| 5/5/04 The package from Enco arrives. |
|
| Hmmmm... almost too big. Heavy too... | |
| Outside slot and I still can't get full reach so I will only be able to use about 3-1/2 inches of the thing. | |
| 10/24/2004 Finally decided to see what I could do about using the table keys with the vise. They were too big to fit the tee slots. I was afraid they were hardened. I found I could easily notch one with a file so decided to try milling them to fit the slots. Here's one done and the other not. |
|
| Ready to do the second one. | |
| In the process... see the smoke? | |
| It was productive. Here the keys are in the vise bottom. | |
| Another view | |
| They span about 5-3/4 inches. | |
| Using the runout gauge on the face of the fixed jaw. | |
| One end to the other... | |
| Yields .0005 across 5-1/2 inches. | |
