[Grant NicholasParticipant @grantnicholas81434]

Gents

Your advice once again please. This time its on Milling Vice's.

Which one should I get to suit a Warco WM16 Mill with a table size of 700mm x 180mm 3 T-Slots.

Thanks In Advance

I have the 4" from Arc Euro which fits quite well & reasonably priced… halfway down page… # 130 – 040 – 00800 which has done admirably so far, admittedly have had to tweak it to eliminate some jaw lift ( seems common on this type of vice ) & fitted T slot locating bar.

Have put a precision type 2 vice on my wish list for next year… # 130 – 040 – 02000… maybe others who have this type already can give you ( and me ) further info on it's performance

For me, Think about the vice jaws. I prefer jaws with both vertical and horizontal grooves to hold round components. Additional jaws can be a bit pricy!

I bought the Warco 80mm vice for my WM16. I’m very happy with it. It’s nicely made, it works well, and it’s just the right size for the mill.
