Description

The precision 3" Kurt-style milling vise includes a swivel base.

The top, bottom of vise bed, gib, jaws, swivel base, and all plate mounting surfaces are ground. The jaws are hardened and ground. The detachable swivel base allows 360 degree rotation of the vise.

The vise jaws are 3.1" wide, 1.0" deep, and open 2.85". The vise is 10" long. Without the base, the vise is 2.87" high. With the base, the vise is 3.87" high.

Without the swivel base, the ways of the vise are parallel to the base of the vise within 0.0006" in 4". The jaws are perpendicular to the ways within 0.002" in 4". With the swivel base installed, the ways of the vise are parallel to the base of the vise within 0.0008" in 4".

The set of ten pairs of thin parallels come in a fitted case. The parallels are 1/8" thick and 3" long. The heights are 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", 7/8", 1", 1-1/8", 1-1/4", 1-3/8", 1-1/2", and 1-5/8". They are made of high grade alloy steel hardened to 52 to 58 Rc. The top and bottom surfaces are parallel within 0.0002". The pairs are matched in height within 0.0004".

The vise mounting kit contains the items needed to mount the milling vise on a mini mill. The T-slot nuts fit 7/16" (12 mm) T-slots. All the parts are hardened for long life. The vise mounting kit includes 2 each studs, T-slot nuts, flange nuts, and hardened washers.

The DVD, by Jose Rodriguez, provides a 4 hour introduction to the use of the milling machine. The DVD has a menu that makes it easy to return to parts of the video that you want to see again.

Jose says: "This video tapes was just produced in 99 as a result of the most ambitious project undertaken by the author. It features his shop made modelmaker's variable speed milling machine. The video is basically a complete basic milling operations course but rather than boring the viewer with dozens of unrelated procedures, you get to see the author produce a dovetailed tool block for his quick change tool system he designed for his 7 x 10 mini lathe. This is a four hour presentation that will leave you asking for more, even after four fun packed hours."

This package is a $172.85 value. Get everything you need to use a precision milling vise and save $33.90.

This product happens to fit perfectly in a flat-rate Priority Mail box, which costs only $13.95 (plus $0.50 for insurance) for delivery anywhere in the United States. For most areas, this is considerably less expensive than UPS ground service, and delivery is usually in 2-5 days.

To obtain this low rate, when you reach the shopping cart page, select Priority Mail Large Flat Rate Box in the Ship By box.

Be careful, this bundle pretty well fills the box, so we can't add much else unless it is very small. If you order more than will fit in the box, it will delay your order while we check with you. If in doubt, choose Priority Mail. We will use a Flat Rate Box if we can and adjust the shipping charge accordingly.

This is the same vise that Phase II has been selling (with their logo) for a number of years.

We got a good deal on these vises through a different supplier so we can pass the savings along. But all vise prices are going up, so we don't expect a price as good as this in the future.

Take a look at our vise comparison page before you choose a vise.
