The reason I ask is that the rear bar on my stop is .75 dia., turned from .875 square where it mounts to the rear of the vise. The last thing you want is a stop that feels springy when you push a part against it.

Tom,
Ah, I see what you're saying. I'll need to do some stress tests on it and see how it performs. I thought 1/2" would be plenty stout but maybe not.
Thanks for the comments.
