Go hug your dad and thank him for being in your life, you two are very blessed

[@noproblem2big337]

Best comment I've read today 👍

[@reed1541]

I am thoroughly impressed. And I don't impress easily.

[@carlmcgee1623]

Just now seeing this and it looks like some guys learned some SICK skills early on. Keep it up. Knowledge is good.

[@anthonystrunk5360]

Awesome job! You guys are very fortunate to have access to a complete machine shop at your age.. learn all you can.. I'm expecting great things from you guys..well done!

[@mftmachining]

Excellent job, guys....as a man now over 40 years in metalworkin, i have to say you did well and learned a lot. Thats the way to go. When i was your age, i wasn´t by far so good as you, even as a son of a tool and die maker. Respect.

[@davidcoats1037]

Impressive skills and an awesome vice stand that any metal worker would love to own. Great job! 👍🏼

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

Thank you very much!

[@thunderstruck1078]

Beautiful work boys. Excellent welds. Your dad taught you well.

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

Yes, thank you

[@DjeehBear]

Nice work! Makes me kinda jealous! Having access to a complete shop and the knowledge! I assume some father/mentor was somewhere around as you made it. What a blessing! I guess by now as this is 3yo, your mig welding must be just perfect.

[@kurthanson4106]

That's some real fine welding, Guys... Very well done.

[@jblueforge3131]

Great video fellows I just realized you never finished the other one I'd love to see a video. And I'd love to see a shop tour video of your guys's machine shop

[@douglasthompson2740]

Very nice job. Not many young men are fortunate enough to have the resources you do. But then perhaps not many would utilize them as you are doing or learn as much as you obviously have and are it is my guess going to learn.

[@johnblackburn7673]

Very clever young man. You have shown skill levels equivalent to most experienced fabricators. Excellent

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

Thank you very much!

[@kentstringer4160]

Nice! Level to orient angle cuts ! First time I saw that. Linseed oil on metal ! Plumb bob to align angled legs! Pre heating thick metal plate before weld! Cutting copes in pipe with a mill? Spraying saw blade. Lathe work.Young men working together. I’m going down to my shop and weep. So ashamed of my vise stand!

[@rasheedlash7094]

انتم صغار لاكن لديكم مقدرات عالية وهذا يعود لفريقكم الجميل اولا معلمكم كل التقدير والاحترام له ثم اصراركم ومحبتكم لهذه المهنة ثانيًا واما الاخير كل التقدير لهذه الورشة الجميلة وانا متاكد من تعب الوالد دمتم بخير

[@danbell3827]

Great work, guys, and an awesome looking stand. This looks like pretty much exactly what I had in mind for mine. I may even have seen a photo of it somewhere that I based my idea off of. I wanted to share a couple of tips that could have made some of the steps easier. For lining up the legs, when using a plumb bob like that, stick a clear container of water on the line, and drop the bob into it. It stops it from swaying around as much. A laser level would work even better, they are really handy things to have around. For surfacing larger areas, a handheld belt sander with the right belt does wonders. A stack of sanding discs, the ones you put a solid backer on, also work great, but they do tend to come apart if you get rough on them. Lastly, when using hole saws in the cordless drill, brace it on the OUTSIDE of your leg. Those suckers love to grab, same with larger bits, and taking that battery to the nuts isn't fun. Funny to watch, not so fun to have it happen. Again, great job, and I look forward to seeing the 2nd one.

[@douglasfathers4848]

One of the best stands I have seen guys , I just bout a small leg vice and was looking for ideas on making a stand , And your stand wins 100% thank you for the inspiration. Cheers.

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

Thanks a lot we use it a bunch and so far it has been great.

[@DavidKirwanirl]

[@scotthansen4073]

@@GreenridgeMetalWorks Well enjoy your new shop and I know I will look forward to the "build" video when you guys get it posted !!! Not sure how you could top the shop where you shot the first video, but if you can then I know I am not the only jealous one out here !!! Have a safe move and I'll be waiting !!!

[@coen555]

You boys have skillz. Good build, wish I owned one just the same.

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

Thank you very much!

[@noproblem2big337]

Great job I'm impressed, I wanted to see part 2 but not done yet, not posted much after this masterpiece...I hope everything is ok and hopefully I will see more from this channel!

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

Sorry, we've been building a new shop. Not a lot of time to make videos lately. Thanks for watching!

[@matthewroszkowski4674]

great job gentleman

[@InstrucTube]

Nicely done guys. I'm happy that you filled the legs in, most people that I see using post vises don't seem to weigh them down, and that kind of defeats the purpose of them. If they aren't anchored down, they aren't really doing their full job. :) Can't wait to see the other one.

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

Thanks a lot! By the way, were planning to anchor it to the floor as soon as both are done.

[@InstrucTube]

@@GreenridgeMetalWorks I figured as much, since you left tabs with anchor holes on the bottom. It'll do pretty good work just weighed down as it is, but if you can truly stabilize it then that vise will serve you well.

[@howder1951]

Very nice work, and very interesting project. I am extremely impressed with your designing and execution skills, cutting no corners shows you are disciplined far beyond your years. You fellows look like you are on track to be the next Diresta, or Fireball tool works. Regards and cheers!

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

Thank you very much!

Awesome work for young men ..ya'll have been taught well or very blessed in your skills .,, I would hire ya'll in my shop...in a minute..good luck in the Future..

[@djdanzy]

Im curious to know how this stand is going? Whats it like was it heavy and sturdy enough? Thanks

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

I think it's the best one we've used. It's heavy enough and stable enough that we haven't needed to bolt it down like we planned.

[@Пурик-о3г]

А вот возьму и подпишусь😁👍

[@arnemier5732]

Great Job! One Question (I am a novice!): Why do you preheat the plate before welding? Ist it because the material is so thick, that it would cool down too fast to make a long lasting welding ?

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

Yes that's right. My welder is not very big so I need to preheat the thick plate or the weld penetration will not be deep enough and the plate would quickly cool and that make the weld brittle. Thanks for watching!

[@sonnypena194]

When's part 2

[@louisaziz1235]

Hey guys... First time watching your videos. I was given an old post vise and need some advice. Is it necessary to mount it on a steel base, or can I mount it on an 8''by8'' post? I would be sure to have a good base but other than that I am at a loss. Could you help, please?

[@GreenridgeMetalWorks]

I see people using wood post successfully all the time, as long as the foot of the post is resting on a solid floor and the post won't move while in use it should be fine.
