Here is my latest from a friend.
2 saws and 5 hours, produced a ruff blank
Watching Tom's clip how to square up stock, now have a piece to work from.
I ran into a problem, and it could be me not sure yet. Will figure it out after I finish this project.
Primary investigation; the milled blank mounted in the vise. Will not tamp down on the rear parallel bar, slides in and out, no up & down movement.
Messing around using a 123 block found it did the same. I reversed the front and back removal jaw faces.
That allowed the 123 block to be set as expected, did not help the milled piece, not surprise regarding that.
Two thoughts, 1 I may have the problem cured, 2 my vise is mounted on a swivel base. considering removing same and direct mount it. However before I do that I think I will retry square another piece of materiel, because the 123 block worked..
Any comments ?
