Still just playing around so figured I'd make a fixture plate for future unknown projects.
14.5"x14.5"x1", 3/8x16 holes every 1-1/4", and the top of each hole is interpolated to accept a slip fit 3/8" dowel pin. Overall, I think it came out good.
Here is a test block I did as this was my first time tapping with a form tap.
Here is an oh-sh** moment that almost ended with a broken end mill, but I stopped it just in time.
And the rest of it. 121 holes total. All the threads worked great and pins just barely slip in.
