This is a V-block clamp for a fork steerer. I will use it both for building forks and aligning them. It is more or less a copy of a Bringheli but setup to mount to the T-slots on my alignment/fixture table.
This photo shows the setup for cutting the V in both the base and cap. I used an adjustable angle table (setup to 45 degrees using a 45/45/90 gauge...the angle table scale is way off) and mounted my normal vise to it. It was tedious cutting the steel block where I could only take off about 0.020" at a pass, but easy with aluminum where I could take off 0.060" at a pass.
