How to make a cheap moxon vice

[@andyroa9904]

That is such a versatile idea. It can save you money by just doing that simple trick. Now I know what to buy. Instead of buying expensive bench vise, I will try that idea of yours !!

[@erdiabolo]

I was about to spend $60 to $100 on a woodworkers vise and you just showed me how to make one practically free and 10 times the size. TY!

[@billj5645]

same here!

[@Greek2Me64]

FINALLY, a video that is actually worth watching which suggests something worth BUILDING! Well done!

[@WoodworkingwithDIYtools]

Thank you very much 😃. I think this is the perfect candidate to be our first workbench vice 😁

[@kangacrew540]

Sergio you are a good man with common sense. Thankyou. Using a mobile vice or its parts is way cheaper that buying a kit or a vice. Cheers to you.

[@TheMrWoodsman]

Your woodworking videos are a true inspiration to all woodworkiers, please keep on making them. Regards.

[@ingemarnilsson5498]

You’re a very smart man. I’ll copy your idea. Greetings from a Swedish man living in Thailand.

[@davidnleeh4]

Thank you, you just saved me roughly $16-$20 with this design!!!! FOR NOW, I do not need to go out & buy Pipe Clamps to make myself a bench clamp!!!! Thank you again for such a SUPER SIMPLE idea/design!

[@philmeanor2638]

Best easy and cheap clamp setup I’ve seen. Hope to build it soon. I think I already have the parts - that always wins!!!

[@watcherdude1330]

Segio. Hi from 🇨🇦. That is the most straight forward and easy to follow video. Thanks for saving me LOTS of money. I will add this to the other end of my work bench. This is truly a money saver . Keep up the great videos please.

[@versatileduplicity9313]

Mr. B yep, don't buy a vice. Just make one. Like i hate the prices of vices, it's so stupid !

[@MrJoeblofromidaho]

I love it. Cheap and simple, and he did not use any expensive equipment to make it.

[@5ivestring]

I was trying to think of a way to do this, and just kept coming up short. I was in my mind, using pipe bar clamps, and there wasn't a good way of adjusting the pipe length. I also had over complicated the whole affair. I thought about it on and off for months. Along comes Sergio with the simplest of solutions and a vice that is useful. I give you AAA+++ for thinking outside the box. Good job. It was so easy to do, no time at all. The only thing I have left to do is go to the store tomorrow and get some kind of angle bolt, or make something that will work, but that is easy. GREAT JOB!

[@mrchava1683]

Thank you Sergio, as usual your knowledge and creativity is greatly appreciated, I'm making this for my little shop, one more addition that you contributed to my projects

[@thatchertweed5986]

Great Videos Sergio. You've given me a lot of great ideas without spending money on new tools.

[@marks.6480]

Yet another simple but brilliant idea. I was looking for a cheap way to make a big vice and this fits the bill perfectly. Thanks once again!

[@johnkelley9877]

That is one nice Moxon vise! Very simple to make and inexpensive too. Thanks for sharing this very helpful tutorial.

[@johnhammond5314]

Sergio, You've done it again. So simple and yet to handy.Cheers. John from Australia

[@doveoo5]

Very good! I am beginning and I am so happy to see that one does not need many expensive tools to make many useful tools! Thank you.

[@gordroberts53]

Another brilliant inexpensive alternative to throwing money at a need. Well done and thanks for sharing

[@khurshidawan164]

Just discovered this channel and one of the best !

[@langhilau]

Segio that is one of best Maxon vises I have seen made for the least amount of money. I applaud you for you very clever design and useful idea.

[@cesardevin9454]

You all probably dont give a damn but does anybody know a tool to log back into an Instagram account..? I somehow lost the account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me!

[@colsonangelo8202]

@Cesar Devin Instablaster :)

[@cesardevin9454]

@Colson Angelo i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process now. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

[@cesardevin9454]

@Colson Angelo It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thank you so much you saved my account!

[@colsonangelo8202]

@Cesar Devin no problem xD

[@peggyt1243]

I love your simple cost effective solutions. You are very creative. Thank you for sharing.

[@MrSongwriter2]

This is such a brilliant budget idea. Really good

[@WoodworkingwithDIYtools]

Thank you very much. It is amazing that I made this video some years ago, but people like it yet 😀👍

[@TygerproductionsUK]

I discovered your channel last week, i love the cheap and simple ideas you have come up with. Thanks.

[@billmacgregor1041]

Genius, simple and obviously affordable. Thanks again

[@janverschure9862]

Exellent idea very very good. I love your vids. You show us what you are doing. You are a professional .

[@gary2589]

I really like your ideas, it takes a lot of thought to makes something this flexible and useful.

[@wahinenuiloa]

You sir are a genius! Great yet simple idea. Thanks for posting!

[@mikeh3458]

Love this idea, I have some of those types of clamps, I will give it a try. Thanks for the idea and inspiration.

[@hannatree478]

Ingenuity and make do with what you have in a workshop filled to the brim with sustainable appropriate technology masterpieces . Just like it is here. Bravo!

[@willyh.r.1216]

Smart idea Bro, the most optimal I see so far. Thank u so much.

[@markschiavone8003]

What a extremely versatile vise!! You can put additional slots to hold your clamps further away for wider peices , use longer clamps. I will adapt this to my job site bench!! Thanks

[@WoodworkingwithDIYtools]

Making some different wide wooden jaws and getting ready the workbench to install the one you need ... thank you, that's a nice idea 👍

[@JWAM]

Very nice! I was thinking a little while ago about if there weren't any nice things to be built out of cheap clamps. This is definitely one thing!

