I finally took the dive and purchased a milling vise. It is a 4 inch and makes my machine look like a toy. I had to remove the tailstock to be able to tighten the vise. My problem is when I set it on the machine, everything fits nicely t-nuts and bolts and alignment pins. The problem! The vise has a rock, the machine is about 20 years old and all I ever used on it was toe clamps and a mini pallet. I put a indicator o it and found I have 1 1/2 thousands front to back but side ways it has about .100? My question would be should I take a skim cut to true it up or ant suggestion would be appreciated. The machine is a column machine.
