    The pieces were cut out of larger plate with a jigsaw so they were all kinds of wonky before I started on them in the mill. the current state it they're pretty dang square now. They're going to get massively modified so I needed a good starting point. Now that i have that, I can see what else I can learn HAHA Thanks again for the help!

    I made one like that years ago, I wound up breaking all the handles off with a hammer and after welding them on and bending them I chunked it and went back to the one that came with the vise. They are handy though :D

    What do you think the degree of difficulty is on making a set of jaws like this for a vise for round objects? Any suggestions on how to go about it without CNC?

    Fly cutter, boring bar, you’d have to take small cuts to get to your desired diameter.

    Got good news from the radiation doctor. No more radiation or chemo . Come back and see him in 3 months. Now if I can just grow my hair back and get some strength going I should be good. Side of effects from brain radiation were ruff. Thanks for the well wishes guys.

    Let me know what the secret to growing hair back is, mine fell out for no apparent reason and there’s no sign of it coming back :rofl:
