Produced in response to a reader request, E. G. Hartwell proposed this method of converting a cross vice into a vertical slide. This free plan was first given away with issue 15 of Model Engineers' Workshop, February/March 1993.
This time we bring you the article text (right click and choose view image) as well as the plans as jpeg and full res PDF.

The design uses a tapped table together with a machine vice.

Kudos to Nick Farr the valiant champion of the Free Plans for his artful scanning and prespping of the plans.
The page scans are mine, apologies for the illegible edges, but there's no way I am chopping up my old MEWs!
