Dumb question. What you are doing for the hole for the 1/4" smart stop dowel pins used on the carve smart jaws? Are you drilling and reaming for press fit or slip fit?

I need to pick up a pair of these. Forgot what a pita it is pull jaws off and replace with soft-jaws then change back. But I am stunned at the cost for the hardened Jaw set tho!
About same price to buy another vise and use one for carve smart and other vise for hardened Steel jaws.
I bought 2 Tormach CNC vises about a year and a half ago and immediately took the hardened steel jaws out and replaced them with aluminum soft jaws.
Aluminum jaws are much easier on tools if you program a bad move.
