Aluminum jaws for vice

[Mgdoug3]

I made some aluminum jaws for my new to me Wilton 4" Bullet vise. If I had the right length and width aluminum flat metal, this would have been an easy project. I ended up finding some scrap metal that was close to the size I needed and machined it down to the size I wanted. Overall I'm happy with the result and helped me practice with the mill. The hardest part of the project might be where I keep the jaws and not misplace them.

The tool and die techs had their vise set up just the same. The aluminum jaws make great soft jaws.
