Wow!  That looks awesome!
So cool to see stuff like that being made.

As for Fish Jerk...  Maybe he's now Fish Nice Guy
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

Nice work!
Just a thought, I love using reel clamps, but they always feel bulky to me.  If you're machining your own, couldn't you change the profile a bit to make it more streamlined?
I use SolidWorks, maybe I can send you some files of what I'm thinking?

Ron (Fish Jerk) has never been a jerk to me, just don't poach his spots!  ;D

I thought about it.. The reason I went the thickness was just so I could grab a little more in the vice.. I just wanted to bang it out while the machine is open.. We use Pro E here which is super over freaken complicated.. And I could have it translated but I'm not that good with the techno weannie stuff yet.. It would be easier for me if you just send me a hand sketch and I module it up from that..

I think if I send you the part as an .iges file, you should be able to open it in ProE.
PM me if you're interested.  I understand if you're not, no worries!  :)
