  I have a mini mill but my existing vice is just junk. This milling vice is a highly functional and was in my budget. (Steel version on amazon for reference: http://amzn.to/28MwWtd) The part that makes this design strong is the steel plates cut to size and glued in plate to distribute forces. Check out the picture of the tin can I was able to smash. I've attached a printable layover sheet for the face plates. Another cool thing about this vice is that you can use in reverse for inside clamping of large objects. Also, the main lead screw doesn't move in and out as the slide moves which makes the mill handle underneath more accessible.
