Step-by-Step Guide:

Prepare the Wooden Blocks:

Start by cutting two wooden blocks to the desired size. One will be the vise jaw, and the other will be the vise base. Ensure they are both flat and smooth.
Drill Holes for the Rod:

Measure and mark where you want the rod to go through the vise jaw and base.
Use a drill and appropriate drill bit to make holes through both wooden blocks. Make sure the holes are straight and aligned.
Insert the Rod:

Insert the metal rod or threaded rod through the holes in the vise jaw and base. Ensure it fits snugly but can still move freely.
Secure the Rod:

Use nuts and washers to secure the rod on both ends of the vise jaw and base. Tighten them enough to hold the rod in place but still allow it to rotate.
Attach the Vise Jaw to the Workbench:

Position the vise jaw where you want it on your workbench.
Use wood screws to attach the vise jaw securely to the workbench.
Test the Vise:

Open and close the vise to ensure it moves smoothly.
Adjust the nuts and washers as needed to tighten or loosen the grip of the vise.
Final Touches:

Sand down any rough edges or surfaces to ensure smooth operation.
Apply wood glue to reinforce the joints if desired.
Optional: Add Padding:

To protect your workpieces, you can add soft padding to the vise jaws using leather, rubber, or cork.
And there you have it! With some basic hand tools and materials, you can create your own DIY bench vise for woodworking projects. Remember to take your time, measure accurately, and
