Check out the following paragraph taken from the Wilton website. It quickly explains all of the key features...
The Tradesman XC vise is designed to handle the most demanding clamping applications under the most extreme environmental conditions. Unlike most vises that have a fixed center nut, all Tradesman round channel vises use a nut anchored at the rear which provides straight line pull and even pressure resulting in greater durability. The round channel design also allows for a completely enclosed spindle and nut assembly keeping debris out and lubrication in for a lifetime of smooth operation. For ultimate versatility, all Tradesman vises are equipped with main jaws, pipe jaws and a machined anvil work surface. The Tradesman XC models also include electroless nickel coating of key components, prolonging life in corrosive environments, saving hundreds of dollars on repairs and avoiding countless hours of lost work downtime.

Question of the day: What type of projects would you use the anvil for? If you could choose between the 4 sizes of this vise, would you go with this 6.5" size or something else? And why?

Question of the day: What would you use the anvil for most often? If you could choose between the 4 sizes of this vise, would you go with this 6.5" size or something else? And why?
Hi mark
Collin Underwood Hey there, thanks for stopping by. Did you have a good Christmas?
That's a nice looking vise. I would go with a medium size one. I have no need for a large one. I do like it though.
@@s_s_gdesigns1856 I could get by with the 4.5" one, but it's nice to have the extra capacity. This is my upgrade from using a handed down drill press vise. My productivity just went up a couple notches, lol!
@@MarkThomasBuilder Yeah might as well go with the larger size, then not having a big enough one. 👍
Like your thought process, you answered all my questions. I have a Wilton Tradesman 1765 (not XC) on the way. Thanks.
Awesome, this vise will last a lifetime and help with all kinds of projects.
Hello, I’m looking at this same model minus the XC version. It’s been 3 years since you’ve owned this. How is it holding up and would you buy this vise again?
I see people smash and drill harddrives all the time, but it's actually easier just to take it apart with a screwdriver and get the discs out and just shatter them with a hammer or even melt them down or grind the surface down with a grinder. You could even use the little motor in there to spin on some sandpaper. The motors are extremely reliable high RPM electric motors, you can use for some fun projects too. Ihad a friend who used to use he discs as coasters for drinks. Just slap some thin cork on it with an adhesive backing.
Thanks for the advice. I was surprised how tough the outer part is. I'll probably take a grinder to them next time.
How expensive are the Wilton’s ?😊
@@thomaschetney990 I have some links in the video description, giving you the latest price and the best jaw liners, which I recommend.
Hi. I saw you had this vice on your workbench. How did you secure it to the bench as far as being solid and sturdy? Thank you
I tried puttting a 4x4 leg directly under the vise, to help support it when using the anvil. I then drilled 4 holes in my 3/4" work bench top and bolted it down. It's held up nice so far and comes in handy for all types of projects. I never realized how much I would use this vise.
@@MarkThomasBuilder thank you
Do you think 5 inch bench vise would be good for most DIY projects? Or, should I get maybe 6 1/2 inch?
I have a couple vises and would say the 5 in would be enough for most projects. I also use the Rockwell Jawhorse outside and that's holds the larger items that don't fit the bench vise.
I’d get the 6 1/2. Think about it.. you’ll never break it because it’s so large and it’ll hold everything you need.
Where are these made? I bough the Doyle 6 1/2 inch vise and man it’s pretty darn close to this.
I believe the box said made in Taiwan, according to USA specs.
I think this is an import model. The ones made in America have cast onto the side "Made in USA"... But this is no doubt a great vise.
I believe this one is made in Taiwan. It's a great vise that I use every day. I also bought some Wilton Magnefix Jawcaps which are rubber faced and worth the money.
Best free magnets inside the drives!
Cool!
the anvil, its so tiny. I have an actual anvil, its more than 15 times the size of that one. You could use that anvil for really tiny jobs though, would not hit it too hard. Maybe stamping keys with number punches would be fine light hammering. Its not meant for real anvil work though, just the small stuff. Love the vise. They have an 8 inch version of this for just under 4K just wow!
