Finishing the first op on the Wilton vise soft jaws. Remember, I’m learning here. Speeds and feeds are far from optimal but I just gotta jump in and get some experience. It’s a good looking part to me and will work great on clamping things. #abom79 #cncmachining #brasssoftjaws #milltronics #trm3016 | Abom79

We’re working on the swivel base for the Hardtail vise. Great old school job for the Pacemaker. #abom79 #manualmachining #manualmachinist #machineshop #americanpacemaker #lathe #lathework #hardtailvise | Abom79

It’s definitely more challenging getting a vise trammed in on the Flex with its enclosure vs an open knee mill, but it didn’t take me long and I managed to get all three of my vises in-line and parallel with each other. I think later I’ll machine some keys for the bottom of them and see if that will get them all lined up perfectly. I’m continuing with my setup to hold a 12’ long shaft for some keyway milling. #abom79 #machining #machineshop #machinisttools #machinevise #indicator #starrett #dial

Shaping the left side boss to finish up this portion of the Hardtail vise. Running and operating this old vintage machine is purely therapeutic & fun! This was a great project during our wild 2 day shutdown because of the snow and ice here in Northwest Florida.
