ABSTRACT:
An elongate vise jaw plate assembly for mounting on a movable member of a vise is constructed to clamp many individual work pieces for machining. It enables clamping many pieces together in the vise even if their dimensions are not precise. It includes a base portion that is secured to a movable member of the vise. A work piece engaging portion is connected to the base portion by an elastic connector portion. The elastic connector and work piece engaging portions are slit into multiple segments, one for each work piece. Another work piece engaging portion is attached to a stationary member of the vise. Both work piece engaging members are machined to cooperate with work pieces. The work pieces are clamped between the two work piece engaging portions. Differences in the dimensions of the individual pieces are compensated for by the flexing of the connecting portions so that all the pieces are clamped securely for machining.
