Everyone to his own preferences, but why do you object to the slight
tilt? My experience has been that a tilt of a few degrees (I believe
mine is 4 or 5 degrees) towards the vise keeps the dogs from tilting
backwards or riding up when pressure is applied.

I agree with those comments only that I maybe mistakenly assumed that the
slight downward tilt needed was already incorporated in the flat face of
most bench dogs. As demonstrated with these two bench dogs which have 2 and
3 degree downward faces built in.
