How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10 instructables How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10 by Yonatan24 I recently found a HUGE M20 Turnbuckle while are involved in the build, and the vise can be used for hiking, and thought I could built myself a Twin-Screw them too! vise with it, since I needed another big vise. The M20 Bolts from the Turnbuckle can apply several tons of force, so I think they're a great option for building a vise. Let's get started! Not only can a big Moxon Vise like this hold your workpiece, but it can also hold tools such as Hand- Planes, Routers, Power sanders, and many more, which I will be going through in a future Instructable. *Pssst! Don't forget to check out more info about the giveaway in the comments! If you enjoy doing woodworking and metalworking projects, this vise is definitely for you! Both of them How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 1 Step 1: What You'll Need: Hardware & Materials: M20 Turnbuckle European Beech Wood (Dimensions are in the next step) Metal Shelf Brackets Several Small Screws Hard Plywood Water (Coolant) Tools (+Attachments): Hacksaw Several Clamps Bench Vise Pen Speed Square Measuring Tape 7mm Chisel' Drill-Bits: 4mm Drill-Bit, 25mm Spade Bit, 54mm Holesaw Drill-Press Drill Hot-Glue Gun ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Recommended Safety Equipment: Earmuffs, Respirator, Safety Goggles Cost (for me): FREE! Difficulty: Fairly Hard Approximate Time: ~5 Hours How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 2 How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 3 Step 2: Cut Wood to Size This step includes all of the wood sawing that you'll After making sure that they were square with a speed need to use. The following pieces of wood have been square, I cut the first pieces using a hacksaw. These salvaged from an beech baby crib, a beech chair, and will serve as the vise's jaws. some hard plywood from and old disc organizer. The second piece was also cut to two pieces with a Here are the dimensions: hacksaw. 2 Pieces of 68 X 8 X 2cm (Beech Wood) The wooden washers were made with a big hole saw, and then the inner part was drilled out with a Spade 2 Pieces of 7 X 4.5 X 2cm (Beech Wood) bit. 2 Homemade Wooden Washers: 54mm Outer diameter, 25mm inner diameter' 1 1. Speed square bokeh! How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 4 How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 5 Step 3: Cut the Threaded Part Off the Turnbuckle Here comes the world's worst step. Also an insane amount of work step when all you have is a hacksaw. I sawed the both nuts off the steel. It took me over an hour. Make sure to lubricate it with water or any other lubricant to avoid overheating. One of them didn't turn very well, so I cleaned it up with a coarse grinding stone. If you still have hands, you can move onto the next step... How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 6 Step 4: Drill Holes in the Jaws I clamped both of the biggest pieces on top of each other, and drilled 25mm holes where I wanted the bolts to be. You'll need a fairly powerful Drill-Press to do this. How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 7 Step 5: Drill Holes in the Thread Holders I don't know how to call these. They will protect the nut from digging itself into the jaws. I marked the center of both of them, and then drilled a hole with a 25mm Spade bit. How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 8 Step 6: Drill & Carve Out the Wood the Spacers That Hold the Nuts I first placed the nut of the piece of wood and traced out the outline. After that, I drilled out several holes, and then chiseled all of the excess material out, as shown in the pictures. How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 9 Step 7: Glue the Nuts in the Spacers, & Spacers to the Jaws I chose Hot-Glue to glue the nuts in the spacers. I suppose silicone would be a better choice. I put some hot glue in the place that was carved, and then clamped it really tightly. When it had cooled down, I added more on the sides. The last gluing step was to glue the spacers to the jaws,m which was done with hot glue too, and clamped quickly really tightly. Step 8: Screw Everything Together Screw everything together. Don't forget to add the wooden washers! Make sure everything works as it is supposed to, and move on to the next step! How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 10 Step 9: Secure the Vise to the Table You can use clamps, but I prefer securing it to the table with metal brackets. I first marked where I wanted the brackets to be, and then drilled out the holes, and screwed the small screws in. Do not over tighten! How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 11 Step 10: Use Your Homemade Twin-Screw Moxon Vise! Congrats! You've built your own moxon vise!

