What methods do you guys use to mount them to the drill press table? Preferably, something that is easy to remove and set up.

In my case, , I remove the usual flat, slotted table from the support arm and replace it with an adapter I got from Grizzly. The adapter fits into the support arm of the drill press and the cross slide vise is mounted on top of it. Works great. I can swap them out in a minute.

I like the looks of this one from Northern Tool and Equipment. At 23 pounds it should stay put. And it offers two axis fine adjustment.

I pretty regularly need to bore accurate holes in small-ish workpieces (both wood and plastic), and I'm getting tired of clamping makeshift fences to my wobbly drill press table. I need a dedicated drill press vise that allows for accurate positioning on both the X- and Y-axes. The ability to add non-marring jaws would be a big plus.

I have a cheap one from Harbor Freight that had a lot of slop as received, but was easily adjusted to be much better than more expensive ones that were not so adjusted. I'm not saying you should buy a cheap vise. I am saying you should check the adjustment of whatever you get.

I have a Palmgren and a Jacob both are good the Jacob isn't in the same league as the Palmgren but works just the same and can be found on Ebay for about $100 or a bit more
