So...I have this here part that I will be running in this set up.....................(ignore the chuck jaws. they are for a different job) ...................And yes, a set of dual station vises would be the best option, but I ain't got any and I'm not buyin' 'em for this job.
I plan on running OP 1 on the left two chucks holding onto about .125". Face mill, profile, drill holes, and chamfer. OP two on the right two chucks. Deck the part to thickness and chamfer. The question I have is due to the "D" shape of the part, will just some soft jaws like I have in the pick work or should I go to pie jaws as I need to orientate the flat? The other question I have is I hardly ever hog material in these 3 jaws. I mainly use them for smallish parts with light machining. I'm wondering how much grip I will have for the profile and hoggin out the window?
TIA..............................
