I have to say, having your little man there and letting him experience building and construction at such a small age is the stuff that warms my heart. I have no kids ... but I love kids... I have a Nephew and 4 nieces and when they were all small we worked on things and built stuff and they were inspired to do things because of it. Without getting into describing too many wonderful memories with teaching the kids I will just say "Well done" for sharing a great "Shop moment" with your young little person there... All the best.. ==BOZE==

[@patrickhalseth1632]

Coming from the perspective of an old cabinet maker, I have notes. 1. When face gluing sheets of plywood, just clamp it up with strongbacks, screws are a liability during machining and if something happens that's so catastrophic the glue joint fails, no amount of screws is going save you. 2. The knuckle of your handle should be solid maple or similar. The repetitive torsional load on the plywood will probably chowder out the hole in short order. Also add an o- ring to the ends of your handles so when they flop from end to end they have a soft landing. 3. The inability to tighten the screws independently is going to be limiting in certain situations. Maybe build some throw into the shaft if the center gear so it could be disengaged as needed? 4. This is more of an engineering thing so I admittedly speak with less authority but in low speed, high radial load applications I think bushings are preferable to bearings. And cheaper. Having said all that, great video and cool concept, thanks for sharing!

[@Anyone700]

I was thinking a lot of the same. This is an application where a 3D printed part, printed in the correct way, would be far surperior. With 3D printing you can have a continuous grain around the handle. Granted you would need to select the correct plastic, PC or PETG should work well in this application. As far as the bushings, he is using very large ball bearings. Any advantage you would get from plain bearings would likely be removed from not having continuous lubrication. The more egregious mistake here is that there are no ways. Having 3 screws, even if perfectly timed, does not make up for having proper ways. If he put 4x 30mm steel rods with 100MM bushings it would be much stiffer.

I have recently taken on becoming a DIY’er myself, and have built a few pieces of furniture for my house. So I’m always watching out for videos that catch my eye like this one did when it popped up in my suggested videos page. I gotta say that I hardly ever make it to the end of those videos which are similar to this video in length, because they lose my ADD attention span pretty early on. However your video of you making this gear bench screw clamp has now been added to my favorites on here. This video kept me glued to the screen and interested through out the entire video. I just wanted to say thank you for making and sharing this video with the rest of us, and also I wanted to let you know that I thought that you did an amazing job here. In my opinion I think it takes a lot of skill and experience to be able to produce a project to come out with that kind of precision and caliber of attention to detail. Such as you were able to display in your video......That I was able to watch until the very end!! Thanks for sharing!

[@RustyCarnahan]

Love everything about it, and I may have to build one myself. The only thing I may change is go to a single handle, driving the top center idler gear, because I'm afraid the two handles on either end would get in my way. Overall though, 10/10 on the build.

[@DIYBuilds]

I was going to do that but thought the convenience of one on each end of a long vise would be better. If you do it please email me a picture of it.

[@dumbstupidfalk]

The first thing I thought too. Even mechanically speaking this would be a much better solution: center gear driving the three screws allows for an equal length gear train to each of the screws, which means equal amount of backlash and load on the gears.

[@draganarc0131]

DIY Builds I was waiting for you to make the Center gear disengage so the vice could be canted slightly to grip slightly tapered or odd shaped projects. I have a commercial made one that’s chain drive and has that feature, very handy!!!!!

[@DIYBuilds]

I didnt think to add that feature since I've never needed it.

[@Marc9889]

Very nice job, and a great video. I would add that if you wanted to, you could deviate from a 1:1 gear ratio and a) increase leverage, and b) slightly reduce the size of the gear mechanism by moving the points of concentricity closer to each other. Of course, the tradeoff would be more rotations of the handle to achieve the same amount of travel. Very interesting video, thanks for posting.

@@christophermoore6110 No. The teeth of the wheels will last longer if there is less friction. Metal, wood, plastic.... without lubrication the wear will be more than without. Bees wax or candle wax is super cheap and really easy to apply. And it makes the gear last so much longer. So why wouldn't you do it?

[@telescopereplicator]

@@christophermoore6110 I think I know what you mean. These gears are not used in a mechanism that is under heavy load, a lot of the time. They only turn when the vise is being used.
