UPDATE 2022-11-02:

A number of people have reported that the clips are a little too thick to insert without a lot of force or sanding. I added a version of the clip that is 0.6mm thinner. It is named ThinnerClip.stl. You may wish to print one of each first to determine which works best for you.
There are a few remixes with a longer handle floating around. I created one and added it with the name longer_vise_handle.stl. You can print either the standard one (vise_handle.stl) or the new one. You don't need both.

UPDATE 2022-08-04: Based on feedback, I reuploaded mlt_sliding_jaw.stl so that it will load into the slicer in its proper print orientation by default. It is exactly the same part - just reoriented.

I really like this vise by TheGoofy and use it frequently. I would prefer that it open/close more quickly so I designed this remix. The only change is multi-start threads on the rods and gears.

On the original design a single rotation of the knob moves the jaws about 1.3mm. In the new version, a single rotation moves about 5.4mm. I used a 4-start thread with a very similar overall pitch, so roughly 4x on the speed is what I was shooting for. You can see it in action here:

Other than the two updated parts, all of the other components are unchanged. I included all the original STL files, but replaced the STLs for the two parts I redesigned. I also included the Fusion 360 file with the redesigned parts.

There are also several variants that you may print in place of the standard parts:

There is a longer version of the handle (longer_vise_handle.stl)
There is a thinner version of the clips (ThinnerClip.stl)

Post-Printing

Please look at the notes on the original design to see notes from the creator. Here is a link to his great video on how the vise was designed. It also shows how to print/assemble it starting at 6:51.
