Very Rusty Huge Vise - Perfect Restoration
This vise is an heirloom from my subscriber's craftsman father. It was waiting to be restored for 20 years in a warehouse and he asked me to restore it. It was very rusty, dirty, and rotten. The vise jaws were rotten and all the pins were stuck. This is my first time encountering the "YUNG" brand,
I searched about the company but couldn't find anything, rumor has it it's a Chinese brand, I think the nice vise is pretty solid and heavy. I made the new smooth jaws from 2344 steel,
I painted it with sweet blue paint and added nice touches of brass because brass adds an authentic air.
I restored a meaningful memory to my subscriber...
I hope you like my work and my video.

BEAUTIFUL !
Nice job, though as others have remarked, no gloves or loose sleeves near lathes.
Anyone who can take on a challenge like that...I must subscribe to. "Repurposing" today is King. The sense of pride in seeing (and using) that tool is priceless. Don't allow the doubters below keep you from bringing back life into a forgotten utilitarian piece like that. I took on a miniature vise like that many years ago, and it was so precious to me that I had it mounted onto a nice chunk of black walnut for my desk. It never ceases to bring a smile to my face. Great work !!!
SO ! WHAT ! Do ! You ! Do With it ! ? In the Workshop !? With it ! Then !!
@@davidwillard7334 It used to be a jewelers vise, but now it's a keepsake.
The only part I didn't like was Rusty Boy using filler. It's a tool not a Rolls Royce! Oh and stop using gloves around spinning lathes you could lose arm or a hand if your glove gets caught while the lathe is spining! We don't wanna see you get hurt so be safe bro!
Never heard of Yung.. Turned out pretty good.. I just pulled a 100Lb Prentiss vise out of the ground in front of my barn.. Cant wait to find time to bring her back..
Nicely done :) To help with TIG welding make sure you get correct gas flow and in case of "bubbling" when welding mild steel try and use stainless steel filler rod (helps with dropping temperature if mild steel overheats what causing "bubbling"). I'm usually wrapping cable around my hand once so it doesn't pull my hand down so I can keep more consistent weld and proper support for your hand helps a lot. Check if you got HF setting on your machine as I think you have "contact" set up so you starting and right away sticking your tungsten onto the job. Those vise are made out of cast iron which should be welded with proper electrodes or MIG (as 2nd option) since welds done with TIG are prone to crack really fast. Also for your own safety ditch gloves when working on lathe, please. Basic safety rule got "no gloves or loose sleeves" policy while working with these machines.
Il faut proteger le banc du tour quand on soude et essayer de ne jamais meuler sur un tour, les grains de meulage vont partout detruire les usinage precis des pieces du tour à métaux.
Brought that vise back in the game/Outstanding-Bravo....
My man. You did 1000% better than I could or would even attempt. That being said. If you're going to say it's a perfect restoration. You should see either my mechanics, or mister patina.
Very nice transformation. Thanks for sharing.
To say this is a challenge would be an understatement.
Nice!
Well done. Turned out great.
Vises are pure logic very handy indeed the guy who invented them was a genius....
I have watched lots and lots of vise restorations and I think you get the prize for the most extensive repairs in the restoration. Awesome job @ rebuilding.
You should look Meine Mechaniser! He is the best.
Watch my mechanics... HE IS THE BEST
Nice work!💪
Awesome job!!!!

When using electrolysis, try not to use salt. It breaks NaCl bond of salt and form toxic chlorine gas. Baking Soda will work as well with no poison gas.
I LOVE how you have limited resources but you do wonderful work. Men with improvisational skills will rule the world
Rule the World !?? In what ! Way !! Then !
What limited resources? He's got a lathe, milling machine, tig welder and who knows what else tucked away in his workshop.
Excelente trabalho.
Wow that thing was in a bad way at the start. Nice restoration. Looks brilliant. Well done.
Nice job. Referencing the 14 minute mark, you’ll get much better threads and you’re tool will last much longer if after every turn forward you reverse your tap about half to two thirds of a turn to clear your chips. And always use a lubricant. Margarine or even water if that’s all you have but turning threads dry and not clearing your tap is asking for a broken tap stuck in your hole.
Very well done, loved the machinig of new parts Dr G
But ! THOSE ! PARTS ! ARE ! NOT ! ORIGINAL !! THOUGH !!
@@davidwillard7334 Thats Ok with me, he got the job done. Dr G
Cool object, well done.
Beautiful job.
Great Job. To improve your TIG welding, hold your TIG torch more perpendicular to your work - think 90 degrees with 20 degrees of tilt or so. The torch heats the material and the rod is to "fill" the void the heat creates.
Hell of a restoration Bro.👍👍👍
Hello, I liked the sequence of your work to restore the iron vise and this is the logical and practical sequence of removing old rust from rusty iron objects. You have my utmost respect for this wonderful and very beautiful effort.
👨🔧
Very nice and clean job.
A paint roller???? And you're so good at everything else!
good job men👍❤️
Отличная работа!!!
Thanks for the video ....
Well done. This vice will likely las another 50 years because of your time and effort.

