Very ingenious, turning scrap into useful items.

Always interesting to watch. Thank you for working with your hands and recycling, repurposing, and reusing.

Отличная идея!!! Молодец!!! И как рождаются такие идеи?!

[@alexvonbosse5090]

I like it very much when someone sees the options available to repurpose components of a broken item. Most people would throw the broken jack in the garbage without even thinking about what the intact items could be used for. Nice job. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!

[@chrisgraham2904]

So True! The 50 cent jack is damaged and no longer safe or useful for it's original intended purpose, but the machined components within are still in excellent condition. Those components would take hours to machine and produce and they would probably cost you $30 to $40 to buy, if they were available. Very creative re-purposing and a very useful addition to a work bench.

[@petercarey7133]

same. esp. with safety first, proper tools,ingenuity and of course a broken article. peace

[@stevebabiak6997]

Chris Graham - Harbor Freight has a scissors jack for between $20 and $30 IIRC on the price, plus they always have a 20% off coupon

[@stevebabiak6997]

Chris Graham - I just remembered that a few years ago my wife’s old car needed a replacement scissors jack. I picked one up at the nearest automobile salvage yard for $5. So they can be readily acquired for an inexpensive price.

This is good if you have the tools to make the project. We had benches that had all this in Jr high shop. High school shop also had benches with the holes and metal inserts. I like the wooden inserts but you must have rock Maple or other hardwood.

Sometimes I watch YT videos and fast forward to the end because I just want to see how it ends. But your videos are more fun to watch all the way through because I like to see HOW you get to the end. Plus, you know when to FF the video and when to slow down. One thing I would add to your idea, and that is to make several kinds of tabletop accessories to hold different things. The wooden pegs you made are fine, but different (I will call them holders) holders can be fitted into the holes and custom made for different shapes. Additionally, I would not have made them out of wood, because I can see where they could shear off if you tighten too much.

[@frankdyck2583]

I watch the Handcraft videos by getting to the end. only because I don't know what he's making.

[@HeatMyShorts]

I usually skip to the end first to see what's to be made; and then watch the build afterwards.

[@cozzyinternet4706]

hahahah I guess we all were kids once - - skip to the ends of our story books just to find out how the story ends......and then summarise from there! haahah

[@Bassinman200]

The wooden 'Holders' (shown in this particular instance) are basically known as 'Dogs' in woodworking. At least that was what trade woodworking during 4 years of Jr. High and High School taught me. A 'Holddown' uses the same holes as a 'Dog' but fit ecentrically so that they dont slip. Of course trade anything in school is now a thing of the past, and anyone wanting to learn a real trade has to go to a specific "Vocational" school outside of the Jr. and High Schools. I took both wood and metal shops in school. At least I know which end of a chisel is used to cut, and which end of a screwdriver drives. And that if a nut won't fit a bolt it's possible that one or the other is 'left hand' thread, and if you turn the nut over it still won't fit the bolt. I had a 'stupidvisor' tell me to try that once - he had a BA but lacked common sense and common knowledge. I told him to try it and see if he could get it to work because I knew that it wouldn't. I believe we are all being 'dumbed down' in our society, in EVERY aspect of life. *****A bench dog is an accessory used on a woodworking workbench to allow clamping of wooden items while being worked or planed. Dog in general is something which holds. At its most basic a bench dog is simply a peg which is installed in a corresponding dog hole in the top of a bench. Wikipedia****

[@m.b.82]

I skip to the end so to make sure its worth my time.

Great idea. Good project for my workshop. My only change would be to try and make a protection to prevent dust, chips and small hardware to get into the rail where the wooden block slides. It might be a nightmare to get out. Love the idea, thank you for the video.

How interesting it was that you produced such a product from Jack Machine. We saw a very interesting idea in this video. We are waiting for your next educational videos.

fantastic idea! I enjoyed it a lot! I think myself : Wouldn't there be a possibility to fit a plastic lid inside of the mechanism so that the wood chip/wood dust to get in ? I wonder it is a bit difficult to keep its compartment clean. What do you think about ? Anyway, your job is perfect! Congrats!

I've done my share of fabricating so on that note my hats off to you. The part I laughed about was the level of skill it takes to perform some of the fabrications. (Things done by hand) not everyone's going to be able to do it.

[@runsunpan6505]

Absolutely. It looks easy but if it were me, I would have ruined it couple of times over.

[@fernandorosales2418]

Anyone can learn these skills. All it takes is a DESIRE to learn. No one is born knowing how to use a welder or other machine equipment. It's all learned. For the people out there that can't do this, I feel that they just haven't TRIED. Haven't given it an honest attempt. Yeah, you're gonna ruin a few pieces on your way, but that's ok, that's how you learn. There was a time in our country that ALL men were handy. You had to be in order to survive. Now, less than half the population can change a flat tire on their car. Is this a societal problem, or a skill problem?

I’m blown away by the creative use of discarded objects. Aside from welding, it’s all tools I have available. How are you able to measure and execute so precisely? you made drilled 3x into that wooden block and created a perfect intersection that lined up with both that nut and the threading. Then freehand benchdog holes! I can’t drill straight down and then my holes get sloppy trying to make up for being a little off Very impressed! Subscribed and I’ll try to learn your tricks

[@dougd2723]

Brilliant! Then I said to myself, those vises used to make this, to demonstrate it's use, could have used the vise there already. No?

[@shawnr771]

An additional vise never hurts. Also this could hold wide pieces on the flat side instead of the edge.

[@Chaotician69]

No! Not the same kind of vice setup. You can't use the vices he had for large pieces of wood. His new design can accommodate for much larger pieces. Extremely useful for sanding the surface of a small table top as an example, but imagination is the only limit. Totally valid question though. 😃

[@Polibon59]

Why don't you show the end result right at the start so people can see what the end result is? Then they can decide if it's worth watching, to see how to make one. Good work though!

I'm with you Paul. It's "click-bait" to make you watch the whole video. I just jump to the end to see what the hell it is, then decide whether I'm going to go back and watch the build. Too often I've watched someone's build, only to find that their build doesn't even relate to the tile of the video and what they are building has no interest to me, or what they built is just crap.

Excellent video for getting the creative juices flowing and promoting the concept of repurposing broken contraptions. Well done sir! There's mostly great positive comments with a small handful of narrow viewpoints. To the latter I say, if you're a crafter, open up your mind to the possibilities, don't just look at the face value of what's being made ..... go beyond! Beyond recycling, beyond what was made ..... there's crafting techniques, there's tool use vs tasks required to be done, there's a plethora of more ideas triggered from this video, there's the concept that everything can be used and used again and again.

[@marleycharkwick]

[@crustyoldfart]

An ingenious idea. Certain things surprised me though : your use of apparently low quality wood - it looked like ordinary 2X4 lumber stock ; your use of Forstner bits in a hand held drill and drilling from both ends rather than a straight through bore.

[@abdulkek4821]

Harold L POTTS the Wood can crack if you drill straight through

[@crustyoldfart]

@@abdulkek4821 Yes of course. My point was the use of Forstner bits in a hand held drill which can give your hand/wrist a nasty jolt. Secondly the purpose behind Forstner bits, intended for use in a drill press, allows precision of depth of penetration, allowing the point only to pierce the bottom of the hole. The piece is then reversed and the bit inserted in the hole, allowing a fresh cut from the other side and avoiding the splitting you mention.
