Broken Swivel Vise Restoration

[@dumitrucolcova8164]

This vise will never resist to a real strong work.She will broke again at the first serious usage.Well, your vise is just like my English.

[@sreekumarUSA]

There was also no mention of the make of this vise, the country of origin, that is. Obviously a very bad casting or the muscle power of the last user! I broke my vise similar to this, me being a weak person, it was possible due to poor casting, not my weak muscle power.

I'm a new subscriber and think your work is good. Don't pay attention to the negative comments most of those people prob never restored anything in their life. And practice makes perfect. I'm sure u know what needs improvement and your doing the right thing by even restoring these parts. Keep it up.

[@davesherwood5500]

After seeing that welding job, I can understand why you didn't show clamping of anything. No Dude, Cast Iron Rods are available for Arc welding from just about every hardware store, and pre-heating and chamfering of the casting is a must, that job is not gonna hold.

[@MrBucala]

Plus, use of some Loctite instead of grease on the screws, some washers on the hold down nuts, the jaws have zero grip, and do not match on the top. C+

[@garyjones2582]

Very nice job.. Camera work is very good.. I do have one suggestion and it can actually save u some money.. Put away the WD-40 for squeaky door hinges and mix up a 50-50 batch of Acetone and Automatic Transmission fluid.. It makes WD-40 look like water.. spray it on heavily and let it soak up to 4 hrs before recording.. I noticed how heavily u applied the WD-40 and when you removed the screws the threads were still dry.. You're doing a fantastic job, keep it up...

Looks good. I suspect that you forgot to put the grid pattern on the jaws blocks. It may grip but any pounding will loosen too quickly. Longer bolts for base pedestal so you can rotate and not lose nuts when you need to adjust. My hands hurt after watching you sanding. Nice work.

I watched a similar video where someone did the same thing just coz he already had a vise but had a use for a smooth-jawed one too, maybe this dude was the same?

Вопрос в другом. После сварки ЭТО нагрузку держит? Или сразу по сварке отвалилось? Тогда ему и призма не нужна, а только внешний вид.

[@АлександрЮрьевич-н8ь]

Согласен 💯 %

[@f75gunslinger]

Easy with the bondo there dude...you just want to apply enough to fill the holes in. Otherwise you just make more work for yourself. The welding was...interesting. Not sure it will hold up to heavy use. Not sure why you filled the entire side with the lettering in with filler. You have a small die grinder/dremel. That's perfect for cleaning the letting out. Most of the chamfering you did on the sharp edges would have been cleaner using a file. Small die cutters are very hard to use to make a nice even chamfer. You also painted part of the bottom where the parts slide together. Keep working on your skills and aquire more tools...the right tools make all the difference. When fighting rusted/frozen bolts, stick to a 6 sided socket. 12 points will get you into trouble. Overall it came out pretty well. Take your time too...you already put that much time into it. Might as well put in a little bit more and have an outstanding finished product.

[@fm00078]

Possible he's using basic tools to show how it can be done with basic tools. Tho the Dremel is out of place here. Agreed, FILE IT under, file it.

That weld won’t hold beyond the first pinch of the vice jaws. In forty years of engineering I can truthfully say I’ve never seen anyone wrap what looked like a standard mild steel electrode in copper wire. You should have used a low hydrogen version, bevelling the edges prior to welding. Keep trying though, the rest was good, barring when you straightened that clamp bar on the jaw of the vice jaw rather than using the little anvil at the back . . .

[@osarostov]

He's an idiot.

[@Reman1975]

I did wonder what the deal was with the copper wound welding rod? Never seen that done before, and I feel I've probably used (Or at least seen) most of the tricks that do work on cast iron. Personally, I'd probably have ground the makers marks and logo off those recesses on the moving jaws sides, bevelled the edges of the break and brazed it, them made some steel plates that fit into the side recesses and Brazed those on too. It probably still wouldn't be as strong as a well prepped and executed stick weld, but it would be a damn sight easier for this guy to get right without filling the whole area with stress fractures.

[@freezemanrjbr]

Nasarov Method, about the fifties (1950 decade) www.alustir.com/english/did-you-know/nasarov-method/ I have a degree in Electric Engineering but I work as welder. This method was developed in Soviet Union to repair cast iron pieces without pre-heating.

[@Reman1975]

@@freezemanrjbr interesting reading there. It's defiantly a new concept to me. It seems they partly used this method, but didn't coat the hybrid rods in borax and sodium silicate. But surly, if this semi brazing method worked as well as welding pre heated cast iron we'd be able to buy pre wound and coated welding rods? I'm now really curious how strong their welds actually turned out?

[@freezemanrjbr]

@@Reman1975 I really prefer to pre heat and weld with a 7018... but all this people is saying that what he did doesn't exist, and it actually is an old method... These people, I think, never studied welding...
