I'm looking for this tool

[Alex793]

Hi everyone, Im new here and I'm looking for a tool I seen in a video but I dont know the exactly name of it:

When he turn the handle, he tighten/loosen the jaws.

What is exactly the name of this tool and where to buy it ? This tool is very useful.

Many thanks.

That's a tooth brush... after use by a hobo?

Never seen one. Can you give us some context? It may be something that someone fabricated for their own need.

Peace,

I have seen one, but for the life of me...I can't remember what it is called

This sort of looks like a hand vise, where you turn the handle to tighten/loosen the jaws. Is this what it did in the video?

 

[daguin]

What is it used for?

Peace,
dave

I don't know the exact name of it.. but I guess you could call it hand operated vise.. or hand held vice. Try the local hardware store they might have something simular

Here is some thing simular Hand Held Vice - Ebay

If it's what I think that it is, it's a hand held vice. you must turn a part of the handheld part for the jaws to move. Not very useful if you have a real vice though

So it would be a simultaneous anti-torque tool then, eh?

I'll check my tool catalogs

Peace,

Dave --
That torque ( moments about a point ) science depends on whether you're on the giving or recieveing end of it....
We needed this after a long week of paying taxes....

Seriously --- I work with an old blacksmith here. I printed the picture and will ask him if he has ever seen anything like this. It appears to me to be a part clamp and part hammer. The blacksmith shop has all sorts of old tools laying around but I've never found one of these.

Bobhaha -- Thanks for seeing the humor

It is a nut clamp for clamping nuts, like Mike & Dave LOL :crackup:

Peace All....
