    Milling vice fixture for setting parts square easily.

    Setting parts square in some types of milling vices can be challenging if they have no centre section. This fixture uses the long solid top of the fixed jaw as a datum. The horizontal part is long & heavy to hold it down in position along the vice jaw. The vertical reference sits well below the jaw & also protrudes above for maximum engagement with the part.
