Hello,
I have just bought a vice of the type with a screw that pulls down the movable jaw. I would like to make a pair of soft jaws from some 15 mm aluminium for it. The movable jaw I can dismount and add in a couple of screw holes but the fixed jaw is integral with the structure and I do not see, how I can fix the aluminium jaw to it as I cannot reach the front side with a drill and a tap. To thick to tap through from the back.
Any advice?
