I saw an awesome video by Hand Tool Rescue of a 100+ year old fractal vise being restored and just had to have one. CAD and 3D printing makes this possible and if you own a 3D printer you can have one too. You won’t believe how awesome this vise design is, it can morph to clamp almost any shape! What do you think of my design? My approach has strengths and weaknesses compared to the other designs on Thingiverse. If you would like to modify it, please remix and share. 0:00 Introduction Hand tool rescue fractal vise restoration video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBeOgGt_oWU 1:12 Other designs on Thingiverse Antique Fractal Vise Replica By Clerick: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4893545 Fractal Vise by Borgey: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4897556 Fractal bench dog/clamp for workmate by acgmcll: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4902085 2:11 What does fractal mean?
