How to draw a Bench vice Frame on AUTOCAD

Vice Body
Draw a box of 144*58*64 Go to Home Click on BOX Select Box Box will look like this

Go to front side of the box and edit it. Draw two rectangle on the right uppermost and left uppermost corner The rightmost corner rectangle is 22*36 and the leftmost corner rectangle is 26*36 Draw a line joining the leftmost corner point of the rightmost rectangle to the rightmost corner of the leftmost rectangle.

It will create 4 regions in the front face. Select the center portion and press pull it by 80mm in z direction by changing the view from front to 3D view. The final figure so generated will be like this

Next go to right hand side view.

Draw a rectangle of 20*6 on the left side as well as on the right side. It will divide the smaller region into three parts. Select the middle part of the portion and press pull it to -150, save it and again go to RHS view and draw a line with of 12 go horizontal with it and go vertical at a distance of 16 then go horizontal by 8, then go vertical down by 8, then go horizontal by 8 and vertical down by 8 and horizontal by 16.

Again go to the point where we have taken vertical distance by 16 and repeat the procedure to complete the left side of it. Then trim the vertical 16 line. This will generate a region press pull it by -150. Then figure will look like this

Then go to RHS view and draw a line holding the upper edge which was edited before and go horizontal by 8 and then vertical by 20. From that point draw a circle of radius of 10. Then press pulls it by changing the view to 3D. The body so generated will look like this.

After that go to front view and draw a rectangle on the rightmost corner (2*52). Then press and pull that region generated in z axis by 70 units by switching into the 3D mode. Now again go to front view and draw a line from the corner most left point by going horizontal by 16 and again going vertical down from the corner point by 16. Join the two points which were drawn previously to make a triangle. Then press and pull the triangle by -70 by changing the view to 3D.

Then the frame will look like this.

The last thing remaining in the frame is 4 tapped holes. For this we have to switch to the bottom view and draw a rectangle (20*38) on the leftmost upper corner and then draw a line from in up or down by 10.With this point draw a circle of radius 3.Repeat the step for downward left . After that on rightmost upper corner draw a rectangle of 20*36 and then go up by 10 and a circle of radius 3. Repeat the steps in downward right. Then trim the area near the 4 circles.

After trimming go to press and pull option and click on 4 circles simultaneously and pull it in z axis by 16 units by switching into the 3D view. The figure will be like this.

This completes the holding portion of the bench wise.

Sliding Jaw
Draw a box 64*32*45 It will be as look as shown below

Now go to RHS view and on the southwest corner draw a rectangle of 24.25*9 from it and again draw a rectangle on the opposite corner with same dimension. After that, extrude it in z axis by 40 units. The part will be like this

Again go to RHS view and from the southwest corner point go up by 10 then horizontal by 5 units. Repeat same for southeast corner point. After that draw a line from the south west corner point in horizontal direction by 32 and then go up by 20 units. After that draw a circle of radius 16 and then from the two points previously obtained draw the tangents to the circle. Trim the other construction lines. Extrude the area which is outside the line which is tangent to the circle in z axis by 22 units.

The part will be as shown.

Now again go to the center point of the circle and draw another circle of diameter 12 and extrude the circle in z axis by 22 units. It will be as shown.

Now go to top face and draw a line in the southwest corner in upward direction by 32 and then horizontal by 21, then enter a hole of diameter of 6 and depth of 9 units.

Its as shown.

Now go to the bottom side and draw a rectangle of 15.5*32.

Now from any two opposite corner points, go up by 8 and go horizontal by 8. Hence we will get two points. Draw a circle of diameter 8 and then extrude it in z axis by 16 units. It will be as shown.

This completes the sliding jaw part.

Handle
Handle part which is used for tightening. First of all draw the base cylinder of diameter 12 and 6 height.

Then put another cylinder of diameter 8 and height 5.

Now put another cylinder of diameter 12 and height 11.

Now reinsert another cylinder with diameter 16 and height 82.

Now again insert cylinder with diameter 12 and height 10.

Again draw a cylinder of diameter of 18 and height 24.

After that define the work axis of the cylinder, then draw a line selecting the top corner point and go downward by 12 units. Now draw a circle of diameter 6 and then extrude it in both directions by 50 units. After that, draw two spheres on the corner of the extended shaft. The final handle part will be as shown.

This finishes all parts of bench vice parts.
