I just bought a seldom used and 20 year old (or so he thought) Starrett 24 x 36 x 6 pink granite surface plate.
I now want to build a stand for it. I haven't been able to look at the bottom of the plate. Do Starrett plates typically have support pads -- or some indications of where the supports should be -- on the bottom?
A Starrett web site says to place the three supports at 1/5 length from both ends with one centered and the other two at 1/5 width from the edges. Someone here on PM said the single support should be on the end with the precision label.
Any advice is appreciated!