God, I love hacksawing on a lathe! Parting is like pulling teeth.
First rate work!

Very nice work.. it wasn't much to start with but you turned it into a nice addition to your shop...
Thank you for your nice comment 👨🔧
It was Still a Vice ! Though !. Before he Started ! It ! Dick.!
nice work
Hey you did a really good job 👍🏻 👍🏻👍🏻🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
This was a particularly poorly built vice to begin with and you absolutely made it great! It's better now than it ever was in its life previously! Great work!
Наковальня получилась просто Сууууперрр отличная работа теперь можно заняться и слесарными работами чтобы восстановить старую наковальню нужно много времени и терпения 👍👍👍👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.

Now that's some real vice right there.

kardeşim ellerine sağlık başarılar dilerim
You do beautiful restoration work!
Electrolysis didnt really seem to do much - might be worth using baking soda in future. Probs wouldve been a good shout to wire brush all the loose crap off it first, looks like thats mostly the loose debris floating to the surface. Im also fairly surely TIG isnt supposed to spark like that... but you did a good job with what seemed to be a fairly low/mass production vice. Also tap with 2 hands, 1 hand is how you break it and spend an afternoon swearing at it. Speaking from experience here 😂
Gute Arbeit von einem guten Mann!Viele Grüße aus Deutschland!👍🖖🍀
Viele dank! 🙏
Sehr gute Arbeit.
Danke schön 🙏
geesh louise, Was this thing used as a boat anchor ??!!
Nice restoration, but far from PERFECT.. I like the blue color, good video...worth a "thumbs up"!
Maybe. But I’d be very happy to have it in my shop. Remember: Its a vice and not a crystal wine goblet.
@@rong-man1502 So how much are you wanting to buy for one then !??
They never show us the part where they bury it in the garden for a year.
good stuff. I want this piece.
I can restorate for you
@@RustyBoyCrafts can I buy this piece? or something similar? I'm looking for a large vise
I can find similer vise, i think you should send mail rustyboy@outlook.com.tr
Muito bom !
I agree with filling nicks and dings from use but I really don't appreciate those restorers that make the entire casting smooth like it had never been used and now looks likes its made of plastic. It takes away from it natural beauty. Thank you for sticking with the G code.
God bless you. Please don't wear gloves when using lathe and other tools that can grab. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. Stay safe friend and excellent work.
Oh my god, it makes me scared to imagine how much rust went off this girl during electrolysis. The vice might have lost 500-600 grams easily. Great job man, thank you!
Is That ! How ! Much ! The ! Vice ! Weighs !?? Then !
Great job on the restoration; and a workshop filled with some excellent tools. It’s always a pleasure to watch something that’s so damaged being brought back to life and almost new. However, if it was me, I think I would have thrown the old vise out and bought a new one. Not one for having patience. But the point is it was an incredible restoration, and very entertaining to watch. Good video.
Stupid comment
Did you have the gas on when you were welding the nut back? TIG welders don't usually spark like that.
Bellissimo restauro, complimenti 🙂👍 Ma per lavorare al meglio, la base della morsa deve appoggiare completamente sul piano di lavoro.
Игде находиш такие антиквариати???
I enjoyed your video. Restoring the vice to a usable state is an effort. I disagree with the viewers who called it a pig. Perhaps they have never used a vice for it's intended purpose. They are made to hold things to work on sometimes to beat on not to win a beauty pageant. Either way looks good and will last another 50 years. Good job.
🙏🛠
@@davidwillard7334 look at the first post on this video. Patrick Kelly. Not that we need to bring out the pitch forks and torches... but that's where that statement originated.
First time watching your channel and I must say it won’t be the last I really enjoyed it. Fantastic job the vice looks awesome 😊😊😊👍👍👍♥️
🙏
Nice but i have a question. Has the inside of the vice sleeve rusted again? Because when you assembled it it seemed so. Could you have polished it inside with a wire brush head on a drill? Or some sand paper?
I think you put a lot of work into it. The end product could be a little cleaner. But keep up the great work.
güzel çalışma olmuş eline sağlık. Türk olduğun için sevindim hep yabancılardan bakıyorum hatta sende gizleme bunu bence
2:10 se nota la lectura de 24.7 libras o son 11.2 kilogramos?. Me gustó mucho tu proceso y el resultado final. La marca YUNG seguramente es China, igualmente NO logré encontrar información de ella; de hecho SOLO tu tornillo de banco aparece en google. Seguro es China, la calidad de la pieza es algo burda PERO robusta. Saludos¡¡¡
You should have created cross-hatch grooves on the jaws.
At 19.50........verry trickie what you did. Tapping with a cordless drill.
I enjoyed the video. My only complaint is that you cut footage of the sandblast.
👏🏻👏🏻❤️
Rusty boy I will now relate a story I was but a child my father worked in a machine shop we went down one morning early and let ourselves in with a key and we found a guy just completely turned up into a bloody ball and the lady was still running and the reason that the lady got him was because he wore gloves never ever ever wear gloves around rotating Machinery ever no gloves get rid of them no gloves rotating machinery I assume that you have no one there to help you with these things not to criticize you I want to keep you from losing an arm or a finger okay
James is 100% correct. loose the gloves...
В следующий раз пусть оденет руковици что бы точно на мотало на патрон.

