If you flip the driver con rod 180° that will put the frame farther in on the (looks like a milling mach.table) and should dampen vibrations. You could also put a small tray under the vice to catch the cuttings. All in all it's a really smooth idea, gonna have to put that on my to do list for after we get moved and I have garage to work in.
