Four screws hold the rubber feet on, there is one unthreaded hole in the middle, and that is the whole story. There is nothing to bolt a vise to. We found this out by taking ours apart, and we had to go back and rewrite four pages on this site that had said otherwise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the fix. A 120 x 150 x 6 mm aluminium plate with a split clamp collar at one end. The column comes out of the original base and goes into this one. What you gain is the rest of the plate: two dense clusters of tapped holes that take a 40, 50, 60 or 80 mm sliding stage, corner holes, and rubber feet underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTwo sizes, and they are not interchangeable\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe collar is cut for one column diameter. Measure yours before ordering - rule across the bare column, not over the head. Most small machines in this class are 13 mm. The heavier ones are 16 mm. A 16 mm collar will not close far enough to grip a 13 mm column.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIn the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne plate with the clamp collar fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRubber feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHonest limits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe vise and the sliding stage shown in supplier photos are not included.\u003c\/strong\u003e Those pictures exist to show what the plate is for.
