    Nice way to keep it simple. But simpler yet it to combine the two so you only need to have one thing taking up space in the shop. Benchbull or Bulloxon would be more useful and cheaper.

    Magnificently! Thank you!

    hmmm, what would it take to add a bike chain to turn the moxon into a twin screw vice?

    $20 is still too steep for me. I guess it’s a good thing I already have a vice. But also I don’t see why you need some fancy acme threads instead of just regular hardware store bolts; those would be plenty strong enough for a woodworking vice.

    Great video I always need a higher vice might make one of these

    We’ve come a long way from Tase Frid’s bench… But on a positive note:
    * cut tails first
    * no screeching routers

    Perfect

    Great Idea to use the Dumb Bell Bars



  17. Anon amous on September 18, 2022 at 12:56 am

    If you use the dumbbell bars, shop around. You can find them even cheaper with metal spinlocks, the rubber/nylon deforms.



  18. E Caff on September 18, 2022 at 12:59 am

    Excellent



  19. ikust007 on September 18, 2022 at 1:00 am

    Also love the idea to relate the magazine to videos. Very useful.



  20. Douglas Lambert on September 18, 2022 at 1:00 am

    great tips, but you could have put a little bit more effort on the video…



  21. Sara Ahmad on September 18, 2022 at 1:02 am

    Nice video



  22. David Shaper on September 18, 2022 at 1:03 am

    Bar clamps work for theMoxon vise, too.

    Moxon vises are captured technology from the planet Moxon. Not too many people know that’s how they got their name…
