Wirst du ein giveaway machen mit ein paar der Schraubstöcke? Wär cool :-)
Denk mal darüber nach einen E Bay oder Etsy Shop mit den überflüssigen Sachen zu machen, die sich so anhäufen
I got some silver plated trays that are made of brass a the thrift store. They are worn and need replating. I had intended to cut them in strips and hard soldier with them. Anyone tried this cheap source for rods?
Do you give tours of the junk yards you visit? I wanna go to the junk yard with you.
WOW WOW WOW First time I saw someone put on penetrating oil on ALL moving parts and let it soak in !!!!!
You hit the nail on the head. Nothing is built to last these days; indeed; I argue they are built with planned obsolescense in mind. Designed to fail within 2 years; long enough for the consumer to forget a warranty, but short enough to get the buyer back into the dealership again.
I have a 1958 B250 tractor. It was built tough; and is still going strong today. 63 years of hard work and she's still going strong.
Stuff used to be build because no-one had something...
If you would still build stuff like a tank, you wouldn't survive as a company.
I still prefer the old stuff, my lathe is a southbend from 1931, still turning as needed..
My mopeds are from the 70s..
I don't like the new plastic stuff 😂
Keep it maintained and your grand children will use it!!!
@@denniswhite166 first my children have to be old enough to be able to use it...
It will last here 😊
You'll be able to open a Vise museum in the next episode!! good finds as usual, i need to repair mine its getting pretty sad.
Love your videos but yes you need to give that vice some love
"using an angle grinder to grind an angle" ....it certainly falls within in it's job description.
Just came home tired from welding and doing electrical work all day...new video! Time to relax. Cheers from Argentina
I don't mind repeated vice repairs - it warms the heart to see these beautiful tools restored to working condition. Well done!
Love the message of long lasting tools that can be repaired and live on, built in obsolescence be damned!
You could run a separate channel called Vise asylum.
Vise Lords
@@johnpossum556 Or run a Vise magazine.
Vise words
The new channel could be called'' Vise Versa''...
Vise Advisor
I love how you didn't paint over the brazed part of the vice. It's like the vice has scars,history and personality. It's awesome!
I wish we also have scrapyards that has old useful things like that...
the scrapyards around here will permanently ban you if they catch you even picking a door hinge off the ground, every time i go there I keep asking them when well they do a buy scrap back day, not looking like its about to happen anytime soon.
@@patprop74 if i stay to look at stuff to long they start to follow me until i leave.. i dont get it its only scrap and im more then willing to pay for it... when i was a child i was really into computers everytime i was at the scrapyard to get rid of stuff beyond saving i would get more stuff home then i left there. i would not have afforded that interest if i did not do that... oh i miss the shipping containers with no camaras..
@@patprop74 sadly it happens,
I have one yard that I don't get any hassle. The owner recognized me because I was a pallbearer for his cousin. Sad, but the man let's me pick and dig around.
The other yard I go to trys to give everyone a hassle. I make a mental list of what I would like to find and I go with a friend who is selling a load of scrap. We pull in and start slowly off loading his scrap. Anything I see that I want, i put on the trailer or in the toolbox of the truck. That yard weighs you in and out. You're paid for the amount you weigh less leaving so anything I grab is paid for. One time a guy asked me about something on the trailer leaving and I just told him that it wasn't supposed to be scrap and that someone must have put it on the trailer by mistake.
If you don't know anyone who sells scrap to the yards, go by one and wave down a pickup truck with two or three guys in it. The pickup without a trailer and two or three guys is generally going to be a few wine-os. It's a couple of alcoholics that gather up enough junk to buy a bottle of booze.
Tell them what you want to do and offer to pay them. They'll jump at the deal. They get some junk and let you ride with them. While inside and off loading, do what plundering you can. Since they're getting extra drinking money, they will call you often and offer to take you in. You can even make them a list and they'll do your shopping for you! Hopefully some of this will help.
Yall Take Care and be safe, John
@@patprop74 The only scrapyard around me will not allow you to buy stuff either. Kinda stupid IMO, especially when stuff could be repaired & reused... =(
The old UK tool company "Woden" had a range of cast steel engineers vices for sale in the early to mid 1900's.
They're tough as hell, but are easy fix with a welder if you do break one because, unlike cast iron, the localised heating at the site of a weld doesn't fill the material with micro fractures.
I used to find a vice at the local scrap metal recyclers, buy it, renovate it, use it for a few months, then find something better at the scrap yard, and the cycle started again. I must have bought, done up, and eventually sold 15 to 20 vices over 3 or 4 years ! The last one I found was a quite battered Woden "186e/8A Steel" Quick Release vice. Being an all steel body meant I just built up weld in the few badly mangled areas, and ground it back to the original shape. It's been a real gem of a tool. Since getting that I haven't found any others I wanted to replace it with.
