Question on the DX6... Since the screw is secured in the back (traditional position), that means the
screw has to be long enough to go the entire length of the vise, plus stick out, plus stick out for the handle.
Is it possible the only difference between a regular DX6 and a Reverse is that some Schmoe put
the screw in backwards? Are the bearing surfaces on the screw machined to go both ways???
From the way the screw sits, they could easily make a forward/reverse vise VERY easily...
I haven't looked, but does the "reverse" cost more than than the traditional???...
Completely OT, but sort of related.. I scored qty 10 D688 rebuild kits on E-bay for $110.
