Small Machine Vice
Ref: HK 1385
If you have ever struggled to position a delicate component in an oversized vice you will find this to be a very useful addition to the workshop. The jaws are 1½" wide, 5/8" deep and open to 1½". The entire vice is just 4 1/8" long, 2 ¾" wide and 1 3/8" high. The fixing hole positions will particularly suit Myford owners but would equally suit any drill, lathe or mill.
The kit includes iron castings for the body and sliding jaw and there is an interesting thrust arrangement to ensure that an even load is maintained. All supporting material is included together with drawings and construction notes.

Swivelling Machine Vice
Ref: HK 1370
Designed by Mr. C. Tidy, this vice is of particular value to owners of small milling and shaping machines. The vice stands just 2 3/8"high, winning at least an inch of precious "daylight" over commercial items of comparable rigidity. The jaws are 2 1/2" wide, opening to 2" and the sliding jaw is of box form to minimise distortion when clamping.
Swivelling 360º, the vice can be accurately set to any angle. The base dimensions are 4 ½" by 6", allowing a wide choice of tenon or locating positions.
The Swivelling Machine Vice is offered as a set of three iron castings, along with all fasteners, steel, phosphor bronze, drawings and constructional notes by Mr. Tidy.
