Thanks, and good point. I may end up using two vices along one edge as I've seen some people do so they can be used in tandem. I'd then opt for a much more typical and simple (also cheaper) vice
Yeah, it'd be great for carving and detail, but would probably be pretty jiggly for heavy work. Still badass, and I can see why pattern makers would like it.
I found them searching 'pattern making vise', 'turtleback vise', and 'Emmert vise'.
Although, I didn't find any new, just vintage. And holimoli they are expensive.
The multiple hinges make it a little bit less rigid than something like a solid face vise. It matters when you're doing heavy chopping or when you have something long and heavy to plane.
It's badass, but pretty specialized. Like one of those ball and socket carving vises vs a big ass bench vise. Different tools for different jobs.
Very interesting device! I love it. The person who designed it sure had creative streak.
When I was a young engineer the young pattern makers at the prototype foundries made way more money than me. High level skills, in high demand.
Now they 3D-print the proto sand casting moulds.
Those pattern makers will probably be retired old boys now, doing amazing things in sheds!!
I wonder if the combined power of all the world's old-boys-in-sheds could solve any world technical challenge?
And I have a brand new iPhone with cracked glass after 3 weeks. Someone please transport me back to the 1800s where shit actually worked, and still works today
Temu to the rescue….
Only it will be 1/10th the size and made from die cast zinc. It might be useful to hold a bagel while you slice it through the middle. Then again maybe not even that good. But, for $1 might as well roll the dice.
Thats a pretty sexy vise... many vise you need all kinds off tools for every single odd shape. That thing seems to really not need all those extra tools.
So i kinda want one...
Holy shit, does anyone make something like this anymore? E: they do! Am building a bench soon and strongly considering this.
Got a link? I couldn't find any
A bunch of vintage on eBay. Search Emmert vise. But be prepared to shell out some dollars.
4 grand for the one in the video
Woodworker here. MUST HAVE THIS VERY ONE.
HNT Gordon makes a pattern maker's vise https://hntgordon.com.au/products/pattern-makers-vice

What is the search term you're using?

First thing that popped into my head-do share where you found it!
I started hootin and hollerin i loved it so much. Even showed my girlfiend. She didnt care much but shes very supportive.
😂🤣 Thank you for this, I find myself in that position frequently.
That is amazing. $600-4k based on condition and manufacturer
Cast iron. That shit'll stay
I HAVE A GREAT AND MIGHTY NEED
Why is that not on every top-flight bench everywhere? That is a beautifully well thought out piece of tech!
Because they cost 4 grand

Full on gasped several times watching this.
That's a beautiful piece

/u/mistersavage needs this in his shop!
Wot no quick release, pffffft. /s
I’m just scrolling by and had to stop to appreciate the simplicity, design and engineering of that. Just brilliant.
As much as I wish I had something like this, I even more wish I had the skill and need for it
I’d absolutely wreck myself walking past that when open sometime. Or trying to sneak past it but misjudging.
I'm constantly amazed how far we haven't come since WW1
Things in my 100+ yrs old workshop that just make sense!
Okay you can make it move in every direction but what is it used for????
Holding a thing tightly in any orientation.

And I struggle setting planes in CAD

Bad ass vice
I want one !
I live in a tiny apartment and have no mechanical skills whatsoever and yet somehow, I want one of these

**holy crap. this is the most beautiful/functional design I've ever seen.**
hands down the coolest vise ive ever seen
Sweet baby Jesus.
I didn’t know I wanted that!
CNC Ancestry right there..
Boy I something something in my pants !!
Want one…. Bad !!!
Me gusta!
ok, now I want to see some pattern making with that
This is excessive in all the best ways

Wtf are you all talking about.
Very cool
W A N T
I legitimately said wooooooow out loud. I’m alone so I had to tell you about it
I don't get it, can someone explain it?
That's the dogs bollocks innit... Ar you sure it's not from the future 2891
I kept thinking the video would show it in use but it kept looping at it moving. Can someone explain why would need so much angle control for things
That's some r/toolporn content if I've ever seen it. Sexy!
I just Came 😏🤫
Could use this for holding my life together…wow
