Re: Call for Participation: Modeling Challenge

Some images with sizes can be had at search mill vise images and also at Amazon hhip mill vise. I have the 3" one.
Note: not all parts are able to be located at that point and you forgot to include the parellels under the part in the vise. :D

By the way still using your TechDraw videos.
