   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.
