Ive been ignoring a problem when milling but it would be a lot easier and safer without! Parts are moving which is giving me a bad finish, plus broke some cutters.
Im using a 3" tool makers vice and I am realising that smooth flat jaws are not gripping parts well. If my work is not parallel I use a bit of sandpaper against the work, but still had it move.
Do I need a proper milling vice?
Im using it vertically on lathe so would like to keep the weight down, while being able to hold a good range of sizes.
