I bowled add this to the table on my good old Bridgeport, squared it up and ran two different types of dial gauges all over it. All I can say is if anyone else had a problem with one of these vices the Chinaman who made mine must've woke up on the right side of the bed that day. Have I ever purchased a poor quality Chinese Milling vise? Heck yes, but that was several years ago. I can't find anything to complain about on this vice!
