Re: Basic set up question

Basic set up question
I have what is most likely a basic question to most of you guys. How can I hold this down so I can mill this block of aluminum? I want to face off the top. I'm not making a precision part, just a loading block for a wildcat cartradge. I just want to make it look nice. After I face it off I will be d...
