Only have one left I have used it since, forty years, used it last night, for example. I wish I had another, I could use two at a time, as I use them for clamping a fair amount, and I have the bench it came from on the other side of the bench I use.

The vise you show looks very nice. Originally Posted by Paddyman. Hay all, I have just acquired my first, Oliver Pattern makers Vise it is in excellent condition. I have 2 Emmerts. Very handy for woodworking. The Oliver design was made by Kindt-Collins after Oliver stopped. An Oliver No. I have no interest in or Oliver Woodworking Vise Quotes connection to the eBay ad. Just noting it. I have never seen an Oliver in the flesh. I have used their wood lathes and know their reputation so you should be in fine shape.

Thanks for the information all. Like I said, I see a lot of Emmert's on line and almost no Oliver's. I would love to be able to date mine as to it being an earlier or later model.

Have had little luck finding information on the Oliver Machinery Company, just one site, although an excellent site, Oliver. I have seen two models of the Oliver, the one I have and the one with the cam angel adjustment like on the Emmert. Wondering which came first. I am assuming mine is roughly Is there any marking anyone is aware of that would indicate age and where is it? I found these numbers on the the Nut, 6 which I will add a photo of.

Thread Tools Show Printable Version. Oliver patterns makers vise - Need help I just picked up this old vise, it's still in very good shape but has couple missing parts. I'm thinking these parts shouldn't be complicate to hire someone to machine them but in need of dimensions for them since I'm totally new to this type of vise.

Could there be another purpose? Between the near guide bar and screw in the picture actually on the bottom of the vise is a square rod, which I call the "control rod". More on that later. The two gear segments are part of the quick-release mechanism. Pins at the ends of the segment on the screw prevent the gears Oliver Woodworking Vise Form from turning out out of mesh.

The gear on the screw is attached to the screw only by pressure from a stiff spring on the end of the screw. This allows the screw to continue turning after the end of the gears' travel is reached, as the gear slips on the screw. The square control rod is clearly visible on top. When it's turned by the gear segments, the rod causes the "camshaft" notice the two cams to turn either against or away from the half-nut.

In this shot, the cams are pressing against the half-nut, causing it to engage the main screw. Since the whole thing is upside down, the half-nut is still against the screw. In actual operation right-side-up , gravity would allow the half-nut to fall away from the screw.

At any rate, it's a very nice vise that works beautifully. Despite the Oliver Woodworking Vise Questions complexity, the action is very positive. However, I'd guess this sucker was rather expensive to manufacture!
