I bought this mill vise from Precision Matthews for $160.
PM High Precision Mill Vise
I bought it based on my experience with their ultra high precision mill vise that I bought to use with my 9x35 knee mill. That was a very nice vise but costs $350.
PM Ultra High Precision Vise
Given my experience with the high precision vise just through cleaning it up, I should have bitten the bullet and gotten the ultra high precision vise.
There's a void in the casting at a bad spot.
The internal threads look like trapezoid threads but the screw threads look like standard pointed threads.
The divot where the half sphere sits in on the casting isn't machine at all, just the rough casting. The half sphere is very small.
