Vises #5: Hi Vise - Main screw
This is
part 5
in a
8 part
series:
Vises
Onto the full size Hi Vise
First up, make the main screw, basically make a rough octagon.
Round it off with the rounding plane.
Make a handle
Thread the screw to fit onto the handle.
And then just shape the handle to an octogen.
And thread the remainder of the screw (Leaving a gap for the garter).
Make the rod for the handle.
End caps
And that's it pretty much done.

I looked but didn't find the garter!

It's in the finish bit, I made it last in case I changed any other bits before that point.
