In the stuff I inherited from my father was a pair of v blocks with no clamps. I occasionally search ebay fro replacements but never found any – until I came close today…but they are the wrong size. And I don't quite get the way the sizes are quoted.
Mine are L=50.11mm, H=34.83mm, W=44.18..Any ideas on a pair of source of suitable clamps would be welcome !

Fabricate your own or cut from a bit of plate is an easy option

I never use the clamps, if I'm using the blocks (almost never) for somethjing serious on the mill I use a strap clamp.
