1971 American Pipe Vise Restoration - Restoration Videos
In this video, you will watch an Erie Tool Works branded American made pipe vise which was made in March 1971 get restored.
Are you ready to see everything possible to be done in a pipe vise restoration video be done in detail? I first start dismantling every piece in this vise, vise the which served many years but then were thrown aside. I immerse every single piece in rust remover and let it rest there for a day. The reason for this is because the product is made out of steel. If it was cast iron I would let it sit for a less amount of time. After I took them out of the rust remover, all the pieces were completely free of rust. After a brief brushing and then neutalizing with water, I sandblast them. In meanwhile, I used my mobile phone as a second camera, I hope you like it. After sandblasting, I realized 71-3 was written on the inside of the piece holding the top jaw. I understood that it was made in March 1971. Not too old, but a beautiful 53 year old vise. I file out the pins which are used to lock in the jaws. And I make the new ones as hidden nuts. Since the handle was bent, I wanted to use the ball parts with the new shaft I am going to make. But because there were deformations and tears on the old ball parts I needed to make a new pair, thus I manufacture a complete new handle out of 3 new parts, made out with a hidden bolt-nut technique. I fill out the later drilled hole on the bottom part of the body with MIG weld. After that, I level out the irregularities found on the both upper and lower parts by heating them up, then doing a leveling. Finally I countersink the bolt holes and sandblast to get it ready for the painting. I disassamble the handle where you use it to squeeze the vise to a table by heating it up, then get it ready for the painting. With the other three parts ready, all the pieces are now ready for the painting session. And I use hammered red paint to paint them. I paint them with a regular brush and a paint roller brush. After the paint dries out, I cold-blue the moving parts. I knew those parts before, so I taped them. I restore the teeth on the bigger shaft and then shine it up to a mirror shine. And after, I do the same with the smaller shaft which helps fastening to a table. Since one small piece is missing from this part, I make a new fitting one. I design it so that two pins would be helping me fix the piece in. I start restoring the upper and the lower jaws. But because these jaws were very hard, I had hard time sanding them by hand. So I used the milling machine. I got a perfect finish on those with final surface grinding, got them perfect as I wanted. I decide not to use the old nuts and bolts. Non of them are original, and they don’t fit well. I begin making square nuts and bolts. I make 8 nuts, 8 bolts total. It was satisfying to create square nuts and bolts which I made in a historically correct way, design-wise.
There will be lots of lathing scenes, I think you will like them. The rough lines of the project were like this. After every piece were ready, I assembled them to reach the picture I wanted to see. I hope this outcome fulfills you. If you liked it, please do like the video, leave a comment and if you are not subscribed, subscribe. I try to read and answer every comment you leave to me. See you in the next project. Greetings to everyone.

Rất thích xem kênh của bạn , kỹ năng phục hồi đồ cũ của bạn rất tuyệt vời nhưng video của bạn ít quá , mong bạn ra nhìu video hơn nữa❤❤❤
Always a good day when you have a new video out. Workmanship is incredible. Thanks for sharing your talents!
Thank you so much Dave
This guy deserves at least 1 million subs.
Thank you, I hope in time
Had exactly the same pipe vice in my old workshop, although I preferred to use the chain vice as it gripped better without burring the pipe too much. Fantastic restoration, I'm sure they didn't leave the factory with such quality finishing!
Thanks a lot
There’s so many fake restoration channels out there that I am blessed to have found yours. You’ve shown me what real artistry is.
Thanks
He is not "restoring" anything here. He is repairing. It is misleading. Think about it. I am not at all saying that his "repairs" are bad; not in the slightest. All I am saying is that he thinks he's restoring when, in fact, that is not the case. Anytime you have or want to make a new part you lose the moniker of restoration. It is no longer original.
One thing I believe, some pieces were made.
The rest is all doubts.
The author made the piece rustier (easy for these guys make it).
Did he bend some surfaces? Hammered it or applied heat to bend it easier?
I don't know if he is the person doing the new pieces, he never shows his face.
With so many scam videos, each day is harder to believe in really and true restorations, thanks to the scammers.
