Tools and Hardware Reviews of Universal 4" Cross Slide Drill Press ViseCustomer Review: A waste of cast iron Summary: 1 Stars
Very poor quality. The ways were machined poorly (very rough and uneven machining with lots of chatter) and the adjusting screws were cheap. I was unable to get the excessive play out of the ways, even after much tinkering. There is also a lot of end play in the lead screws, especially the bottom axis. The bottom axis on my vise slides back and forth about 1/8" without turning the lead screw. This makes it almost impossible to position anything in the vise reliably. After taking the vise apart, I noticed that one of the adjustment shims was drilled completely through so the adjustment screw wasn't pushing on the shim, but directly on the way itself. I was going to bring the whole thing to my relatives machine shop to re-mill the entire vise, but I think it would be easier to build a whole new vise from scratch instead of fixing this one. Don't waste your money, no matter how low the price.
