PIONIER Pipe Vise restoration

Pionier pipe vise restoration with custom part making on my lathe. This is a real ASMR restoration with a lot of sandblasting and powder coating and mirror blank polishing parts. I do this restoration with no music this time to achieve the satisfying feeling that I know a lot of you like in my videos. I bought this Pipe Vise in a local flea market here in Sweden. I don’t know how old it is. There is a sticker on it saying Peddinghouse – I think that Ridgid owns that brand. On the front of the vise it says PIONIER and on the top of the handle nut there is the number 2 – This might stand for fits 2” pipes? The vise was really stuck in many parts when I start working on it. But WD40, fire and strong arms is king when it comes to loosen old rusty bolts and nuts. I use sandblasting to remove all old paint and rust from all the parts. I have loaded the sandblaster with medium hard sand to achieve perfect results when sandblasting on cast iron. I made two custom bolts and I polished them to mirror blank. They hold the main parts together. I also create a custom pin on my lathe to attach the hook on the main body of the vise. I use stainless steel screws to attach the hard metal jaws to the vise and brass screws to attach the moving metal jaw to the moving thread.
