  • This old number 6 Parker vise is the biggest one I have every seen. This big guy needed a new set of jaws cut and hand fitted and I took the job. In this video I finish up the fitting on the metal shaper and show some new tools that I recently picked up for the shop.

As a retiree, I’m enjoying learning a new craft of machining, so that part is alright too. So whatever you decide to share with us is going to go along great with my Saturday morning coffee. I’m looking forward to seeing a new series on how to rebuild a square body 1 ton crew cab hauler.

    Glad to hear your Mom is back up and about, that must have been painful. My dad passed 5 years ago. He was in auto parts in the 1960's, I think he would have been impressed by your pickup rebuild, especially the attention put into getting the engine assembly just right, it would have made for some good conversation. My mum is 79 this year, and slowing down quickly. I guess my point is: make the most of the time you have left. Greetings from down under (Adelaide, Australia).

    How do you spell satisfied, , , , , "Lets go to Steve's Shop" LOL. I sure agree on weathering these jaws. They draw the eye away and just look out of place or an afterthought. I am sure looking forward to seeing the big saw come back to life. I have been wondering about it for some time now. Elizabeth chose a couple fine things. That new truck is common sense for you folks and she got herself a fine fella too boot. I am a real fan of these digital mic's. I bought my first one when I left machining school to my very first job as a machinist back in the late 70's. You chose these new tools very well. Sorry to hear about your mom. I have really bad osteoporosis and have broken both legs in short falls transferring from recliner to my wheelchair. These old bones just haven't got what it takes anymore. Awesome post Steve. Watching you fit those vice jaws was a real pleasure. That is being a machinist. Take care and hope to see you soon my friend.

    This little series of vice jaw videos made me realize that a shaper does have a place in todays hobby machine shop. I've had a lathe , and a milling machine, for over a decade now and never saw the usefulness of a shaper...but finally, I've seen the light. There are certain things that a shaper can do fairly easily that no modern machine can do without some serious working around. If the right. lightly used, shaper appeared into my life, I'd just have to buy it.
