So I'm now the proud owner of a horizontal mill that will be here in a few weeks.
Time to tool this sucker up.
I love Chick vises but I dont think they will be versatile enough for what we plan to do with the machine.
Orangevise wont reply to my emails so they are out.
KURT CTHDL644J 6" Tombstone vise with hardjaws is an option for just over $9000 per tombstone
Teco has their version thats about $200 cheaper per tombstone
What other options am I missing?
Primarily will be cutting Acetal/tecaform blue. We do lots of dovetail type clamping with custom jaws in chick vises now and it works but its a pain to setup and maintain different size jaws.
Unless someone has the cad models for the jaws they want to give or sell me...chick is probably out.
