Default Piston Vise drawings or plans?

Having suddenly a need to machine some pistons,
I thought to make my own piston vise due to what seems
the ridiculous average asking price for them, commercially.
I'm somewhat surprised that there seems to be no
mention anywhere I've looked about plans for making them.

Anyone ever seen any plans, or know of any available?

Sure, it's not a huge deal to sit down and do some,
but after having just moved the shop, being behind on
schedule already, I thought to try and save myself some time.


What are you going to be machining on the piston? That will determine
what type of fixture you need.

Also...what type of pistons?

You can't 'idiot proof' anything....every time you try, they just make
better idiots.