Enter quickly before I run out! Oh, and does anyone want me to crush something with the vise? I have another computer mouse, and maybe some other things... Anyone? :) great idea! Thank you! Oof, I like the instructable. But... Those are pretty nice and useful on their own! Especially one in the good condition you found it. They are typically for producing tension in a cable assembly, which you probably know, but I am just mentioning. It felt painful to see it cut apart when I assume the vice is not quite as practical. That's true. In the end, it's easy to use, but isn't as good as I thought it would be :( I didn't find a use for the turnbuckle, but I hope I'll find a better use for the vise :) I've been thinking of making a vise like this. Very helpful! Glad you liked it! :) How to Build a Twin-Screw Vise | DIY Woodworking Tools #10: Page 13.

Mr. Halladay, who spent years as a technician in several screw machine shops, dreamed of owning his own company one day. So, with the help of his business partner, Walter Randolph, the two opened H & R Screw Machine Products. What started as a small operation with just two customers evolved into a company that manufactures millions of precision machined components each month in a 38,000-square-foot facility in Reed City, Michigan. Today, the company is run by Mr. Halladay’s sons, Tim and Tom Halladay, who spent most of their lives working their way up through the company. “As a company, we all work very closely together and we try to treat our employees like family,” says Tom Halladay, president of H & R Screw Machine Products. “We have many people on staff who’ve been with the company 10 to 30 years, and they’re a major reason why we’ve succeeded over headquarters also features aqueous parts washing systems, a the years.” quality assurance lab and a scrap and oil processing system.

  • Plating S & Heat Treatment
    Plating s & Heat Treatment Plating Description Zinc is the most popular of all commercial plantings because it is relatively economical and offers good corrosion resistance in environments not subject to excessive moisture. Commercial zinc plating has a standard minimum thickness of 0.00015 inches. However, Class 2A threads allowance in sizes No. 8 and smaller may not accommodate this thickness. Electro –Zinc To avoid any reduction in the strength properties of these screws, a thinner coating may be acceptable. A clear or bluish & Clear chromate finish is applied on top of the zinc to provide additional protection against white oxidation spots, which can form due to moisture. Electroplating is the most common way of applying zinc coatings to fasteners. It is recommended by certain industry experts that case-hardened parts which are electro-plated should be baked after plating to minimize the risk of hydrogen embrittlement (see below) Commercial zinc-yellow plating has a standard minimum thickness of 0.00020 inches. However, Class 2A thread Electro – Zinc allowances in sizes No. 8 and smaller may not accommodate this thickness. To avoid any reduction in the strength properties of these screws, a thinner coating may be acceptable. Yellow chromate offers a greater degree of protection & Yellow from white corrosion than does clear chromate. Electroplating is the most common way of applying zinc coatings to fasteners. Electro – Zinc A wax lubricant is added to the zinc coatings of certain fasteners to improve the ease of assembly. This is the standard plating for thread rolling screws including the Plastite and Taptite II, as well as two-way reversible center-lock nuts.

  • Swanson Speed Square Manual Español
    Swanson speed square manual español Continue Specification Asset Sizes (v.)-7.25 x 7 x .875Packed with 44-page Swanson® Blue Book In this tutorial, we're going to take a quick look at the speed of the area, a tool that you may already have but can't fully understand. While made to frame carpentry, square speed can be indispensable in many measurement and marking situations. Let's see. What is Speed Square? A speed square (aka a sling square or triangle square) is a measurement of a multi-tool. Made of steel, aluminum or plastic, this common carpenter tool combines a ruler, try square, protractor, line-cutting tool, overall width of board break manual, and saw guide for making exact 90 and 45 incisions with a hand or circular saw. The speed of the square basic uses as a try square, for a quick measurement of the line perpendicular to the edge of the board (hence the square in the title), as miter area, for accurate marking of 45 angles, and as a protractor, for easy to find and marking various common angles, especially roof rafters and angles for ladder stringers (vertical fulities on stairs). The high- speed area was invented in 1925 by Albert Swanson. Swanson was a carpenter in a small town outside Chicago. He wanted to create a device to make it easier to quickly identify the resin on the roof. After he created the speed area, other carpenters started asking him for one, and Swanson Instrument Company was born. Speed Square is actually a trading name, but like Kleenex, it is often used as a generic name for this class instrument.
