Tool Makers V-Blocks

[rossbotics]

Over the weekend I was thinking about what tool I didn't have as far as machine shop tooling, On several occasions I have had the need for a pair of small V-Blocks just to fit the mill vise, I went to the steel rack where I keep my small pieces and found a piece of 4140 1.000" x 1.500" X 4.000", so I cut it in half and machined the blocks to the specs I wanted, I stamped the numeral 1 on one end of each block for a reference then oil hardened and tempered them, I cleaned them up and ground them together making a matched pair, I didn't take any manufacturing photos but took a few photos of the finished blocks and the cad drawing.

As always thanks for looking and happy machining
