Help with Dovetail and Self Centering Vise

Hi -

 

I'm having a tough time trying to get a self centering vise set up with dovetail stock.  I want to use parameters to change stock size.  I have been trying to use a joint on the dovetails but they never seem to align correctly.  I've attached the file. Any guidance or assistance is greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks!
