User questions & answers

Question:	What kind of thread is on the vise screw? The original Record vise had a buttress thread. Are these square, buttress or acme
Answer:	We recommend you use a moderate to hard wood. Oak would make a good option for the jaw face plate.
Question:	what kind of wood should the jaw faces be made of
Answer:	I've got 2 inches of wood jaws and the overall length is right about 16", so I'd say 16-18".
Question:	what is overall length of vise
Answer:	On mine, I measure a bit over 4-1/16" between outer extremities of the guide rods; the width of the plate and bracket that bolts to the face / underside of the bench I measure just about over 7-1/8" wide.
Question:	What is the width (the distance between the outermost edges) of the rods that go under the tabletop? And that piece holding them together? Thanks
Answer:	Sorry to hear about your knife, Douglas! Please send our team a message at this link corellebrands.com/consumer-care. We'd be happy to help with the warranty.

Question:	what kind of warrenty on the fox 4" bench vise

Answer:	Not without some serious modifications
Question:	Can you add a spinning/pivoting “foot” end (opposite end of handle

Question:	Does the bench screw come with a plate so a wood disc can be mounted on the end of the threads that will swivel

User questions & answers

Question:	What are the inner dimensions or inner shelf height? If I have an old vanity 28" H x 24"D would it fit

Question:	Looks pretty good on a mobile screen, but why does it cost so much
Answer:	Yeah i did it looks great!
Question:	How big are the square pads that the table top sits on
Answer:	when you say wall damage, i assume when you remove it.it depends on the material of the wall (sheet rock, mdf board, concrete, etc.), and what's already on the wall. if the wall has been painted, there's a good chance of not having a wall damage when removed. if the wall has wallpaper, the wallpaper might come-off when you remove this film.try it in a small/hidden portion of the wall as a test.
Question:	so it's a table without a top ? so it includes 4 legs and a bottom shelf only ? no top

User questions & answers

Question:	I have a chuck that is 1"-8tpi female thread (nova 48111), it doesn't fit on this lathe. what adapter should i buy
Answer:	Buy a 3/4" 16 TPI to 1" 8 TPI adapter. If you further questions go to http://www.woodturningz.com/downloads/w1704_ds.pdf for the specs on this machine.
Question:	is there an adapter for the face plate for mounting live center chucks? I bought one but won't line up with holes
Answer:	I'm not sure if they make the adapter to mount on the face plat. I have a 2" diameter three jaw,self centering scroll type chuck that i bought from Amazon that ihave used that works great,but i think that the holes in the face plate is for mounting a backing block to the piece of wood stock to turn a bowl. It says in the manual that you glue the block to the wood your turning and use the holes to screw the block on to face plate. Hope this helped.
Question:	What size wood stock can it hold? How about something like 12'' long by 8" wide piece of wood
Answer:	The length it will hold will be dependant upon what chucks you have in the head and tail stock. The bulkier the chucks, the shorter the length it will handle. I'd say it will hold 12" lengths unless your chucks are sizable. I wouldn't try more than 4" width stock unless it was short. Although the lathe may hold the stock, it would be too much for the motor. The intended purpose of this lathe is to make small things like ink pens, Christmas ornaments, small toys like tops or yo-yo's and tool handles etc. If you want to mount 12" X 8" stock you should be looking at full sized lathes.
Question:	is there anyway to secure to a bench
Answer:	Yes. It has has three holes in the base that you can bolt it down with. I bolted mine down on a metal stand. It holds it down real solid. Mine is the Shop Fox W1704 also. It is well built. I really like mine. Hope this helps!

