Hey, Guys
Edit added photos below in the thread. I tried to edit this post to put them in the here but Taptalk would not allow.
I have an opportunity to buy a Repurposed granite plate locally. This plate was used in some fashion to reduce vibration and has one through hole in the middle of the plate of 1" and has a small trough going around the edge of the plate. I am guessing some fluid/oil came out of the center hole and it was captured in the trough.
The plate is 35"x35" and 12" thick.
Anyways the current owner intended to use it as a surface plate. 3 years ago he had the plate lapped and brought into AA grade. I don't think it has been used since.
Also has a very nicely made powder coated frame with wheels.
Any ideas out there?