I still buy the occasional tatty vice to do up though. Why wouldn't I? They cost their scrap value by weight, they usually just need stripping, cleaning, de-rusting, painting, and greasing. Then once checked over and cleaned up, there's currently an alarmingly large mass of people on eBay who are willing to bid what I feel to be ridicules money for good quality classic vices !
I'm not working at the minute, so who am I to turn down some reasonably easy pocket money ? :D
Good stuff. You are carrying on the tradition of thrifty and self sufficient people everywhere, those hardy individuals who see the value of things. This saves money and is a good skill to know in the best of times, and will be like gold in the worst of times. Thanks for sharing!
when someone finds this in another 100 years they will smile
The amount of effort you put into your restorations shows that you are true to your word and are not just doing this for show. Great content as always and a pleasure to watch! Keep up the excellent work, dude! 🤘
I absolutely love watching your videos. I myself like to try to also repair all the old tools that I find. Because of your projects and videos I have taken to going to the scrap metal yard to find stuff.
As always a pleasure to watch you save good tools .
I really like the Kintsugi repair style on these tools. Highlighting the flaws with brass actually makes them better in my opinion
Love the brazing. It is such an underappreciated technique usually because people think its weaker. Well it is, but not by a whole lot. And brazing comes naturally if you have any experience soldering.
Why is this so entertaining? I think it’s the recycling, and anti-wasteful thing about it. Also fun so see old tools and machines, that are just about to get crushed and melted down, get a second chance and a new life:).
Keep it up!
I really enjoy these type of videos. You often see "Reduce, Reuse & Recycle" here in the US. I really think Repair needs to be added ! I love to buy used/broken equipment and repair them, unfortunately I do not have all the skills and knowledge you do, but I am learning from you. This makes these video doubly exciting !
A leather apron is very nice when using the wire wheel.
It keeps the fly away bristles from working their way through your clothes.
I can't pass up a good vise either. I enjoy the history you find on these old tools.
Some beefy vices. Can't have too many. Can give as gifts. Thanks for the video.
Excellent advice! Great finds, thanks again!
You rock mate, your videos are therapeutical. Thanks for this fantastic content!
You have some serious skills! cutting that iron like a butter is fun to watch.
if anyone sees what you're doing on 11:17 and thinks to themselves "I can do it" they're on to some good surprize.
THAT GRINDER IS HEAVY AND STRONG!
I tried curring a 3mm sheet with modern lightweight 500 Watt rginder and a small wheel and it kept flying aroud.
What u find in the scrap yard is awesome ! I do it all the time .
8:00 "Yo dawg, I heard you like vices, so I put a vice inside your vice!"
I, likewise have a cast-steel vice. Mechanics favour them as they can withstand severe sledgehammer abuse without cracking. Allegedly.
My dad still uses his 3310, he bought from new, i mean...it's technically the same phone (not really). I've been repairing it for him for years now. Still works, does all he needs to do. He gets annoyed that some things like delivery apps assume he has a modern phone... funny, a few decades ago, that phone was state of the art.
I like the cast steel vice with the dove tail jaws, what a great idea.
Great seeing you not only repair stuff - but USE IT - especially using it to repair OTHER stuff! I HATE how everything nowadays is all throw-away....
Yes!!!, I love your content KEEP it up I clicked so fast as I've been waiting for one of these for a while this has made my day😁
Mine too!
@ 8:05 "I HAVE USED THESTONES TO DESTROY THE STONES"😂
Instead of using a brass alloy to make repairs on these vices you may want to investigate nickel-based alloys instead. I have not brazed a vice, but I have used nickel brazing filler rods on many other items made of a wide variety of ferrous metals with excellent results. Generally speaking, nickel-based alloys are stronger than brass alloys and are especially appropriate for cast iron and mild steel joinery. In addition, the nickel alloys wet better and have better thermal characteristics match to those base metals than brass alloys do. They are more expensive, however. I absolutely love well-made tools and am blessed to have some that were my grandpa's. He was a master machinist but most of his tools were auctioned off, but a few escaped the sale and are now mine until they pass to my son. It is a joy to use quality tools that have stood the test of time. They should be preserved! Thanks for what you do!
Very cool. Keeping this stuff out of the ground is great. Thanks for a great video.
Your videos are always entertaining and educational. I truly enjoy these repairathons.
I love this series.
im so happy that you didnt cover your awesome brazing job.. theres something about soldering that just gets me going!
Part of the trouble with waste is that as economies advance, materials get cheaper and mass production gets more efficient, while individual labor becomes more expensive. It used to make economic sense to repair as much as possible, and people valued things that could have lasted longer. But we’re at a point now that repairs don’t make much sense for most people, so the incentive is to make goods as cheap and replaceable as possible.
just watched your vid on wind turbines from quite a few years ago, and yes, personally i WOULD like to see more alternative energy experiments. i ended up buying a 3kw turbine, because living where i live, trying to get the materials to build a 40ft tower is next to impossible! but i do love to tinker and have lots of bits and pieces from previous experiments.
