    Ordered that vice and a new plate for leveling it.


    Just saw this on FaceBook. No idea why I haven't seen this idea posted around before. Would have saved hours.
    Will be testing it with this new vice.

    Wait. Could have just printed a holder for the part and mounted it onto the base of the cnc machine....
    Well at least the new vice will be a good paper weight...

    Thanks.
    I have emailed them to see if they can confirm what size.
    The gap at the top is 8.5mm and the OD of the threads is 7mm.
    Can't pull them out atm as the machine is running.
