All Things Jonny Episode 7 - THE BALLAST BOX of your Dreams!!

[@MrJoel12mi]

could always weld a couple of bolts to the box to hold the vice.

[@allthingsjonny4840]

Never even thought of that!!!

[@robertwikeljr-1522]

I'm guessing -- believe the base for vise is cast metal. It can be welded , BUT watch out for heat or stress cracks from vibration. Had an incident of a cast weld breaking and electric motor just missed my foot when it fell. Keep up the videos

[@allthingsjonny4840]

Thanks for the tip!! Hey, I'm back to making videos, and there are some additions to the ballast coming up!!! No issues with the vice as of yet... i use it even when the box isn't mounted to the tractor! Can't sharpen the chainsaw with out it!!

[@craigpierre2765]

It’s never just one thing in Jonny’s garage…always a project on the go!!

[@allthingsjonny4840]

You’re right!!! Just can’t stop!

[@tglstudio]

Love these!!!

[@RangerRage69]

I’m starting my ballast box build and found your channel. My welds are big and ugly too and mine hold MOST of the time.

[@allthingsjonny4840]

thanks for coming in and watching. have been away from the channel for a year!!! But I am back to the things I love now!!

[@Quilustrucu]

Thought you might add a chain box on top of your ballast box where the chainsaw motor rests when you sharpen the chain. The chainsaw would be level.

[@woodenstoolstudios7211]

Nice!!! Great idea.

[@allthingsjonny4840]

Yes great idea. I’m actually doing a part 2 to this video and working on a couple mods. This will be in the list for sure!!! Thanks!!

An old tool belt attached to the side of your box might be a good way to hold/hang your axe??? Follow me for more Ballast Box hacks!!!