Lol he ripped off the entire style of video, name and logo from the My Mechanics channel.
@@Nomzai ...I am unsure of the age of his channel, but I would tend to agree with you if this channel is younger.
This pipe vice went from (probably) functional to a work of art and a thing of beauty. I enjoyed the restoration.
I'm glad you liked it.
Some will say it now looks better than when new. Those people are correct. It's a piece of art, worthy to be on display at The Louvre. 👍👍👍
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
I'll never not be dazzled by the artistry of these restorations.
This guys work is really something else. I don't know if I want to call it high level craftsmanship or art. Every piece he does looks like it could sit in a gallery. He has ruined other DIY channels!
Nice, made in sweet home Pennsylvania. Right around the time I was too.
🙏🏻thanks sir
one of your best, MM. As ever, a tribute to your skills but also to the people who designed and manufactured these excellent devices.
Thank you so much
Great work by a master craftsman. Thanks!
Thanks Jim
Very detailed and very clean restauration! Great video, cut and editing, too! 👍
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Awesome resto work on a great old tool! Great skills! Cheers! 😀👍🛠️🔧
Thanks a lot
Like, just how many different kinds of files DO YOU HAVE?!?!?!
Great resto!
I think I have more than 100 files that are not the same.

Elinize sağlık. Mükemmel bir video daha.
Çok teşekkür ederim çok sağolun eksik olmayın 🙏🏻
Stunning!
Thanks Andrew
That was a great restoration! Your attention to detail is second to none! I wish we could get that great Hammerite paint here in the USA.
Thank you. I heard there is no hammerite america. But this red hammerite is not available in any country other than England.
Admiro muchísimo tu trabajo. Y una de las cosas que más me gusta es que, a diferencia de otros restauradores, mantienes tu espacio ordenado y tus herramientas impecables. Un placer ver tus videos!
You are sensitive and meticulous enough to see some details. Thank you.
A pure Master class restoration ❤
Thank you
Üstad yine mükemmel bir işçilik 👏👏👏
Teşekkür ederim 🙏🏻
I was so excited to get on UA-cam and see a new video from you! I love how your stuff is so shiny you have to blur your reflection in it. Amazing job! Thanks for sharing it with us.
Thank you so much
Yeah, I was concerned at first and thought it was for fear of being demonetized because he was squeezing them in the vice. It took me longer than it needed to realize it was the reflection.
So, One thing I really like about your channel is that it's genuine... I see a lot of restoration videos where the person clearly made the piece they are restoring way worse just to make a video. It's very cheesy to me. Please don't ever do that! I'd rather not see a video and wait a while than see a bunch of videos that were clearly staged just to make a video. Don't ever change!!! Love your channel.... My interest is woodworking videos but your channel is really wonderful to watch!
I have paid attention to what you said for 5 years and in my 40 projects. By the way, it is a pleasure to see people like you who know what they want.
What you are referring to are the “fraudsters” who only want us to watch the adverts in their video and not what they are committing fraud with 😠, this restorer is genuine 🤗
Better than new! Waiting for more of the Mazda restoration videos. I could watch this guy all day! Lol
I guess that car wasn't a Mazda. And I guess I'm not that guy either. I am sad.

You'll also note that he didn't do a taste test of a beer in this video --- I'm kidding, I'm kidding! ;-)
When I first discovered Meine Mechanicher's channel, I tought it was another channel of My Mechanics. I'm glad these are from different people as both channels shows great craftmanchip and talent in restauration.
@@LelianWeatherwax, me too, I totally assumed he had two channels!
That came out good, I saw it was made in 1971.....one year younger than me. If only I could be restored as well as those tools. Excellent work.
you are still new, best regards sir
What an artist! Absolutely perfect on every detail!
🙏🏻
I agree. This is more than just high level craftsmanship, this guy is an artist. He has directly influenced me with his eye for detail.
Herzamanki gibi büyük emek sonucu ortaya mükemmel bir iş çıkartmışsınız hocam. Ellerinize sağlık .
Çok teşekkür ederim
Show peice vise no doubt. Beautiful finishing as always!
