Wilton Drill Press Vise Minimum Lift Mod

[Paul Jones]

Great idea and easy enough to do just as a general improvement to the vises. I have a similar vise for the drill press that could use this improvement. By the way, replacing the existing bottom clamping plate on a lathe tailstock with "monster sized one" greatly improves the tailstock lock-down capability and prevents any possible movement when drilling with large drills.
