Vise stand

[sea2summit]

I just started teaching myself off the dreaded YouTube community college so pretty basic stuff this year

Vise stand



Experimental bee hive stand to keep the ants out and kill the falling hive beetles.

Nice idea and I'm guessing the price was right.

 

[sea2summit]

Yeah, price was right. About to do something similar for my bench grinder...but maybe 100# or so lighter.

Noted, sorry it impacted you. Yes, 'vise' is the shop tool, not vice.

Okay, I will not be impacted if you award me 10 internets?

Meh, it's just one of the bugs of a new site.

Outside of American English it is still spelled “vice”. “Vise” is the most common modern day version.

I find the cleanliness of your shop....disturbing.

Also looks like you need to mount a few vises

Are you kidding? His vices are vises!!

Well, after amazing reviews by the user of the vise stand (me) I decided to give my consumers the next thing on the list.

Bench grinder stand.

Scrap available.


Cutting it close but it’ll work.


For a new guy on rusty scrap? I’ll take that!


Waiting for paint.


Done, not bad for a morning project while on lockdown.

First off, nice looking, good little project.

Second, I once had a grinder on a small stand like that. BE CAREFUL, it'll tip real easy.

Some concrete will help if it's unstable. This one has concrete filling the 1 ton brake drum and more concrete part way up the 1/4" wall 6x6 tubing. It don't move.

Weight helps, on mine, I put a cross bar on the leg and stored my suitcase weights on it, adding a couple hundred pounds.

All materials were given to me. All this cost me to make was time, electricity, wire and paint

Very nice indeed. I made a stand using a round piece of 3/8" plate 36" diameter. I welded receiver tube to it facing upwards and reinforced with 3/8" gussets, Made plates for a couple of my vises and one for my ring roller, each with a piece of 2" drawbar on the bottom that drops into the receiver which is also height adjustable by the way. I added threaded holes for bolts to take up the slop. When using the vise or ring roller you are standing on the plate so no movement, very solid. I will put up pics when I can. None of my stuff is painted that pretty though!