Thanks Matt
Your hard work has rendered the vise to be a show piece
A labour of love and a thing of beauty! I love watching your restorations
Thanks sir
Great to see you back :)
🙏🏻✋
Nice finish, but why did you pop a bolt into the hook side of the pipe vice? When I was an apprentice electrician we used to cut threads onto steel conduit and screw it together (I hear the young ones gasping, oh no hard work!!) and that hook end was always free to hook and unhook to hold and release the pipes.
What you describe makes sense for a quick move. but when I do it it makes sense for slow motion. In short, both are correct.
And having the two holes was so you could have either left or right hand opening.
I'm not sure you understand, the hook is on one side of the vise and will either facilitate the use of the hook or will just lock the head in place. It cannot be changed for left or right handed use.@@iwb316
Even the very first photo shows there's no bolt next to the hook and one is never needed.
Que buen episodio. En restauración y filmación. Mis respetos y admiración.
Muchas gracias Guataco ✋
WOAU! This was like magic! Absolutely amazing work!!!
🙏🏻
What a delicate job!...
Another great result MM. 😊
Datsun 👌
We've MISSED YOU!!
Sincerely, work.
Thank you Truman
Wow, another perfect rebuild!!!
Thanks
Very good job man
Thanks
Stunning restoration. Incredible attention to detail. Thanks for sharing.
🙏🏻
Şahane bir işçilik.
Teşekkürler
Marvellous - you couldn't buy a new one that is that attractive and functional.
This project was exceptionally good. You have the best tools.
Thanks sir
Tell me I'm not the only one who saw the red frog 32:30
😅👌
Great restoration, looks brand new.
Thanks
Lovely work, as usual. Man, after you bought that beautiful vintage car you just forgot us, yours long term fans.
I'm not him, I guess there was confusion. And as for that car. I think he got into trouble.
I believe you're referring to My Mechanics.
Yes, I messed up! Sorry for that. But you too are great, the perfectionism of you both (besides the similar name) confused me. Congratulations from Minas Gerais and do not disappear, as he did. : )
I have a couple of these vises. I grew up in Erie not too far from the Reed factory, they are actually still in business.
Beautiful, wow!
🙏🏻
Brilliant as always.
🙏🏻
Absolutely fantastic and amazing end result as usual
Thanks sir
Thanks for the new video! Awesome job as always. Until now I have never yelled at a UA-cam workshop video. When you were cleaning up the jaws, I started saying “you better not blue them. They better get plated.!” Thankfully all is well - the jaws are plated and my blood pressure is down.
It's nice to be of the same opinion as you.
Absolutely brilliant 👍👍🙏🙏
Thanks sir
The best restoration channel. 10/10
Thank you so much
Beautiful...as always.
Thanks
Great work with precision
Thanks a lot
Spectacular! Better than new!
🙏🏻
He's back! 👏
Hi alex
@@meinemechaniker Hi. Toll, dass es mal wieder ein Video zu einer Restauration gibt. Dachte Du kümmerst Dich jetzt nur noch um das Auto. Wobei ich diese Videos auch super unterhaltsam finde. Mach weiter so. Die Art wie Du alles präsentierst ist einfach nur perfekt. Danke!!!
@@alex.germany Ich bin kein Schweizer 😉
@@meinemechaniker 😂 Oups. Ist das Zufall mit den Kanalnamen 🙂. Egal. hab sie beide aboniert...
@@alex.germany Mich hat das Wort Feinmechaniker inspiriert
Her zaman bu tür videoları başkası yapar biz izlerdik. Ürünleri görene kadar Türk olduğunu bile anlamadım.Yaptığınız iş çok profesyonelce. Emeğinize elinize saglık.İyi ki varsınız.
Teşekkür ederim eksik olmayın
Wonderful work.
Thanks a lot
As good as new maybe better. Thank you for sharing.👍
Merci Dennis
Awesome restoration!
Thanks Frick
Very lovely❤
And now it's absolutely useless. Who would dare to use such a fine piece of art?
