What is the best (most used/usefull) size and type of vice for a bridgeport mill. I recently purchased a ez trak bridgeport mill, which is a cnc'd version of a standard series 1 turret mill, which also retains the manual option via the standard hand wheels.
I would like to be able to hold billet material and also collet blocks to hold shafts for milling keyways.
I have heard the chinese vices can be more hassel than they are worth but there does not seem to be any uk versions. Glacern have a good rep in the US but the UK does not seem to have any import agents yet.
Many thanks
