frame support
Great tool, once you figure it out. The mag well filler does not need to be all that tight, if it does move tap it back or adjust it so it does not move. ,You just need to learn how to use the three screws.Instructions could have been better though. A little rosin helps. I ground some relief for the thumb safety and slide stop After fitting the slide fitting .I installed the heaviest recoil spring I have to assemble the barrel /comp and slide to the frame frame. Slide stop installed and thumb safety on safe (up). It held the slide and comp in positions to profile the comp on my mill. Worked great .

works great for me
It works great. I removed the GRIP SCREW BUSHINGS so I could move it up or down, you can also flip the mag well filler. On some guns you can only tighten two of the screws that tighten the mag well filler which is fine. I used it so I could tighten up the slide to the frame using Brownells slide fitting bars "080-745-000WB" and used Brownells Auto rail swag punches " 080-805-000WB" the mag well did move on me twice while swaging the rails. I just regrouped and tighten the mag well a little more. It was fine after that. If you take your time while setting it up it will work great.
