When I first started to upload models onto the site, I uploaded a large size Sliding Jaw Vice/Vise, I've been learning a lot of things with the design process and now think I have a very user friendly vice, I try to design any model so that there is no need for supports etc and that's a good point with this kind of vice as there are moving parts.

The initial vice sliding jaw just sat on top of the body and any flex when tightening onto an object came from the the threaded screw, this is now eliminated as the sliding jaw now runs within the rails of the main body, a much better solution, another feature is that the grub screw to hold the threaded screw drive in place is now underneath the sliding Jaw eliminating the collar on the front as on previous models, the final new feature is adding a recess to the actual thread for the grub screw to locate, some very useful additions I think.

To assemble this vice, slide the sliding jaw into position, then glue the inserts on the threaded end cap and push into the main body and secure with elastic bands or similar and let it dry, then screw in the threaded drive and secure with an M5 Grub Screw, I always run an M5 Allen head bolt or standard bolt through the threads first just to clean the threads the screw in the grub screw until it meets resistance in the recess of the threaded drive and back off for a smooth action.

That's about it really, another useful vice for the tool cupboard.

Prints as in the screenshot of the print preview, no support needed, I print with PLA and Standard infills, It could be made stronger by printing with stronger material and higher percentage Infills of course.

Thanks for Looking.
