Ive been working on mine on and off forever. Lots of binding and slop and modifications and wood splitting and rocking and finally wood clamping that pops right out. The original block split when I was cutting in the dado slot for the plastic rail I installed to limit the rocking and twisting. Maybe i just have unreasonable expectations for clamping. I swear to christ i wish i never got it in my head to build this thing lol. Came here for some tips but ive done most of the stuff you did. So frustrating. UPDATE: after I wrote this I went back into the garage and tried one last time and BOOM it worked. Thank the gods.

[@rickhayhoe]

Thank your perseverance instead.

[@What_Other_Hobbies]

LH thread would be great for this style so you turn the handle clockwise to advence the wagen.

[@wooddogg8]

I ordered the kit as well as a hand wheel and one if those 1" wood owl drill bits. I'll get a whole set if I like it, which I Imagine I will. I noticed today that Harbor Freight has these now (the bits, that is), whatever you think of the Freight co... It is what it is. Always wanted one of these wagon vises, this video really sold me! Thanks man!!

[@DIYBuilds]

Great outcome for the workbench. I wonder if you could get a left hand threaded rod for this so you can maintain traditional righty tighty lefty loosey operation of the vise.

[@JayBates]

I'm sure they could be sourced but a reverse thread rod and square nut would increase the cost a bit. No need for that in my opinion.

[@jackknows6509]

Glad you saw that as well.

Hey Jay man. This wagon vise u made look like a very easy install. i HAVE SOME OF THOSE PARTS ALREADY SITTING OUT IN MY SHOP. i8'M KEEPING THEM ASIE UNTIL i FINALLY GET ROUND TO BUILDING A WORKBENCH LIKE THE ONE U HAVE. Great job man. Love the easy of the project. Well u made it look easy I should say..

Thanks I am definitely adding one to my bench.

[@jamesperrin3762]

Great to see a simple kit available at last. A few months too late for my workbench build, I made a mini one from a PoS wood work vice.

[@rickhayhoe]

Glad I ran across this vid, Jay. Will use the Taytools kit and accessories. They're a great outfit.

[@kayakdog121]

Nice work, and great result. Its refreshing that you admit where you made a flub and how you corrected it. That happens to everyone, but some would just edit that out. Credibility is more important than perfection.

[@anthonydtobias]

Nice! Pretty cool and inexpensive solution! Thanks for sharing this! I'm planning on building a new bench sometime here soon and this looks like something I would really like to add to it.

[@SandyMasquith]

Thanks Jay. This is something I’m planning for my next workbench build. A wagon vise just seems to be really useful in a lot of situations.

[@ErikBongers]

I wonder if the sliding block won't start to lean back after some usage, since there's only one nut in the middle that works as a pivot point. 2 bushings on the sliding block might be needed after a while.

[@TR-yn5tb]

Cool addition to the workbench Jay and I enjoyed your video. You continue to impress me with the quality of your videos, your work and your honesty as you build. By the way, good to see a guy from Livonia doing so well in the warmer climate .... Go “D” teams!

I'm thinking that the gap for the vice could be left open during the building of the bench top so you don't have to cut it out later.

[@chaseweeks2708]

Hmm, would probably be even better if I trim off that corner of the end so that the end block is flush with the end of the bench.

[@thijs199]

there is one issue with this, you can not clamp a piece of wood against the leg of your table, because your thread is in the way

Quick Q: What's the difference between a Wagon Vice & a Tail Vice?

[@edgarsoto4277]

Eres un maestro, gracias, por compartir

[@kuffyswoodwork]

Great bench upgrade. I have forgotten what life was like before having a decent tail vice in my own bench 🤣👍

do they have a reverse thread so you can screw handle right to tighten?

Nice 😊

[@johnburens3395]

Really nice! I have been thinking about a wagon vice for my Moravian workbench, this might be it.

[@wolfman75]

Great Job!!! Well Done!!! Thank You Jay!!! 👍😎😃✌

[@kenerickson4923]

Thanks for the plans and guide. Fortunately I'm building the bench from scratch and don't have to go through the steps of cutting out the old bench top. I ripped 2x6 stock in half and used the flat edges at the top side. My moving block and gap is 4.5" wide (3 thicknesses of 2x stock) and I have 2 dog holes in the moving block. Doing the construction on a new bench is MUCH easier since I can drill all the holes at the drill press. I made square dog holes in the bench by cutting 3/4" x 3/4" dados in the 2 outer boards taped and clamped together. That gave me 3" between holes. This section of my bench is about 10" wide, so it will go through my thickness planer. I'll be making another half of the bench top with a twin-screw side vise and will have a 1.5: gap between the 2sections to allow for clamps to go through the center - like a Robou bench.

[@tasteapiana]

Great REAL WORLD project here, Jay. I like what you did and how you did it, to the point and no glitzy showy stuff. I use a very similar wing nut (speed handle, some call it) for my carving set ups. I'm almost certain those are made by Peerless (mine are). Jergens and Gibraltar make similar two pronged handles that do the exact same thing but I prefer the Peerless models. If you do any 'clean work' around them (any model) make sure to wipe them down really good and give them a sealer coat of something tough like a flooring poly. They're all cast and the dark zinc/iron surface is never baked in properly, left un-coated that powdery residue will get on your hands and transfer nasty smudge marks onto anything you touch after handling them - clothing, your face, veneers, anything you really really really don't want messed up in any way, it's inevitable. I think they're made with the intention of their being used in machine shops where such cleanliness is thought of as like LOL, RIGHT, SURE, BUDDY, WE'LL GET RIGHT ON THAT by default.

