Part 4 of the Tormach Garage Series dives into the important tools needed for proper workholding and setting up work offsets on your mill. That is done through the use of a vise, or in some cases multiple vises. A vise is similar to a vise you can find on your dad's workbench. Instead of being permanently bolted in place, it is secured to the table of the mill with bolts, and it has to be aligned to the spindle head. And because your vise will have to secure a wide variety of materials, of varying thicknesses and dimensions, there are many jaw configurations to attach to the vise such as: hard jaws, soft jaws, pin jaws, v-block jaws, talon grip jaws, and versa-grip jaws. Before securing the vise, you have to make sure there are no burrs or chips on the underside. A machinist stone is used to clean off the bottom of the vise and to maintain the surface of the mills table. The vise can then be secured to the table, but it need to be trammed. Tramming a vise ensures that the back jaw of the vise is perfectly square with the spindle head. An indicator, secured to a mag base and attached to the spindle is used to make sure that the rear jaw is perfectly parallel. If you have a thin piece of material, a surprisingly effective workholding technique involves paper tape and super glue. Heat resistant tape can be used in place of paper tape is you are using coolant. Fixture plates, like the ones sold by Saunders Machine Works, are convenient because of their versatility and allow for more Z travels with their low-profile workholding. https://tormach.com/smw-1100-tool-pla...
