The Tilting Plate is designed to enhance your Pattern Maker’s or Front Vice by allowing you to hold almost any conceivable shape including wedges, tapers, and double tapers. These objects can be large or small.

The plate is 6” long x 2” wide, and the brass dog will fit into a 1/2" hole. The plate will tilt to 16 degrees in any direction, giving it vast capabilities.

The plate rotates on a brass knuckle, and the tension on the brass knuckle can be adjusted by simply loosening two grub screws and tightening the threaded knuckle cap, and then re tightening the grub screws (see photo 4).

The tilting plate can be used in the back jaw of the Pattern Makers Vice, which has two 1/2" holes to accept the brass dog. The Tilting Plate can also be used with your HNT Gordon Front Vice to significantly enhance its capabilities. You can do this by simply drilling a 1/2" hole in the side of your bench which acts as your back jaw.
