Im attempting to scrape in a Clausing 8520. Im looking for a 24" Granite surface plate within driving distance from the New Orleans area.
Im also looking to buy a straight edge casting.

Looked it up- 24” x 6” table. Would suggest slightly larger surface plate such as a 24x36 for room for height gages etc. as well as table, knee, column.

Both Denis Foster’s 26” prism and Richard King’s HKA36 would work well for your project.

Have fun!

I have 2 types of camelbacks for 12", 18", 24", 36", 48", 60" and 72". The HK series is without a 45 deg. angle, used on lathe beds and the HKA series are with a 45 deg angle used on milling machines with dovetails. I have a few used prisms too. What size SE are you looking for? I see on Facebook Market Place several used granite plates. Facebook has taken over for Craigslist it seems. You can email me for more info: [email protected]

I see on eBay there is a used 24 x 36" plate in Walker LA....for $300.00 MOJAVE GRANITE PLATE 24 X 36 X 4.5 | eBay

the bed on my mill is 24" I could probably get away with a 12" or 18" SE but I may want a 24" or larger to rebuild a proper bridgport if I manage to get one. Im trying to do this on the cheap though. E-mail'd you about the Prisms.
