Hi Over in my other thread about building Nemetts 15cc engine I got slightly O.T talking about how I set up a bodge DRO on my mill. rather than drag that one any further off topic I thought I'd start a new thread. after some thought I came up with this. the L/H clamp is fitted with the bolt that holds the rubber chip guard thingy on, the R/H is fixed to an existing adjustable travel stop it seems to work so all I have to do is dig out the dremel and hack the lower moving jaw off :loco: these things only cost £10 in lidl so I cant lose much. cheers Roy |

Hack those inside jaws off on the top before you skewer yourself reaching across the table :dremel: Nice job! Eric |

Are you able to fit your vise crosswise on the table? |

Roy. Today's the day! You've given me the nudge I needed...... :thumbup: New Lidl vernier, ready for cropping........ Thankfully, my mill has the table T slot. Should make adapting easier...... Just doesn't seem right, chopping up a brand new, unused piece of kit! ::) David D |