Came here for this comment. Lathes are scary business.
why is the finished surface so rough even after all the putty you used (during the priming section)?
Wow! 24 litres?
Well done, but I had to watch your vid in double speed..
You also should never run a reamer backwards because it will dull it.
👍👍👍
Nice job, one vice back in use. On the safety side, gloves on a machine should never bee seen.
NOR ! Should ! Your ! Birthday ! Suit ! HANDS ! EITHER !!
Nice 👍🏻👍🏻 🇮🇳 Kuki 23|08|2022 .
Just curious, why do you do electrolysis if your just going to sandblast anyways?
Podim wheels look pretty stout, how long do they last
It was utterly uncomfortable to watch you sanding the pipe in lathe while wearing gloves. Very dangerous.
Ever see that video of the dude that gets pulled into the giant lathe and mutilated to death? Don't watch it
👏👏👏👏👏👏
For the love of moses, please look at your lathe that noise can't be healthy!
Problem solved :) You can listen in the new videos.
Creo k le faltó mucho para k se le pueda llamar restauración ya k el cuerpo del tornillo, le falto trabajo en todo, en cuanto a palancas y demás accesorios la limpieza y pulido estuvo pasable
This vise needs to be cleaned and cleaned till it sparkles failure has no options its the logical way of doing a old stubborn relic !
14:53 looks like a crack between the jaw and that surface to be milled
Tal vez no seas un buen soldador, pero si sabes manejar un torno. Como que usaste una esmeriladora en lugar de tornear???
Can you tell me what manufacture and color of paint you used?
Dewilux Hammershlag 431-4297-10 It looks like the Marshall Hammerite series.
Paint ! Paint !.
Хорошая работа, отличное оснащение мастерской. По самому видео могу сказать, что на мой взгляд немного затянуто вступление: нет никакого смысла показывать ржавые детали несколько минут, 30-40 секунд вполне достаточно, тем более что и процесс разборки показан довольно подробно и в финале довольно много кадров сравнения что было и что стало. По самой проделанной работе возник вопрос: после фрезеровки площадка наковальни, заходящая на губку тисков выглядит совсем не эстетично, Это так и задумывалось или не было времени/желания придавать плавные линии этой части? Ещё небольшое замечание по шпаклёвке, проделана большая работа, столько сил вложено и в итоге мы имеем хороший результат, но почему нельзя было зашпаклевать всю поверхность гладко под один уровень? Только этот момень не даёт поставить работе отличную оценку, ограничивая её как просто хорошо.
Man that is a crappy vise! It looks like I forged in in the back yard. Nice job working with what you were given.
Looks like a chinesium vise. They are always rough castings once you get the paint off.

Why is the lathe making clonking noise? Does it have bad bearings?
I fixed, my lathe is very old and have bad bearings, belt system
Very nice resto job but it will never be a Wilton or a York.
what did you use to blacken the jaws?
Burned 10w40 Motor oil
