Vertical vice Hello everyone.
Legacy sells their vertical vice, to hold
the work piece so you can do dove tails and box joints. I would like to
remind everyone here ,that you can make your own jigs to do the same
things. This is my second Vertical vice I've made, and it works
pretty good. (of a matter of coarse there still is some room for
improvement, but that's for another day.) I have only made box joints on
this jig so far, but I don't see any reason why I couldn't do other
types of wood joints, using this jig.
Its a simple design, made out of 3/4"
plywood scraps, and two clamps. to hold the work in place on the Legacy.
I use two wood clamps to attach this jig on to the Legacy, as well
as tendons on the ends of the wood legs to hold the jig in place against
legacy's rails.
I have used this jig with both the template
follower and using it free hand, indexing it with the scale on the
Legacy's rails.
If any one has some comments or suggestions,
I would like to talk about it.
Talk
to you all later.
