I felt the same way. Although I learned everything I needed to learn, that was a horrible way to end the video. How do you end the scene at that angle? Haha... Thumbs up, regardless.
@@jasonwright2262 Right, but when you consider the fact that everything else in the video was not rushed, the ending seems rushed. Before the sudden cut-to-black scene, every step has a sense of "closure" to it. I mean, it's not that serious, though.
If anything, it was the opposite. I don't want to make my own bolts :) This had everything you needed to know about installing the vice plus more in case you wanted to make custom bolts. Perfect!
Eejit I can see you’re struggling here. So since you don’t see the humor in my comment and took the time out of your day to make a rude comment towards me. I’m going to recommend you step away from electronics and attempt to actually be a productive individual, then you can fall back on basic human interactions. Such as sarcasm and humor.
If you can find about a 12x12x1 inch plate of steel you can mount it to the bench and then have different holes for different vices/anvils and swap them as needed.
A fairly thick steel plate (3/8" to 3/4") under the vise will allow you to run the vise right up to the edge and spreads the load. Something thick enough to drill and tap is best. For that little vise I'd say something like 6"x8"x1/2". It also adds to the mass of the vise, which is something you need when wailing on it with a hammer.
Just a suggestion, when putting a vice on a wood bench that close to the end you can always cut out a square piece of 1/8" steel the size of the Vise to bolt underneath to act as one giant washer.
Interesting...I always put like a 12 inch square plate like 1/8 or 1/4 under the bench so the bolts never want to pull through the woods. Last thing you want is to pull on your vice so hard that the bolts dig into the table and get lose! Surface area is key!
I wanted to mount the vice but I need another vice to make a bolt!! haha. I am jk. Thanks for the video! I will try to find a steel plate somewhere mount it underneath... though
Great video! As always, I know that there are multiple ways to do things, I’m just curious as to why you prefer not to use lag bolts for mounting. I’ve used lag bolts on 3 different benches and never had a problem. That’s with using cheater bars and all kinds of torture to my Wilton tradesman. I’ve really enjoyed this series...keep up the great work!
Food for thought.... Placing a spacer in the bench side of your vice's jaws will shift the "long object" going into it further away from the edge of the bench. This allows you to extend reach regardless of which side of the vice swing you're on and allows you to place mounting bolts further in from the edge of the wood/bench. Only draw back to this method that I know of is it decreases the maximum width you can open the jaws of the vice.
@Wranglerstar, I like that you chose to use a thread locking fluid. But it is designed to be applied immediately before placing the nut and bolt under load. If you want to pre-install the nut (a convenient idea, in this case), then I recommend screwing on a second nut just to put a little load on the nut that you want permanently attached. Use several flat washers to prevent the temporary nut from seeing any of the thread locking fluid. This allows the thread locking fluid to fill the gap in the threads (as is its purpose) without being placed directly in the load path.
I started watching your videos after seeing the OSIS Survival Kit video suggested while watching other survival content. Enjoy your conservative values and have learned a lot despite the fact I’m not a logger or a homesteader but rather a 26 year old recovering heroin addict going to school to be a physicist. It’s a testament to ones communication skills and quality of videos when you can make connections with such differing backgrounded people. Am subscribed and look forward to tuning in for future videos!
I extended my 5 Ince vice past its threads how do I get it screwed back in? It's not lying up and poking a screw into the little hole to try and align it is not working either, It's grabbing a little bit not getting it done.
Just a tip on that allthread. Put 4 nuts on each section you want to make. The two in the center should be turned against each other tight so they won't turn. After cutting, unthread the other two off the allthread and that will help to untangle the threads that were mangled in the cutting process.
I normally don't mind this sort of thing but for some reason this particular case annoys me, as an Englishman. Why have Americans chosen to spell the word "Vice" as "Vise" when it's pronounced "Vice"? To me, you would pronounce "Vise" by saying "V-eyes."
for the same reason that we spell Aluminum without the extra "i". It's a different dialect of a similar language. I will always miss the Queen; God save the King.
#100LikesChallenge I'm going back on 100 of your videos and hitting that like button! I watch nearly every one of your videos and despite your reminders to hit the thumbs up, sometimes it simply doesn't happen.