User questions & answers

Question:	How to I get a replacement leg? Just set up the bench and the bottom of the leg has broken welds
Answer:	Butcher block finish table top measures 13" x 23" and is 30-1/2" tall. It also has a 700lb capacity. I would say yes. but it is a Craftsman....
Question:	Is this bench tall enough for a Craftsman Bench Top drill press
Answer:	Too many people have offered that it doesn't matter since they were clever enough to re-drill and tap their own size. I just wanted to confirm Frank Franz's helpful answer that these are M8 metric threads and Amazon does have locking casters that fit - just verify the thread on the casters is M8 and they fit just fine. I use the table as a base for a buffing station with 14" buffing wheels on a 36" wide shaft and the base is plenty stable.
Question:	Shop Fox D2056 Tool Table - can casters be screwed into legs? What size threaded post is needed
Answer:	Do you already have the Tool Table? If so, take the screw off of one leg of the table and take it to a hardware store or a lumber yard. The people who work there should have a gauge that will tell you the size of the screw and the thread pitch.
Question:	i want to put casters on this product, but i can't find the deminsion of the screw to the feet of this table. anybody have an idea
Answer:	Made.in China so there probably isn't one The best advice I.I can give you is to keep in greased and to use it for light projects

User questions & answers

Question:	How tall and long is this vise
Answer:	this vise is cast and made in china
Question:	Where is this vise made? Is it steel or cast iron
Answer:	Lol, I originally bought it too for my ar-15. Pretty sturdy product; use A R mounts and vise rubber pads and its a go.
Question:	How well is this vise holding up? I need something for building AR-15 rifles on and for what they cost I'm needing a pretty sturdy vise
Answer:	The widest I would go is 4 1/2 inches
Question:	How wide a piece of wood will this vise accommodate
Answer:	Why ask here, this is an answer forum for customers to help each other, but none of us can help you replace faulty parts. I suggest that you contact whoever you bought the table from, and request a replacement table or a spare leg. If they send a full table kit, just take one good leg of the new kit and swap with the bad leg.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can the threaded rod be shortened using a hacksaw or similar tool or is the metal too hard
Answer:	No. Mine were cast iron. I had to drill the foot to attach with wood screws, to a wooden shoe for my project. Very well made.
Question:	Are the white pieces plastic

• Solid construction

User questions & answers

Question:	How wide does this vise open
Answer:	Bob, mine came with two jaws. One side is flat and is covered with a layer of cork applied on top of a non-magnetic alloy body (the description says that it's steel -- mine are not but that doesn't hurt my use of them). The "tilt" is the shape of the back side of each part. If you lay the pieces onto a flat surface, cork side down and with the cut-out facing away from you, the side view of the jaws resembles a slightly pitched roofline (pitched down about 15 degrees from horizonal...so with both jaws in the vise, I get about 30 degrees of taper). The entire body has the same surface but the cut-out removes the ridge from the lower. In other words, mine look like they are cast then machined to the shape you see in the picture.
Question:	When this item is purchased do you get (2) two jaws as pictured or do you get (1) one jaw and the pictures shows both sides of the (1) jaw you recd
Answer:	Kinda. If you use only one then one side of what your working on will be pressed up against the iron jaws so it could get scratched. Plus since these are slightly taller than the jaws of the part vise it would make working on whatever you have in the jaws difficult if it was small. But using only one would be possible but kind of pointless since they come as a matched pair anyways
Question:	Is it necessary to use two of these to make them work
Answer:	It´s made of aluminiun...
Question:	Is this made of steel
Answer:	It has been hardened. You could use a cut off abrasive wheel on angle grinder.

User questions & answers

Question:	Has anyone used this as an anvil stand
Answer:	I think it would be fine as long as your drill is 38 inches high, and you’re not over 6’ tall. Stand with your drill would be 62” high. Hope this helps.
Question:	Would this be too small for a 13" drill press? Drill press overall height is
Answer:	I bought wheels for mine, so can't really answer your question. Possibly Home Depot or Lowes might have rubber caps that might work.
Question:	Can I buy Just the rubber feet as spare part
Answer:	The height is 24" assembled with synthetic feet attached. The top work area is 22" x 17 1/2". All dimensions are from my assembled stand. My stand has a 3/4 " plywood top and has a bench drill press attached. The power head is at the same level as my floor drill press.
Question:	what size it this when assembled
Answer:	The D3125 parrot vise without the tilting jaws opens to 4.75". Each tilting jaw is about 3/8" thick so the net opening of the vise with the jaws is approximately 4". Hope this helps.
