How to square up an angle plate
#4
Good application for milling, then finish grind if you need it.

What's the biggest diameter cutter you have? Do you have another angle iron to clamp that piece to?

What are the inside and outside dimensions of the piece? If the inside is wider than you vise jaws, clamp it in the vise and have at it. Clean off one side smooth, flip it 90º and clean the other side. Now measure for square, shim as needed to take a final pass for square.

If NOT wider than the jaws, use a smaller but wider block inside the piece to push the surface against the solid jaw of the vise, from behind.
