oxtoolco | Hermann Schmidt Vise Collaboration @oxtoolco | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 17 hours ago
The short story is I bought this vise on Ebay as a speculation. I ended up getting if for a fraction of the new price. To my surprise and delight the vise was in excellent shape but badly stained. Now, I really didn't need a second grinding vise, so on a chance I asked the great folks at Hermann Schmidt workholding hschmidt.com if they would be interested in helping out in a collaboration to ultimately give the vise away to someone coming up in the trades. You will be happy to know they were more than willing. Yes we are giving this vise away to an apprentice in the trade! If you know someone you would like to nominate that would make good use of this Hermann Schmidt V04 grinding vise free of charge put the nominee's name and a link in the video comments. You can also send me an email if you prefer. IMPORTANT! The parameters are, the nominee must be actively involved in the machining trade or an apprenticeship program and specifically doing precision grinding and tool room work. The ideal nominee should have a social media presence (YouTube/Instagram) I can evaluate, be actively sharing their journey in the machining trade, interacting with peers, and hopefully proudly showing some of their work. Help me find the perfect person to give this fine tool away to.
