Good job Pat, that was what I was trying to say, just not very well!
Kd - I'm very glad that it helped! I still need to put those cheap calipers on it as I've found that my eyeballs don't read to thou's

Hah, yeah. The only way I had such rapid success was because I had another pair of eyes looking at the problem.
As long as I was at it, though, I decided to set about making new collars that cover the entire length of the shaft between the handle and the vise body. This will be a fun adventure. The ones that came with it are missing some graduations and don't look all that good.
