Bob,
I've seen those collet fixtures in the JTS catalog, don't have an idea what their used for. So, what are they used for?
Is that the hand of HuFlungDung, my boys get a kick out of his cartoon charactor.
I currently use a 4inch vise from JTS that I have been pleased with for $58 & shipping. Same vise that enco sells for $90 or so with the rotory base, I removed the base. They also sell a 3 inch that I've considered. You could really load up a table with those (they must weigh about 15 lbs to 20 lbs each)
Also I've looked at the 4 inch double vises for $157 & shipping. But have never seen one in use here on the cnczone.
Have you ever looked at using fixture offset to do repeat milling at different locations. I played with it and it works welL
Take care
