When blending surfaces edge finding is very important. The Flex Edge Finder Disk attachment makes setup easy. Remember your machine vise will deflect when tightened. The use of a torque wrench may bring best blend results on multiple part runs. Remember to edge find your part after the part is tightened in the vise. If you need to edge find the back jaw and the part does not allow, clamp on a metal spacer. Next tighten your vise with torque wrench and edge find back jaw. With your work zero established on back jaw insert your part and edge find remaining side or sides.

Work offsets placed in the center of parts and edge finding the x middle and y middle of part usually bring best results. Touch off each side of part and divide by 2. This accounts for any part size discrepancy.
