Does anyone have a clever way to clamp a piece of round stock lengthwise in the mill vise if the centerline of the object is higher than the vise jaws? I need to drill and ream some holes in 5" OD pipe, and would normally secure it with hold downs, but wondered if someone had some great trick for doing it more easily.
I don't know how I ever clamped short pieces in my horizontal bandsaw until I had a half circle of heavy pipe to do the job, for example - and wondered if there's some great trick or jig I'm missing for this application.
