I think earlier I advised you to not get any bigger than a 4" vise, but that was before you decided to buy a big knee mill with a table that needs a big six incher!! The key issues to look for on a vise like that are checking that the vise ways are fully parallel with your table, and that your movable jaw doesn't "jump" up any measurable amount when you clamp onto a work piece!!! #Post#: 64846-------------------------------------------------- Re: "Machinist thread" (please join in) Vertical Mill s & metal lathes, tool talk...ect By: Jim Date: August 4, 2024, 9:23 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Gettin' shed envy here Bruce ***************************************************** (DIR) Previous Page (DIR) Next Page
