I don't think there is anyone at BB that is the slight bit interested in metal work or our forum.In case anyone from BB frequents this forum,
I bought two BB surface plates from BB in Vancouver, maybe 15 years ago. I'm thinking I paid $40 each. Maybe even a little less.I have not purchased anything at BB in at least 5 years. I don't even know if there is one in Calgary anymore.
BUT, I think about 7 or 8 years ago I got that surface plate from BB! It was $50 CAD.
I’ve had mine for a good 3 years but don’t remember ever using it, I’ll have to buy a scraper and give that a whirl.
Mine came in a sturdy wooden box and it is stored in there till I need it the top just lifts off and it sits on a wooden base.What are you guy's using for a cover? I need too get something. That is a good deal even with shipping.
