Milling Vise Stop

[Billh51]

Nice work T J. I think you will find your stop very useful at times. I made one that's somewhat similar a while back and I use mine quite a bit.

I had only ever seen work stops of this type before:



I have to admit that I like this clamp on style better for most work so will be making one soon.

Why on God’s green earth would he buy one when he can buy a bunch of expensive tools and make one?

I like the 5 axis stops., but these little ones are great too. Nice work. Looks good.
It's more enjoyable to use a tool that one makes.

I'd think the knurled knob would be better replaced with an Allen capscrew, it would not be hard to move the stop if it got accidently bumped, being just finger(s) tightened.

That's true. I've thought about milling a screwdriver slot in the screw, but haven't gotten around to it.

Here ya go. Now you have one. No more excuses.
