    Fixture design tips

    Hello,

    I'm relative new to the trade and struggling with designing a fixture for a part.

    This is going to be a small production run so will eventually make a pallet.

    The part is about 85x110x19mm made of 20mm thick stock, flat bar.

    Today OP1 is facing the backside and contour around the sides down 15mm.
    Then I flip it onto a fixture with mitee bite clamps and do the rest of the sides and "inside".

    I'm having trouble with the alignment and get a thin line on the vertical sides when contouring in OP2.

    Any tips and tricks of how to make this fixture better?

    I have thought of buying 25mm stock and doing the inside/outside on OP1 and flipping it onto a fixture for facing and chamfering the bottom. Good idea?
