DIY Easy Bench Vise

This is simple project with 3d printing. I found on thingiverse very well designed functional Machine vise. But it has something missed. Sticking to surface is a bit problem. Because it is vise it has to be rigid and stationary or you want to call "fixed". So I redesign the base part of vise and use some old apple peeler to make vacuum based holder. Now it can be used as a real vise :)

• 3D Printing
• Something has vacuum holder( I used old apple peeler)
• 2 Nuts and bolts( Size is up to your own design)

1. An old apple peeler or some kind of vacuum base holder
2. 3D printed parts
3. Nuts and bolts
4. I think its enough :)

I redesigned the part that fit with the vacuum holder.

Remove the two nuts that holding peeler. And remove the vacuum base from peeler. Now its about to be ready.

You can find the STL files of vise in here.

And also my remix in here.

First connect the main gears to sliding jaw. Be sure that notched side alligned.

Then connect the sliding jaw to base A. It should look like this.

Put the handle to the center of vise. Dont worry it will fit snugly :)

Now put the base B on the base A and compress it gently. It will fit snugly again.

There you are! You have completed the upper half of our project :)

Now put the Jaw Plate and Base plate as shown in pictures.

Now put the vacuum base to down below vise. And use bolts and nuts to fix it together.

Then put the pieces together as shown in pictures.

Now you have completed project. This vise wil be your 3rd and 4th hand. Be sure :)

It will hold anything and you will work amazingly ! :)
