    Replica Power Arm clamp

    So, here is the Power Arm clamp, finished. I made this one for myself. It was designed for the Baby Bullet and Power Arm Junior. This version is beefy and more than an adequate stopgap, given the lack of originals available on the market. For those curious about the construction, the clamp is...

    Parker Vise Bear

    Parker Vise bears: I’ve never been able to justify spending $400 on a tool advertisement piece, so I decided to make my own. Each piece is hand-painted and made from a modern material that’s 60% iron and 40% plastic, so—as you can see in one of the photos—they’re magnetic. They aren’t...

    Baby Snapon Vise

    Just made this little guy for fun. It’s functional but I am only going to use it for display 2” jaws using iron/plastic composite materials. That’s a 5” SnapOn branded Wilton for size comparison.

    Need a machinist in the states

    I’ve been designing and building these vises for the past eight months, using a combination of machining and 3D printing. Through this process, I’ve identified several weak points that cannot be 3D printed and must instead be made from solid metal. Since I do not have the equipment to produce...

    Steel stock 7/16th X 19/64

    So I’m looking to make jaws for small jeweler vices. I’d like to incorporate these dimensions and have each jaw 2 inches. I’m having a hard time trying to find the stock. It’s the same dimension that a real original baby Wilton bullet vise jaws are made in. Can someone give me some advice here...

    Female threaded internal part vise

    I’m currently working on a slight redesign of my small jeweler’s vise. I’m trying to extend the jaw opening, and to do that, I’m switching from a standard nut to an internally threaded pipe. However, I feel like there might be a better solution out there. Ideally, I’d like to attach the threaded...

    2” jeweler Vise

    What I’ve built here is a 2-inch, baby bullet-style vise inspired by classic designs like the Wilton, York, and Buffalo, with a nod to similar Soviet-era styles. This is my personal take on a timeless tool that’s been reimagined countless times over the past 80 years. The body is crafted...

    Wilton, power arm reproduction

    I’ve decided to start reproducing some Wilton parts that are no longer available. Since I’m not casting these pieces, I’m using high-performance 3D printing filaments instead. The originals were made from aluminum, but given the materials I’m using, the durability may actually end up being...

    Versatile fabricated vise

    FYI this is an amalgamation of parts. I took parts from an old broken Wilton suction vise along with a motherboard vise for the clamp base and the magnifying glass and clips are I believe from a fly tying tool. The vise can rotate on every axis and has two jaws that rotate. It’s an amazing tool...
