Safe bench vice tool
Unsafe bench vice tool
Millions of poorly designed bench vice tools are sold all over the world.
Problem 1: If people turn the handle, their fingers can get trapped between the handle and the [movable claw part]. The distance between the handle and movable claw part must be greater than the thickness of an adult human finger.
Problem 2: If people open the movable claw part all the way out, it can fall out, causing injury due to its weight.
Make a bench vice tool safer
Tools you will need:
- Paint
To make the front of the movable claw part flat, you will need to do the following:
1. File off the bump.
2. File the edges and corners of the front face.
3. Paint the front claw part.
4. Weld a spot on the movable claw part so it cannot fall off.