Those heavy duty vices deserve better painting work. Yes, they don't need to be look shiny and fancy but at least their painting work can be correlated with their ruggedness.
You should sell some of the items you repair, that old Vise is really nice!
Excellent repair to tools still worthy to be in the work shop.
I went to the junkyard today and found a farmall 140 and a lot of attachments for it all for the low price of $500
Dear L.B.
👍👌👏 Congratulations!
Best regards, luck and health.
Nice find I google it.. real nice find. I've picked up so much stuff I'm broke. Ten milton vices most like new when shops shut down the heave. The list it toooo long. Dont go to big yards they dont have the time, go frequently.
If you don't mean to use it you could make good money parting it out
Scrapyard Kintsugi - it's beautiful brother!
Bravo, Gerolf. Nice vise repair
I really enjoyed this video. It is truly appreciated. Thank you very much.
Nice precise vice - Twice.
Kobalt is the House brand of Lowes Home improvement. I work at the Lowes in Springdale Ohio, and Have no Idea how that Tripod made it to Germany. Kobalt's pretty decent, not commercial grade, but better than most modern lines, including post 2010 craftsman.
Full steam ahead please. I am a big fan of your work.
I like these videos, please keep making them. Best wishes from New Brunswick Canada.
Beautiful video as usual!!!
I learn so much from your videos. Thank you.
German Kintsugi...😍
That jack is a great de-vice.
Germany has a great health care system, maybe you could look into some kind of 12 step program for all of your vises.
es ist so faszinierend was du machst..
Should get a 3d Printer and a CNC Plasma Cutter would be cool to see what you would do with them
12:01 "Using an angle grinder to grind an angle" Finally that tool comes to proper use =)
Great man, as always
love the new episode of TPAI Vise City
If the shipping cost to get it here in the United States would be not be $1,000,000 i would buy one and pay the shipping cost. But as I am not made of money I will have to settle for just looking at them.
Thank you for sharing the process with us.
Love these videos!! Takes me back to when i was a welder aprentice and when i did farm work. When i finish studying i wish to do this as part time myself. Right now i cant because i live in a student collective with a small room, but i do similar things, though only on small items, when i am back home again. It would be very interesting if you could find left over tools and that sort of stuff from the GDR and other former socialist republics along the german border. Very interesting to see the design choises they made there during that time. Good luck with further videos, greetings from Norway!
I really like your videos, keep up the good work!
I love the vise channel 😍
Looks like you're in a vice with discarded vices.
You had a vice w.. Ok I'll stop there.
Anvils used to be "it" for collectors, I predict vices are next, you can make a fortune off of all these :D
I really like the brazing! To me it looks awesome, almost like gold, and it sorta adds character. :3
On the vice stand,s ERC marking.
I read that vice logo as KEco and there's a Dutch tool company called Keco that currently manufacture products for automotive body repair. It's a tenuous link at best and I can't see any history on the company.
This channel is fantastic!
We call the “slopes” or “angles” by the term “bevels”
Your electronics projects are much more fun.
Great video as always. Thanks
Full steam ahead....................!!
Keep up the good work, love your content.
in my country Cambodia, old vise is very expensive it cost around 70 to 100usd most of them are import from japan.
I‘m always wondering what you do with all the tools and devices after restoring them? Do you sell the stuff eventually?
Otherwise you must have a workshop full of vices and other machinery?
Awesome work!
Nice video again, you say you don't keep all the vices and other tools probably aswell. Wehere do you sell them, and do you ship to the Netherlands?
Great series!
a man of many vices
Repair-A-Thon 's why im here.
Have you considered selling your restorations that you have multiple examples of?
Fantastic.
I need to find a place like your scrap yard near me!
Well done
The Post Apocalyptic Vices
Welcome back on another episode of "the post apocalyptic vise collector"
Great video! Thank you :)
I read EBO maybe EBC on that second vice
It’s an ERCO vice the second one.
13:30 You should have been a Dentist
7:58 some could say he used vise to repair vise
Hi, you showed in some videos how you walk through a scrapyard. At all scrapyards I habe been they told me that they only sell to Bug companies. Do you have some recommendations near Frankfurt?
good brassing job it is the only way to fix the vice
I very much appreciate you mentioning the names of various things in german but It'd be way nicer of you if u also show us the pronunciation as well. I'm in the process of learning german and these translations are hard to find sometimes
try leo.org for special translations; they really have compendium of huge amounts of technical terms
Very nice, I like this content!
Could you give us tipps to get access to scrapyard or how u go there looking for stuff?
It seems that vises are your vice.
Erstklassige Arbeit, wie immer. Vielleicht ein Tip: Anstelle von WD40 benutze ich Mannol 9932...in jeder Hinsicht das bessere Mittelchen für die Arbeiten die du machst.
