YouTube's Mr. Pete222 just finished a 10 part series where he built a slide lock drill press vise that i decided to copy.
My drill press table is a piece of hot rolled plate that I faced with a shell mill. Its flat enough for a drill press anyway.
Jaws are cold rolled 1.25 square with some all thread and drill rod.
After machining i caustic blued some of the parts ( do gunsmithing as a hobby so i blue stuff sometimes)
The bluing turned out really well mine is not quite as well done as Mr Pete's, I cut some corners.
