| Darren:
I know it's a simple job, but thanks for showing this. It's something I need to make as well..... :dremel: |
| HS93:
Ok whats in the syringe..Is it cutting fluid of some sort .. Peter |
| bogstandard:
Yes Peter, It is a very high pressure cutting oil. I am tight as a ducks a**e, and that is watertight. If I can get away with using a couple of drops instead of a dollop, I will do. I don't know when I will be able to obtain some more. Bogs |

John, A curiosity question. Why not put the non-moveable jaw against the finished surface of the angle plate? It would seem to me that the vise would be lined up better. Also, is that a bit of surface rust on that angle plate? ::) Bernd |
| bogstandard:
Bernd, I thought of the other way, but as it was, I struggled by myself for nearly an hour to get the thing on there. It would have meant me swinging the angle plate thru 180degs to get the face I required to the top. My body nearly gave out, so as it was safe, and accurate, I left it alone. Job is done now, so it must have been right. Yes, that is rust, not bad, seeing it stood outside in all weathers for about 6 months. I think I gave Ralph the good one. It is only on the surface, it will easily come off with a hammer and chisel, with a bit of angle grinding thrown in for good measure. Actually it is just a minor patina, it looks worse than it is.
