BAZMAK-A very,very useful Vise for the benchmill

[10K Pete]

I have the material on the bench to make a vise of this style, but now that
I have seen your latest model, Baz, I'm going to shamelessly make one just
like yours! I love it. It addresses all the issues I've been working through
trying to figure out the details.

May I copy (sort of) your design?

I would be very pleased.Thats what its all about
If you look at Bazmak diary of a V block I made 2 x 45o plates from 6mm thk
to locate in the centre T slot.Found these very useful for chamfering
long pieces.IE the ram on the shaper.I have just purchased an adjustable
vernier angle V block should also serve the same purpose.Will post a photo when it arrives

Can maybe be improved using the twin T nut from Harold hall?

I don't want to try to teach people how to suck eggs, but by looking at commercial split vices you can get an idea of how they achieved the anti lift jaws.

My large pair (both the same)

And how they got over the problem of anti lift AND closing up the jaws with just one screw.
