I read many reviews on this vise but My experience was very good. First all I had to do was tighten everything and give it an oiling well with synthetic 10/30 motor oil and this baby worked just fine. There is a little slop in the cranking of both operations but not enough to bother anything at all. I looked at 20 other versions and this one is the best by far. I recommend it. It is a very good buy and will satisfy just about everybody. Thanks for building a worth while piece of hardware. S Thompson, Oregon

If you expect to get even a slightly good machinist for fifty bucks, you're *$&#. For real. You got no business touching tools. I knew for fifty bucks it-d be rough and it was. Complete disassemble, sanding, lubricating and adding washers or spacers to tighten up tolerances. I got it for milling and drilling a polymer 80% on a standing drill press. It worked good. Not great, but good. I had to be diligent and anticipate where the vises' tolerance problems were and adjust prior to reaching that point in my workpiece. My lowers came with plastic jigs, cuz they're specifically shaped, so using a router on a metal was not an option. Moving forward, I'll just order a metal jig and one that fits it. But this vise is fine where a couple thousandths of an inch of tolerance is allowable.

Pros: - This heavy solid metal device seems very sturdy and well made. I have no worries about its durability. - The mounting slots looked like they might let the bolts slip, but turned out to work great once I had it set up. - The adjusting cranks and compression screws allow for reasonably precise operation over a surprisingly wide range of motion. Cons: - The piece is a little bit tall, be sure you have enough room beneath your drill press before you buy it. - The lower crank is somewhat sticky. Operating it quickly requires so much force that I wind up lifting and shaking the entire drill press (and the workbench it's attached to) if I don't use a second hand to hold it steady. (Still gets the job done though, this is only a minor annoyance) - There were sizable scrap metal chips stuck in the grease in all the mechanisms. It may jam and/or damage itself if you don't clean it before the first time you use it. (Not a problem so long as you notice before you try to use it) Overall a very nice piece of hardware for the price. I am very satisfied with how well it works.

What should you expect for a $50 cross slide vise? For it to be functional, and that's about it. As many reviewers have said, right out of the box, this thing is awful. Very rough movement, long axis screw is slightly warped, and many loose parts. Simply greasing the moving parts and making some minor adjustments works wonders but you'll still probably have to do a little sanding/filing on some rough spots. The slight warp in the long axis screw is manageable for the work I'm doing (lower receiver milling) but would be a deal breaker to anyone doing a lot of milling. But lets' face it, anyone doing a lot of milling shouldn't be looking at $50 vises. My biggest complaint is the long axis handle extends 1.75" below the base (see picture). I would have preferred to mount the vise directly to my press but I've had to improvise to make room to turn the handle. This only seems to be a problem on the smaller, 3" vise. Again, if you're planning on doing a lot of milling, these vises are probably not for you. While better than just using a standard vise, you'll still have to go slow to get accurate passes. Either that or do a bunch of upgrades to fix all of the problems. I'm still very happy with it and am glad I bought it.

another cheap vice I got off amazon came frozen together and had to be disassembled, cleaned and still barely works. pain in the ass. I think I got lucky with this one, works smooth like butter fresh out of the box.

1. The main screw is not center aligned for the top movement. So when the top moves closer to the center, where the top moves closer to the (casting) nut of the bottom, the main top screw misalignment makes it more angularly away from the center line, and hence the top movement cannot be safely moved any further to the center, even though there is distance available distance. We better stop the top movement at a safe place not too near the center, else there will be permanent damage done on the top's cast nut, due to the misalignment getting more pronounced at closer distances. I had to augment a wooden spacer between the top jaws, in order to hold something to be right below the drill. 2. The bottom alignment is another bad story. the cast nut for the bottom is a peg that is really not having enough metal in its cubic dimension. Dont know why they couldnt have made it a larger cube. The small cube nut is threaded so close to one side of the cube, in an attempt to correct the center alignment here as well. The cube nut is attached to the top platform using just a peg in a socket method, and that peg is so so loose in the socket itself. If you attempt to overhaul and remove all and put back all, then remember the direction of the cube nut in its socket. It is off centered, and if you put the cube nut the wrong way, it will cause more and more mis alignment. 3. There is also a rotation play on the bottom main screw, before the bottom even starts moving this way or that way. The center misalignment problem is there in this screw/cubenut as well. probably thats why that cube nut peg is kept so loose in socket so that it doesnt break when user moves the mis aligned main screws. The object holding jaw is another story. 4. The fixed half of the jaw doesnt come any where near to the center where the drill bit comes down. so, if you really want to drill something small, you are out of luck unless you augment the gap with some additional stuff along with the object, in order to get the object held under the drill bit. 5. The top screw tightening is showing resistance at one side, for every turn of the handle. this means the main screw of the top is bent. It can be very well noticed if we look at the handle holding support plate area, while we turn the handle. the handle and the main screw is rotating eccentrically, indicating that the main screw is bent with respect to the cast nut. 6. The top movement handle will start hitting the bottom's friction setting screws as the top approaches the center. They have used friction screws that are longer than necessary. smaller length screws could have prevented this, but before this, they have to first fix the mis alignment in order to even allow the top to go closer to the center. 7. Packaging is absolutely foolish. Dont know why they are trying to save thermocoal materla. The item was packed diagonally, with the most important main screw almost touching the thin sheet of the packing box itself. there is only about 1/2 mm of thermocaol in the corner. and thats where the handle screw is ending. The one I received has already taken bad hit on the corner, and the main screw end where it becomes the handle screw was already damaged on its handle screw thread. I had to re thread that part of the main screw in order to fit the handle and its nut. They have to revisit their design. they have to re-position the cast nut for correct alignment, do appropriate corrections on the handle holder plate for center alignment, increase the cast nut cube volume for the bottom nut, more quality control on the main screw bends, increase the dimensions of the packing material and box. The castings of the top and bottom was otherwise not sufficient.
