Bob was, in fact, my uncle. He taught machine shop in Oregon at the junior college level for years. Thanks for remembering him.

Most excellent Tom! Satisfies all the requirements of quick and dirty. ATB, Robin

I am a retired jig and toolmaker and I still love watching someone work who really takes a pleasure in workshop engineering

Glad to have you sharing your knowledge Tom. Great little build.

Very nice Tom. Nice idea.

Thanks Tom, I do like the small projects. Thanks for sharing!

Another excellent project from the Master Craftsman. Thanks for the video.

I really enjoyed that Tom. Quick easy and nice. Most of the time those don't go hand and hand. Well done! On the list.

Love it! Really enjoyable to watch. Also the sort of thing I enjoy building on the weekends.

I'm a simple man. I see Tom making a really elegant solution and doing it well, for all of us to follow along, and I upvote.

Love your videos. Wish you and Robin did many more. Thank you for the time and effort you put in to these.

A nice little project of something I didn't know I needed until you showed me! Thanks, and please do more like this. The other, in-depth theoretical stuff is great as well... just like technical school without any tuition!

Thank you Tom. I have been needing that. I can use to weld the compound angles of boat propellers and YET be very strong. Great for all types of welding jobs....what a great idea. -Tom

Now this guy is what's known as a craftsman...

Definitely like this kinda stuff!! Great to see you building another work of art

Quote "leave it in the comments if you like this kind of stuff" Definately yes, love watching you design and build intricate pieces of work.

what an amazing build! True craftsmanship!

This so much more hands on and old school . How we used to do it before CNC . Still quicker for one off jobs .

Very enlightening,love this kind of stuff. Machine heaven!

What a nice surprise at the end to see one of my "go fast" heroes! Great work Tom.

English, overbroncing, wailing! Such descriptive engineering terms. Love it.

Thanks for the video. I love seeing useful projects for the shop and I have just the perfect use for this one.

The simple projects are fun to watch. Nice job!!

Great idea. I have something similar that attaches to the bed of my wood lathe. Thanks for the video. You do a great job explaining everything that you do and easy to follow.

Great build! I love the hand work you do on your projects. My Dad was a machinist for RJR from the mid 50's until the late 80's he ran a ginormous radial drill press, this reminds me of how he used to build things. Great video I appreciate your channel

Great project. I've always enjoyed your shop improvement videos.

Brilliant, simple and elegant design. Lipton rules!!!

That was a perfect little project and something I think we could all use, thanks!

Great job Tom, quick and simple! Thanks

Lots of nifty tips delivered with this edition. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. These are the You Tube videos I enjoy the most.

Excellent video. I love all your project videos!

This is a brilliant idea. I'm putting this on my to make list. Thanks for sharing

Thanks for consistently delivering great content.

Great design and a nice build😀

Thank you Mr. Wizard. This is a great project that I'm excited to copy. I've been envious of your little vice mount, and now I can have my own. I hope you get back to making more videos too. Missing my meatloaf.

Very nice. I really enjoy these types of projects when you do them. Thanks!

Yes more projects please, it's been a while and you are a wonderful craftsman. Tool talk is cool but nice to see them in action. Thanks

a nice little job and good to see you back!

Love how you can make things look so easy, when I am used to having to cobble everything for lack of tooling. Always wanted to do machinist work but everyone wanted 5 years experience and there were no schools in my area. Became an aircraft mechanic from farm work, stumbled into a job for a place that had agricultural helicopters, apprenticeship got me the transition training to take FAA testing. Now retired, but still have the longing to make things and tools. Really appreciate your detailed videos.

the whispered "ah yeah" at 26:24 made me smile. Enjoying your craft is what it's all about.

It's great to see a project that uses every tool in the shop, including the files. The attention to detail is awesome. As a licensed electrician I know it's the attention to detail that make us "skilled" at our trade. Hat's off to you, sir.

Really nice ... tripped on your channel after my own South Bend lathe rebuild. Love this.

Your Dogmeat would make a great addition to any shop, Very well done Tom!

Outstanding work !

Once again I have to thank you for reminding an old "instrument maker" how much satisfaction he got out of making impatient academics wait a few more moments for some made on the fly part or repair as he filed off the sharp edges or just made the the thing "look" better. I used to help people make very small versions of this kind of clamp that they used to position electrodes. Thanks Tom!

We absolutely do like this kind of stuff. Nice video, Tom.

That's a great project! I'd love to see more of those. Thanks for sharing :)

Another great video Tom! Love the design, handwork involved and time you took to share it with us. 👍🏻👍🏻

I need one and now I can make one. Thank you so much! Very satisfying to watch. 👍👍👍

Another cool and well executed OxTool project. Thanks, Tom. Cheers, Gary

Function and form....nice! Thanks for the video.

The edge marking trick - awesome!

Great job Tom... I've been following your posts for years... thank you for creating such great content. Keep 'em coming!!

06:15 Man! you are just killing it with that cutter sound. thanks for video.

Good video. Lots of different tools and ops. Thanks for sharing.

Once again nice hands on work . 👍👍👍

Good work! Thanks for video from Ukrainian chipmaker!

very useful and very fine craftsmanship. I love to watch you do your thing and your unpretentious way of going about it.

I love the building of small tools!

Beautiful piece...great job!

Very good. Have used your transfer method a few times. Works real well for roughing out shapes in plate..

Very cool project and enjoyable to see!

+1 Jeff Cowan It's all the parts of the design that you don't talk about that make it stand out. Thank you, Tom, again. Jaime Blue Mountains, Australia

Wow! Awesome build, keep the projects coming, thx

Very cool! Good idea Tom.

Nice job Tom, slick design.

Excellent video Tom, thank you !

Elegantly simple design, I really like it. Thanks for sharing.

Very cool little project

Like it? Love it Tom! Who doesn't like watching a master tool maker at work? Well done.

Nice little project and please do more like it.

Love the way the back jaw moves very nice vice

We LOVE this kind of stuff... thanks for sharing such a wonderful """little""" project!!! :)

Talent + patience = artistry; seriously well done!

Nice....!!!! my bucket list keeps growing Tom.

Nice job Tom simple and easy

Really neat and outstanding work as usual. Thanks for sharing.

That grinder leaves a beautiful finish!

I haven’t heard the saying BOSS which means cool and tough since I was a kid in the 60s 🤪👍🏻✨ my father was a machinist from 1953 to 1996 he worked for Eagle electric manufacturing company in Long Island city New York. That’s one beautiful ball vase my friend😌✌🏻

Absolutely love this type of video /project! Keep it up!

Hey Tom, nice demonstration on the finish filing, this is something that takes time and patience to learn properly and the visual demonstration shows the steps of your technique. It would have been great to have a mentor like you in my youth! Cheers!

Very cool!! Came out sweet thanks for sharing!.

Handy project. Thanks for the video.

“And that, folks, is a little something simple you can achieve on your lunch break” Cheers Tom

Great build Tom, Thanks for sharing Gary 75-Year-Old Home-Shop-Machinist in North West Arkansas

Really enjoyed this video, I'm going to make myself one of these cool ball swivel stands !!!

Beautiful Work well done 10/10.

What a great idea. Nice work. Cheers

Awesome Tom! Thanks for sharing your Time and Many Talents. All the best. Chuck

That's a great little project!

Awesome short project and vid. Thank you!

Yes Tom this is exactly the type of video I like. Make stuff that's what it's all about.

G’day Tom, top idea for the workshop, now I know what I’ll do with my spare towball. Cheers Peter
