ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for precisely locating a workpiece along a Y-axis of a milling machine worktable includes a fixture body having a generally rectangular cross section and at least one generally planar reference surface. The body has three longitudinally spaced apart apertures formed therethrough for retaining bolts. A nut threadably engages the center bolt and cooperates with an inverted T-shaped slot formed in the workpiece supporting surface of the worktable to clamp the body to the table. The body has a pair of spaced apart channels formed therein each with a longitudinal axis generally perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the body, the channels being located at associated ones of the other two apertures. A foot having a pedestal portion is located in each channel for engaging a corresponding slot formed in the worktable. The feet are formed with a width corresponding to a width of an opening of the slot in which they are located.
