Nice! The ridgidty of a screwless vise really has a lot of appeal.
Are your B-axis table's dowel holes pretty oversized....like by .005-010"? Mine have what I'd call "extreme slip fit", such that the vise can be visibly rotated around while "located" on the dowels. I just don't like all that slop combined with a single hold-down bolt.
Do you have a photo of your 3-jaw in action? I'm not terribly eager to rip up my B-plate to convert it to an ER system just yet, but a low-profile 3-jaw could be a nice substitute until a stork drops a V2-50 on my porch. : )
Lastly, what is your method for pickup of XYZ? I'd like to do multi-setup (single part) work down the road but I haven't seen much on how folks are doing their pickups and entering them into CAM. On a bigger machine I'd swing an indicator to pick up the part, but with the limited space on my V1 (with the old spindle) there isn't much room to swing an indicator, and the spindle is a bit small (.125") for any edgefinder I've ever seen (and I don't really like edgefinders anywho).
Thanks for the feedback!