🙏🏻
Fantastic job! 👍
Thanks
Watching this from Erie PA
🤗
Nice vise!
👌
Finally something from my favorite channel! Regards! 👍😊
Thanks Sarka
How is working with Datsun going? Will we see something?😊
@@sarka_farkawrong channel lol....
@@GWN_Garage I thought Meine Mechaniker and My Mechanics were one owner's channel 🤦😁 PS The quality of workmanship is very similar.
@@sarka_farka easy mistake to make friend 😅 Very similar names and video style 😄 Cheers
Very nice work M.M.... Its always good to see you post another video... I wish you made more, but i know it must take a great deal of time to put together a video of this quality.. Well you take care my friend and tell Old Hand I said hello....
Thank you my friend, I will convey your greetings.
Outstanding resto on this pipe vise. I’ve fitted a few miles of pipe with a vise like that but none as nice as yours. 👍🏼
🙏🏻
I hate when people recreate parts unnecessarily. People want to see what is there being restored. It does not need to be absolutely perfect. But it should be as original as possible.
👍
Awesome work! 👍🏻
Thanks 🙏🏻

Teşekkürler
Gut gemacht 🙌
Danke
There was so much the do with that vice. That must’ve taken an incredible amount of time to restore. But, you cease to surprise. Beautiful job. I briefly thought there would be a problem when you started hammering on the heated casting to re-round the base. But, everything worked out. See you on the next project.
thanks. This product is cast steel. so you don't need to worry. I'm glad you liked it.
Hello mister beautiful restoration beautifully restored good job well done
Thanks sir
Amazing and detailing job my friend congratulations
Thanks mate
Çok profesyonel, çok titiz ve temiz çalışmalarınız için tebrikler usta🙏🏼 Video editleriniz ve çekimleriniz için de ayrıca tebrik ederim. Kaliteli bir dizi bölümü tadında izledim. Sağlıcakla kalın.👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇹🇷
Teşekkür ederim 🙏🏻
Absolutely fantastic restoration you made it brand new vise great work bro 👍💯
Thanks mate 🙏🏻
You have been gone for too long. Welcome back.
Thanks Dale
Good stuff, and you didn’t paint the stamped letters on the clamp which I think is hugely important. So many restorers do that, and it makes the product look like a sore toe.
thanks dude. Do you like the unpainted letters?
@@meinemechaniker Yes, I can’t remember seeing anything like that painted from the factory. It takes a perfectly restored item look overdone. It also doesn’t look like something that meant to be functional. Hey, but that’s only my opinion 🙂.
Please make more videos I really enjoy them,thank you…
I'm glad you liked it
Welcome back. Great to see someone restore something to real working order.
Jolie travail
31:30 da uzakdoğu restorasyon videolarından bir örnek izliyorum sandım bi an 😁
Emeğinize sağlık. 😄
😅 teşekkürler
Nice restoration 👏👏
Thanks
Nice 🏴👍
Thanks kevin you are here again
Who else thinks camera 2 is better? Great work on that vice.
Iphone 😅There is a lot of grain but. Thanks Bruce
anyone else notice that he messed up by adding a bolt to the body on the side with the hook? It's supposed to be a pin that can be removed so the vise can open to accommodate longer pipes.
The person who wants it will not use the bolt he does not want. For a right or left handed person. You don't need to get excited.
@@meinemechaniker the irony of telling someone to not get excited with the intention of upsetting them. learn to take some criticism and maybe don't get so excited
@@biomewanderer6312 You are right in your suggestion. 🙏🏻
Any fire engine would be proud to have that mounted on its back bumper!
😅
Gostava mais tal como estava..😉
Better than new
Glückwunsch 👏
Dank
Well done!
Thanks Alex
I think it's easier for you if you take the pieces in the sandblaster in your hand. and when you do things like straighten the lever from the screw clamp. Make it hot so that the iron is not stressed
Are you German??
Harika 👏🏻👏🏻🇹🇷
Teşekkürler
Have to stop calling yourself a mechanic and start callijg yourself a necromancer the way you bring these things back to life. P.s. the red looks absolutely amazing
Thank you so much Kyle
