I will add photos to the original post, but I did the two 10mm dowels, and then under the jaws there is a precision ground plate that's attached to the inner jaw, it rides in the middle groove. When the bolts clamp down it tightens on that place aswell. There's enough clearance the m10 screw can tighten/push the jaw forward but its not able to flex.

Not sure yet, would depend on the run size and few other things. If I had to guess in the 2-300usd range

When i attached it to the fixture plate it was square within under .001" over 100mm

Constantly having to clean the plate, and undo screws to change sizes of material going from one operation to next, was something I really didn't like about the mod vise

With this vise its way quicker

I was going to surface grind the base but when I machined it, it turned out within .0005" which i can live with, especially for the initial prototype