i love all of your content, you're very knowledgable in many areas and i'd like to say i've learned a thing or two from you..i'm glad that i ended up running into this video today.
What is the watch you are rotating on your screen at the end of your video with an X in the center? Just curious if it means something or just a part of the video editing process for making it interesting? 👍
Cody's a master at trolling hecklers! Guaranteed, you complain about something, get a chorus of commenters firing off about the same issue, the inclusion of that thing will become a Wranglerstar permanent fixture! I get quite a few chuckles from the Loctite placement, the Rolex, the USPS plastic bins over which he's been scolded, whether or not he has a toupee. Funny stuff!
Cody, I did the same thing to my stainless steel bench! One thing I didnt account for was thinking about where the leg was but I went and checked and its over the leg no issues but you brought up a good point about hovering it above the leg for strength! God Bless!
Glad to see I'm not the only one that instantly had the thought about a support plate on the bottom. Another idea could be to have welded those nuts on the top to the allthread and ground it flat to look like a real bolt. Then you just had one point of loosening if the loctite fails over time.
My father worked nearly 30 years as an automatic fire sprinkler fitter. I worked with him a bit too, wish I would've stayed in that field. They use lots of all thread and special clamps and hangers to hang sprinkler pipe in almost every application. We used those lessons, and lots of all thread, back on the homestead projects.
The step you took regarding the rear jaw of the vice overhanging the bench so that you can put long jobs in the vice was what I was trying to say about the Drill press in the previous video. Have the drill press on the end of the bench so that you can turn the head round 90 degrees and stand longer jobs on the floor or on blocks.
I love this series! I must get a bench like this done myself! But I will be mounting my vintage 1960s pillar drill, English made record vice and my bench grinder (need a better one than what I have now). They don't make tools like they used to
hi guys, any thoughts on chosing left corner or right corner in a long narrow bench? i have worked on both ends on non rotary vices and cant make up my mind on wich one i prefer. i'm building a new bench and cant decide wich end to mount the vice. thanks!
Stupid question... I'm not handy and need to do this. For thick wood like this... how do you ensure you are drilling straight through the wood? I'm concerned I may go through at an angle on accident. Thanks
I enjoyed watching this video as it was very interesting. I would like to mount a vice to the top of a concrete block retaining wall in my basement and thought if I could somehow glue or use tapcon screws through the wood and into the concrete block it might work. Does anyone have any other suggestions that might be better? If so, I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!
Question about the workbench... I've replicated this build. But I've noticed the bench shakes ALOT when I plane on it, or even sharpen my chainsaw blade in a vise. It's not bolted to the ground, but I dont think that's the cause. Should I just bolt it into my concrete wall?
@@frostfirei apparently you've never seen the after effects of having your hand sucked into a grinder or table saw because of wearing gloves or other loose clothing.
I enjoy your vides W, just watching the steps you take, even the small details that others cut out; very relaxing and fun to watch! I can't wait to make a bench top like this one. Job well done!!
Love it, thank you. I’m only 20 and have bought my own home with a shop I used to dream of and your videos and words have helped me tremendously. Thank you for it all!
When you pointed out that the vise needed to clear the edge of the bench, I was like, "D'oh!" I'm sure you saved me some headaches. Thanks, a very helpful and professionally-filmed video!
Wait, that's it? I finished that video feeling rushed for some reason
It's a video on installing a Vice. I don't know how or why he could or would stretch the video out. To the point to me!🤷🏽♂️

