Care and Feeding of a Cast-iron Surface Plate?

From the thread title I thought It was gonna be about the new diet and care instructions for someones shop Pets named "Cast Iron and Surface Plate!"
 
Richard King, I was at Tuckahoe today and got to watch Paolo (?) scraping the ways on a lathe as a demonstration. Very interesting. Never witnessed it in person before.
 
He is a scraper, a quick learner too. Plus he is probably the one who would plane the surface plate. Next time you see him say hi from me. I taught them to scrape down there. Paolo is the guy with the camera.

I'll make it down one of these days on the way to OC ! Looks like a cool place Dan .
 
I just realized there were a ton of helpful comments here - I got involved with other projects and this took a back burner. I think I will get in contact with the folks at Tuckahoe and see if we can work out something to get it planed - thanks for the tip, Richard!
