    Hey Alan, looks like I was writing my post where I mentioned these at the same time you were! :) I will very likely do exactly this for my leg vise, but haven't found a local source for the $15-$20...

    @Peter - Good point regarding the force of multi start threads. That was actually an additional concern I had about the screw I linked in the OP. While I have seen other woodworkers use 2 start...

    On closer inspection of the Veritas inset vise, the description confirms the threaded rod is 1/2" (12.7mm). Thanks for the quick feedback. I must agree that 8mm is likely too weak.

  4. Would this work as tail vise scew? (T8, 4 Start acme thread, 3D Printer Screw)

    I'm drawing up plans for a woodworking bench and have been debating different approaches for a tail or wagon vise. I really like the simplicity and smaller form factor of the Veritas Inset Vise, but...

    Thanks again for the feedback guys. Great points all.

    @ Tom - True, but the planning is part of the fun too :) The goal I guess is to not over plan it to the point where it gets too complicated...

    @Glenn - Thanks for the references, that helps at least get be started.

    @Jim - Good point. While I know hardwood would be best, if I use yellow pine would you think that 2" would be adequate or...

    I'm sure this is off topic, but I find it ironic that Hitachi, a Japanese company, owns the Metabo line. Metabo is slang in Japanese for someone with metabolic syndrome and would be akin to calling...
