Cheap 5' Bench Vise Unboxing and Review - Garage Extra Part 8

I bought a cheap but really highly rated 5" vise from Amazon to replace the tiny one I bought from Harbor Freight. This is a remove and replace of my old vice and some info on why it failed. My workbench really sucks still though.

lol, so this isn't super clear in the video because in my head these videos are strung together sequentially and I've gotten a few comments about it. I didn't replace the vise explicitly because the short fasteners failed but rather because I needed to fit a rear diff carrier in the vise to torque the ring gear bolts and my old vise was too small, see timestamp 11:44 if you abandoned it early. I thought it was funny at the time but I can see that it definitely wouldn't make sense to folks stumbling on this. 🤷My bad!✌

Bolts pulled through the cheap plywood and now you need a new vise lmfao.

I have the Irwin the same thing just marketed under another name. I’m having trouble with the swivel base. Could you show how your model looks on the inside I can’t get mine to work correctly. It feels like it’s jammed or improperly set. Love your content best wishes with the project.

Which part of the bench vise do you measure 5 inches? Also, is 5 inch good for most small time Diyers?

70% of this video is him trying to find the right bolt to hold the vise down. lol

[mattzillarcworks]

That's a cheap vise? So how does a high end vise look like

[wernervanloo]

People actually do read the descriptions 🙂

So you bought a new vice because the fasteners that hold it to the bench failed? Whatever you need to convince your wife to let you buy new tools