FireEMS Craftsman oh really your dissertation reply .....was over board for my sarcastic remark 9 words and not an insult your very sensitive Nancy
My man uses a vise, to prep for installing another vise. Legend
If you can find about a 12x12x1 inch plate of steel you can mount it to the bench and then have different holes for different vices/anvils and swap them as needed.
In Fireball Tools's recent video, he had a neat design. Though he does have a waterjet.
@@RenThraysk I saw that and I'll be making something similar soon. I have plenty of T-bolts here to use too
@@RenThraysk
That *is* a neat design. I'll have to make one.
You beat me to the punch. Kinda like a hitch hookup for a trailer. You can swap out different tools.
1 inch? that's a little over kill you could get away with 3/8s but 1/2 would be a little better.
I disliked because you didn't finish. Tighten em up and pull and yank on it. WTF!
What, no plate or big washers under the bench for some nice support? Talk about philistines!
All in all, nice work!
So, did you reference the mounting holes in the bench legs before you drilled the holes in the top?
He will decide position of legs afterwards
A fairly thick steel plate (3/8" to 3/4") under the vise will allow you to run the vise right up to the edge and spreads the load. Something thick enough to drill and tap is best. For that little vise I'd say something like 6"x8"x1/2".
It also adds to the mass of the vise, which is something you need when wailing on it with a hammer.
shouldn't be beating the living daylights out of a cast iron vise. they will break; they're not meant for that kind of abuse
Thank you for this advice. I have put together my first gun bench and I want to make sure the vice is secure. Thanks for the advice.
@@theTealStory what is then?
@@bradleypease2492 ones that aren’t cast. Or a post vise or an anvil
@@theTealStory i abused my aluminum and cast iron vise since years ago and it still works fine 😂
Kinda cringed seeing you work with gloves around rotating equipment. I did enjoy the video other than that!
Just a suggestion, when putting a vice on a wood bench that close to the end you can always cut out a square piece of 1/8" steel the size of the Vise to bolt underneath to act as one giant washer.
Good point, especially on butcherblock. Too many joints that can separate under heavy use.

should have put a 1/4" plate under the bench top to bolt through
Or 4 washers might do the trick.
The irony of using a vice to bolt down a vice lol
I wanted to mount the vice but I need another vice to make a bolt!! haha. I am jk. Thanks for the video! I will try to find a steel plate somewhere mount it underneath... though
Why not just put a big plate of steel underneath so it's not pulling
I like how you used a vise to make bolts for your vise
Bought a 6.5" Wilton tradesmen bullet vise on FB marketplace today. Good deal and pretty stoked about it.
I was watching this because I just received a 6 1/2 Wilton BASH for Christmas. It came with a 4lb hammer. Decades over due for a vice.
before you install a vise you need an installed vise.
"how to make money"
Step 1: have money
Shorty but a goodie. Thanks for some Sunday enjoyment Cody!
Thats a pretty slick way to clean up your nuts
Soap and water is less aggressive.
Just finished watching Fireball Tool doing terrible things to vices over on his channel, including some Yosts.
Just been watching that myself, his one he made is a beast!
Not lying I literally just came from that video!

LOVE the video. I am impressed you making your on bolts, what is that red stuff?
My god... this is common sense.... just came to see how stupid this video might be... i was right.
So, you need a vise, to install a vise ... wrong, corroded watch band !!!
Many thanks to you (2:37), I too enjoy my Dansko Tatical clogs. However I catch a lot of grief in my choice of footwear.
How can you tell where to locate it when it's flopping around on the base. Expert work 😆
that's a huge screwdriver lol
East Coast guys have never seen a screwdriver this big,
@@wranglerstar Do East Coast guys use pliers on their nuts?
east coast guys have small nuts , over there they just spit on em.
You'll have to ask their wives,
How is your bandsaw setup? is that a custom-made set up?
dirtysteve40 The saw is held in place by a table designed by Troy Rutherford who owns Swag Offroad. Makes quality stuff.

I thought you was going to bolt the vice thru the leg mount.
Yes, I will do this,
Always heard that called threaded rod. I hear all thread and wonder what's that. Now I must Google to find out what really is the proper name.
East Coast guys have never seen All-thread,
I'm from England, UK and IV always known it as threaded rod as well, must be an American thing.

Sounds weird seeing it spelt vise in American coz I’m English it’s a vice seems to make more sense in English
Love the watch spin 😂
CC’d
Can the bolts be skinnier than the vice holes or should they be a more snug fit?
About 125 millimetres for all you non Americans.
How will mounting the vise so close to the edge of the table change how you will trim the sides of the table in a couple years?
Using gloves with a grinder is extremely dangerous
2 and 1/4 people a year have the glove snatched off of their hand by the grinder!!!
Without gloves is much more dangerous, I once ground the end of one of my fingers off.
