    Re: King Rich KRV-2000 Knee Mill CNC Conversion

    Finished up the restoration of my Dawn 5SP Vise. Got the paint colour completely wrong but otherwise the new soft jaws and the jaw alignment works great. I made a transfer punch from a 5/16 UNC bolt to mark the position of the tapped holes on the back of the new Aluminium soft jaws. It has a 4mm hex milled to fit a 4mm socket that fits down a blind 5/16 tapped hole. A hexagon ER32 collet holder held the bolt in the 3 Jaw chuck on the lathe and for milling the flats.