[@5ivestring]

Ok Sergio, so simple, so fast. It took about a half hour to an hour. The only thing I had to change was the L bracket to an eye bolt as I couldn't find a bolt pre bent or one I could bend where I live. I put an eye bolt on each side of the clamp and put a hitch pin in to hold the clamp. (hitch pin, think of a strong bobby pin). I'm up and running now. Thanks again.

[@Pasque56]

Bravissimo!!! una semplice ma meravigliosa idea che mi ha risparmiato un sacco di problemi!!!!!! Grazie a presto

[@jimbradley9775]

Fantastic and so simple to make, you have shown that even for someone like me an enthusiastic DIY novice around woodworking anything is possible...Well done that man for empowering us to take up the challenge...👌👍👍

[@WoodworkingwithDIYtools]

I've been making my homemade woodworking projects for years without a workbench vice. Now I see I should make this vise long time ago :D Thanks for watching

[@onehans]

You have many inventive ideas, Keep them comming.

[@jimwilliams2682]

Very clever use of what you have at hand. Bravo!

[@dgale1023]

that is uncomplicated and a great idea thanks Sergio

[@yizhuolin3906]

that's a genius idea... could probably make many other vises with this clamp method.

[@utubecomment21]

This is the third video i have seen, and each have been very good. I think it's time to subscribe. Subscribed!

[@jaescala]

Thank you for posting this video. Great solution for my needs. I found a project to do today!

[@ishortland]

Good idea for a cheap Moxon vice. Good stuff...

[@mikepierce4216]

You have great ideas! Thanks for sharing! Your videos are well made, easy to follow, and enjoyable to watch!

[@hansdegroot8549]

This is awesome. Last winter I tried to build a simple vice but I did not succeed. In the end I found it too complicated and I did not finish it since that time. This looks so much easier. One of my next projects. Thanks for sharing.

[@bernardhvanengen5002]

Hello Sergio, good job, however it could be easier with just the square hooks, a pair of standard clamps and any piece of fairly thick wood. On my workbench I have a higher apron with dogholes in which I use doghole clamps or modified F-clamps and a piece of scrap wood.

[@watcherdude1330]

Bernard that is a very good idea of dog holes. That would work really well . Good thinking outside of the box 📦

[@Motocicleiros]

This is really a great idea. I will make one for my workbench. TY!

[@richardhawkins2647]

The simplest solution I have seen. Well done, great job. (I think I might use this one!)

[@richardjoyner9266]

Bro, this is a great idea. simple and effective. nice! bravo

[@rosalienacario6028]

[@jromhek2070]

Thank you very much , I really wanted a vice without using pipe clamps cause its not available where I live , but these clamp are available . Good job , keep up the good work .

[@aruddick12345]

I love all your ideas! Thank you so much. This really helps me.

[@TheBlakemt]

This is the best idea I’ve seen! I’m going to make one! Thanks!!!

[@rockrebell]

Thanks for sharing this idea. It just pulled out of a thinking spiral of how to install a removable moxon vise. You´ve got yourself a new subscriber :)

[@whitesands928]

Hi Sergio, first, your channel is brilliant, so many designs and ideas. I’ve just completed your moxon vice, easy to make and simple to use plus completely removable.. Thanks. 👍👍

[@mikevanwieringen9883]

Very very clever idea...I will definitely be making this..Thanks for posting, Sergio

[@wolverine1694]

Simple... effective.. most of all,cheap... love it

[@kschrei]

Great idea! I've been in need for a simple vice for a while. The other "cheap" solution I've found uses pipe clamps, but I don't have a drill press to accurately drill the holes for them. Thanks!

[@StephenKelly-ey6ne]

Wonderful thank you I am subscribed and now i will make this project you are an excellent teacher.

[@RattlecanGuitarRestorations]

Excellent use of shop scraps!

[@YourOldDog]

Nice idea, very simple and effective.

[@RonMack07]

Great idea I’m gonna use this idea on my new bench while I’m waiting for my vise to arrive, heck I might just keep it on one end, thanks for sharing.

[@StopGravity]

Brilliant idea. Thanks for sharing your techniques. I will do this also.

[@hdwoodshop]

Nice vice. I bought similar clamps on sale at harbor freight (Chinese made) for $3 dollars. This clamp is practical and very functional.

[@fons7719]

This is what I looking for! Thank you so much.

[@patjcarey]

This will save me a few quid! Many thanks, great idea.

[@woodyswoodcraft627]

Very clever and well explained. Thanks.

[@bluegill2030]

Thanks for the idea of this, I’m going to make this now

[@KipIngram]

I used 3/4" threaded rod from Lowe's for my vise. I bought a two-foot length of the rod and all of the nuts and washers needed for $14. I used scrap 2x6 for the faces, and just bored holes for the rod to pass through. Starting from the back, the hardware layout for each screw was (nut)(washer)(fixed jaw)(recessed nut) -- opening - (movable jaw)(washer)(nut). I used a mallet and chisel to cut the recessed nut holes - didn't take that long. I cut and rounded/smoothed two knob-shaped handles and recessed the front nuts into those. I spent a little extra and put leather on the jaw faces. The leather actually cost about twice what the hardware did, so it wound up being a $45 vise. But it's got 20 inches or so of clear opening and it clamps like a champ as long as the piece reaches both above and below the level of the rods.
