For me the thing about work holding on the drill press is set up time.
I.e., it's too much. Particularly, using a vise and bolting the vise down
through the slots. Ack! I have improved that somewhat with a
quick-acting vise & having it mounted on a plate which I clamp with
Kant-Twists:

Thanks for the tip. I'll do the same thing. It seems like just as soon as I
bolt a vise on, I need a quick job with nothing in the way.
