Eric, I live 20 minutes drive away from RDG, I can get you one and post it if you like.

I didn't mention this time that they can be bolted or clamped to your mill table to hold things perfectly vertical for milling, or can also be used on a surface grinder or shaper for doing the same thing. Or even on your surface plate for marking up. Can't think of anything else just yet, but I am sure there are a lot more uses.

It is a real universal tool.

We may end up doing that... probably be a few months before I can get the cash together.

It is your own fault Mr Bogs,  if you let me buy you that lathe in the damaged crate you could have had your four jaw permanently mounted on one! :beer:

Mind you I do agree they are darn heavy, I put mine of the floor once but never again, now it is either on the lathe or on its special shelf which is the same height. :med:
