@@MattysWorkshop Ayy, anytime, seeing another whacky machinist brother is always a pleasure... How would i not be watching... Also, a thought... That vise stop could impart brinelling onto the fixed jaw... The hardened ball bearing with its point contact is just the worst type of pressure pad for important surfaces like vise jaws and precision plates... I would much rather see a bronze or brass pad or tip atop the screw... A ball is an implement of destruction here, even with gentlest pressures... First of, the vise jaw is likely hard itself, and a ball point contact with a hard surface cant really be a decent friction retention system either... Kinda like a carbide endmill in a drill chuck... Just waiting to slip at the first opportunity, unlike a soft wide pad(2mm contact is wide compared to a ball point)... The stop is lovely, but the locking mechanism is a bit unfortunate according to what i have learned over last decade and a half... Its why people grind down ball bearings so they can put the flat against the moving jaw and use the ball end to clamp down on the unevenly shaped part... You can use a plain ball bearing, but it will damage both the part and the jaw... Since the part is being worked, the half-ball is only needed until you get a flat reference surface against the jaw... You know the trick im talking about... Same idea as a copper wire, but its a ball bearing...

Gday Steve, the kits are really well put together and plenty of material to work with, thanks for watching mate, Cheers

Gday, This is a really good build and its not hard but I still screwed it up🤦🏻, Enjoy making it mate, Cheers

You did not screw it up. You altered the original design.

Thanks very much Chuck, wish I had this when I built the Webster engines mate, Thanks for watching, Cheers

Gday, I do think we all just use plans as a guide, I honestly didn’t give a slitting saw a thought and know I wish I did, thanks for watching, cheers

Hi Matty, I ended up adding 4 x M8 threaded holes in a rectangle around the original central M8 hole and added 6 x 6mm alignment holes on one side - I don't use Instagram and couldn't find an email address to send a photo to - there's not much to it anyway, just turned into a micro fixture plate :)

Gday, there are still very kind people in the world and the support we have had here has been very humbling mate, one day I might fix that hole but then it might come in handy to, thanks for watching, cheers
