a leg vise parallel. Thank you so much for sharing!

Excellent build. Showing off the gears was a good call. Great job.

Awesome project, John! More of this, please!

That’s awesome John. My sister got me that Makita cordless router for Christmas and the little bit that I have used it so far I have loved it, that thing is awesome and it’s so nice not being tethered or tied down with a cord.

Love this build, John. Made to fill your day or two ... But definitely designed to give one a feeling of accomplishment for sure. Wracking happens even in the best and this one will definitely contend with the best for least wrack.

Provavelmente o melhor projeto de bancada que eu já vi! Parabéns.

Holy moly! I see some wood gears in my near future. Thank you Mr Heisz!

John, incredible build! I’m just a beginner wood worker and am always amazed at what you can build with wood. Your videos have inspired me to try new things. Coming from a family of woodworkers I never really started working with wood until recently. I’m the mechanical one of the family! Now that I’m in my mid 50s, I am starting to appreciate wood working more and more and because of your videos I look forward to building all kinds of things. I have definitely made my mistakes and what a great way to learn. Knowing that the best wood workers even make mistakes gives me a lot more confidence and I keep going. Thanks for all the videos and I look forward to seeing more. THANKS!

John this is without doubt the coolest of all the projects that you have ever done. Absolutely fantastic...

Fantastic job John. Another clever way to skin the proverbial cat! Thank you for continuing to post. Simper Fidelis

That is a really cool Vice, The clear front panel makes it even cooler! thanks John.

Very cool project! Showing the gears in action with the acrylic is a great touch.

John this is fantastic! I really look forward to Sunday and your next vid

Great project John

John, that is awesome, really looks simple from the outside looking in. Another job well done. Thanks for sharing!!!!

Love it! As always - simple and elegant in a way that makes you wanna build it

That's a great build John, practical on a lot of levels.

I could watch the gears move all day long. Love the design and implementation.

Well done mate.

Pretty cool build.

This. Is. Phenomenal!!! When I saw that you handmade the gears I was sold. Awesome!

Great project! and I believe drilling the holes after making it round was the correct way to go, I believe having a hole in the end of the piece when you try to mount it on the lathe would have been far more problematic than drilling holes in a round piece of wood. Keep up the great work, I love to watch your stuff!

Your amazing John . love to see the creations you come up with. Great job

Always a pleasure and a learning experience watching your videos John! Thanks and have a great year!

That's the best project I've seen come out of your shop - love it!

Functional and beautiful! Great idea, and great job!

I just found the vice that I will build for my new workbench in a few weeks! Perfect timing, John! Thank you! Pretty damn clever! Not that I'm surprised one bit though! Thanks for sharing! Happy Sunday!

Great creative work as always John! The use of that plastic cover is pure genius!

(At the time of writing) Why would 161 give this extremely clever and skillful build a thumbs down??? Sad, very sad!!!

John, another outstanding project. The level of detail is first class, very professional and easy to follow! I am continually amazed by your level of craftsmanship. I guess this provides me something to shoot for in my work. Thanks again for your work and great videos!

Great job John.

Great looking vise John! Thanks for sharing the video with us.👍😎JP

Even though I don’t do woodworking, or have a shop, these videos are very fascinating and learn a lot! gives me some excellent ideas for when I do get a shop. Keep it up john👍

Nice idea John, is suitable for my workshop!

John, How fun! Who says shop furniture and equipment can't have style? Digging the uniqueness of the exposed gears!

Matthias will be jealous of all those gears ;) very ingenious

Great build, love it!! Cant wait to see you make a Miter Saw. Your home made tool collection is epic.

I have been think of how vise moving instantaneously and consistently, but you have done it. Bravo 👍👍👍

Now that is the kind of video I really really enjoy.......awesome build John.

John: Un trabajo realmente hermoso! Felicitaciones!!!

Beautiful build

Very nice. Thanks for the video John!

Absolutely stunning!

Very creative and awesome , love to see you create these working projects.

Mega cool, I love it when showing technique like this Especially if you have built yourself. My respect! 😎👍

Very cool idea that made it from brain to wood

Super neat design!

If those were timing gears in an automotive engine, especially an overhead cam engine, they would be called idler gears. Nice setup John.

You have great ideals and skills

Looks Awesome John , Putting on my Build List.

Ypu really are an ideas genius John.

Love your builds John. Great way to ring in 2019

Outstanding build! You always amaze me with your creativity, GREAT

Excellent project artistic and practical

That is very cool! I have always wanted a twin screw vice for my bench so now I know how to make one without having to pay the $$'s for a commercial one. One more project added to the To do List.

A work of art with a function, Excellent job👍

Wow this is gorgeous!

Beautiful job you are a genius !!

That is too cool, John. Well done!

Excellent workmanship. I really like your design too.

This is an amazing grab. Your imagination is very useful for us. Thank.

Build a twin screw leg vice John. I will definitely buy the plan for that and so would many others. Fantastic channel John - Keep up the outstanding work!