That's true, I only use it for minor things, similar to the example you gave. Other than that, this is a great vise that I hope lasts a lifetime. I also added the Wilton rubber jaw liners, which are awesome.
Тиски просто прекрасны !!!
😁
hello can you make videos about fz spray 7.2v spray gun& hose portable spray kit and ukoke 20v sprayer? thanks
Is that for portable cleaning?
@@MarkThomasBuilder about 7.2 v is a pressure washer. thanks
Is the XC made in Taiwan or USA?
It's now made in Taiwan. It wasn't too long ago that they were made in the USA.
@@MarkThomasBuilder They're garbage now. Even the spindles aren't cut properly.
Where is it made?
Taiwan.
@@MarkThomasBuilder
They use too be made in chicago
Nice vise for sure, but I almost fell off my computer chair when I saw the north of one grand price. Sorry, but that is ridiculous. Other than the XC coating/protection it is really no different than a $230 Doyle or a $140 Forward 6.5 inch vise. Not even made in the USA for that price. These are all american companies having their vises made overseas to their specs.
Yeah, I had sticker shock as well. I haven't tried a Doyle, but would be curious to see how they compare. I know this is a vise built for a lifetime and it's helped me in many projects, slowly paying for itself.
Can you ship me a 1780xc model?👀👍🏻
Sorry, I can't ship you one, but I did provide a link. 😀👍. I highly recommend this vise.
The biggest bummer is, it's made in China. Im sure its way better than most, with Wilton's specs though.
Yeah, I know that Wilton still makes some vises in the States, but this one is made in Taiwan, which some have commented is better than made in China. So far this vise it invaluable to me and works flawlessly.
@@MarkThomasBuilder I'm considering it.
Is this particular model made in China? I think it’s $1000 is that right? I figured with that price it be at least made in USA
@@BigHomie030 Nope, The Tradesman is made in Taiwan I just got that confirmed by Wilton. Depends on which model size your looking for on price. I've seen the 1745 XC for around $600. Some of their other models are still USA. I'd say even though its Taiwan made, its still most likely better than most of the China junk. I still think its a bit over priced for not being made in USA though. Depends on specs and materials used. China can make a great or a bad product, depending on specs. Some stuff from China is way better than it was, but hate buying China stuff.
@@Hill_Billy_Without_A_Hill I am looking for the one in this video same size same everything. I don’t care if it’s made in Taiwan. I was just asking because I tried to look for it and saw it for $999 I was like whoa! I was expecting it to be from 🇺🇸 for that price but I don’t care either way I want it
I ended up buying Heuer because I don’t like US products sent to China just because of greed. Also 3.5 inches of opening isn’t enough to justify the high price.
This one has a 6" jaw opening and it's made in Taiwan. They still have a vise models that they make in the USA.
IsleOfFeldspar the machinist and combination vises are still USA made. A 4.5” C1 is larger than a 1765 tradesman. It opens farther, has taller jaw towers and has real pipe jaws that are tool steel instead if powdered forged like the cheaper tradesmen
Hola. Estoy viviendo en Chile. Me encanta este modelo de tornillo de banco de 6" como puedo hacer para poder comprar este tornillo. Cuantos dollares cuesta!!! Y el envio..me puedes ayudar amigo. Muchas gracias.
I’m sorry, but that M18 Milwaukee cut off saw looks like it has no power. 👎🏽 No good for me. I need power. Stihl cut off saw best 👍🏽.
The M18 is handy for the smaller projects, no gas fumes. It would struggle if I tried to cut out a small section of asphalt.
You don’t know enough about work to need a vice like that.
It should last a lifetime, so I'll continue to work and grow my way up to it.
@@MarkThomasBuilder
😂👊🏻
Its chinese junk. It will fail soon enough.
@@CH-pv2rz It's not made in China though, dumdum.
@@CH-pv2rz Actually depending when it was made, it is either US made or Taiwan. Mine from 2016 is US made.
