My first mill vise was a piece of aluminum bolted across the table of my
Taig, a flat strip of aluminum, and a piece of aluminum angle. I'd run
bolts through the angle, slide the strip under the flat leg, push the
vertical leg up against the stock and tighten it down forming a lever
clamp on the edge of the stock. This allowed me to machine the entire
face. I'm sure you get it, but if not I could pencil up a sketch pretty
quick. I think the only reason I didn't send stock flying is because of
the very low cutting loads.

As I imagine it the strip under the horizontal leg's outer edge tilted the vertical leg of the angle against the stock when you tightened the hold downs.

On a sadder note, say a few appropriate words for old Phil of Duck Dynasty who just died.
I remember the former teacher for informing us that Columbus' three ships were the Nina, Pinta and Santa Monica.