[@Malba1776]

[@TimRoyalPastortim]

I have a wagon vice from a veneer press screw that This would be an improvement on Thanks Jay

[@plugger410]

Just so I know, what is the benefit of using this as opposed to just mounting a regular bench vise on the end of the bench that has a little pop-up dog. Won’t that still allow you to pin the work down to the bench to do face work?

[@tonyennis1787]

Why is the screw not centered on the sliding block?

[@amareshpereira]

Amazing! Thanks for sharing!

[@Handcraftedcc]

How important is it that the vice gap be 2.5 in wide? Is it fine to go wider, like 3in? That way you can just leave a gap of 2 boards in the glueup

[@andypire6278]

Great option for a vise. I think you may have mixed up the grain direction vise block.

[@MrMarkpeggy]

Very nice 👌. Thanks Jay 😊

[@edwinleach7401]

[@pmdinaz]

[@eizzle78]

I built my bench from your plans but I added a a wagon vise during construction.

[@beemanrunning977]

Excellent addition to the bench. One question, if you reversed the threaded rod, would a clockwise rotation of the "adjustment dial" move the block toward the center of the table? The existing counterclockwise rotation seems backward to me. Perhaps it's just me. Thanks

[@davidseslar5798]

Reversing the threaded rod does not reverse the thread pitch. One needs a left-hand threaded rod to do this (standard threading is right-handed). A better kit for a non-travelling-rod wagon vise would include a LH-threaded rod and nut with Acme threads for faster vise travel. I'm using the term "non-traveling rod" for this type of design where the block with the threaded nut travels along the threaded rod which rotates in a fixed position in relation to the bench top. The other design type has the rod terminate in the travelling block and has the nut captured into the end cap. In this design, the rod and hand wheel extends out further from the end of the bench as the block is retracted to open the vise.

[@davestoltzfus4417]

Great video. Love the hat too! 👍

[@James_T_Kirk_1701]

Uaa as I was going to buy this from Tay Tools until I was the direction of the threads. That’s a no go for me.

[@CHUCKYCHUCKYBOBUCY]

If an end vice is not an option, I recommend a Veritas "wonder dog". One additional benefit is that you can use it anywhere along your bench whenever convenient, rather than only at the end.

[@PrattMadeThat]

Hey Jay, what are your thoughts on the Taytool Hand Planes?

[@kosmolab66]

Ciao Jay, sei un grande hai fatto un ottimo lavoro, un salutone dall'Italia .-

[@jackspeer2127]

Very unlike Taylor to send you the wrong screw but it looks like you got a left handed thread. That's why you have to turn the crank counter clockwise to tighten the vise - backwards. Nice build nonetheless.

[@JayBates]

This isn't the wrong screw. It was the one offered at the time of me building it.

[@mikelleafar2029]

Chévere amigo

[@benjaminkaufmann7784]

Is there any reason why you didn't cut a recess so the end could be flush? I might have to try this.

[@JayBates]

Extra work for no benefit.

[@JohnColgan.]

Nice addition to a workbench. You'll wonder why you didn't include it on original build, but you will find it very useful now

[@dannyhale7645]

Great video. I paused to see what that plane you were using is. Taytools 5½? Is there going to be a review video on that bad boy? It's pretty. I'd like to know how you like it.

[@grahamhillier8513]

Why did you not just add a tail vice with a dog hole in the face block?

[@HWCism]

Nice job, thanks

[@RXRSawdustStation]

Nice kit, Jay! Thanks for bringing that to us. Is that threaded rod threaded backward? Turning counterclockwise tightens the vise?

[@JayBates]

The treads are the regular direction. No need to spend more for reverse threads. It's easy to use.

[@scotthart3621]

Wonderful video! Is it possible to do this without having to add an end block and just install the wagon handle flush with the end of the workbench? I ask because I'm designing my new workbench and would like to incorporate this from the beginning.

[@jodytho]

"Now the part that resembles traditional dental work." 😆

[@philshock3805]

Just looking over your plans. You list 3/4 screws in the material list for installing drawer slides. Did I miss something or are you just checking to see if people pay attention? lol

Hahaha. I used a template. Might have missed a line to delete. I'll check.

[@JayBates]

[@mccarthydesign1429]

[@tonybaggett1984]

Is there any advantage to this wagon vise over the under-mount quick release vise? It has a place for dogs and do what this one does plus can clamp by itself. Just curious.

[@JayBates]

Just another cost effective solution.

[@David-fv7zg]

Wondering if you would consider an alternative build similar to the Will Myers Moravian bench where the moving stop is housed in a narrow dado slot and mounted from the bottom?

[@timhofstetter5654]

How can you tolerate having your shop so tidy? Doesn't keeping it tidy eat more of your shop time than actual work does?

[@JayBates]

Nah. And it definitely gets messed up often. If everything has a home then it's easy to keep it clean.

[@timhofstetter5654]

@@JayBates ...but why would you do it? Keep it clean, I mean? How can you keep track of where everything is if it isn't spread all over every horizontal surface? I don't clean until I really have to. That way it costs me very little total time and I know exactly where everything is.
