Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

GCSurplus - Calibrated Cast Surface Table - Kingston

Nicely proportioned and webbed plate. Would have been useful to see the ends of the plate to make sure it has bolt holes for lifting and easier flipping for rescraping. Also would have liked to see base to ensure proper three point support and webbing to suit.

Have rescraped several cast iron plates like this one. Not hard if a guy has a slightly bigger in cert ref plate, just time consuming. This is a worthy plate imo.
 
The stand that comes with this does have the 3 point support, but yes a picture of the ends and underside of the plate (as well as the maker plate/stamp) would have been helpful. I cant believe the bid for far is $103, though early I'm interested in what it goes for. (no I'm not bidding for sure, I don't have room for that lol)
