Surface Plate & Gage Blocks

I have a piece of precision ground steel flat stock, about 12" square, that is "good enough" for anything I've yet needed to do. I originally got it to use with a drop gauge for reverse engineering parts, and I use an adjustable planer gauge and caliper in lieu of gage blocks. Rubber feet and gun bluing makes it nicer to use. It comes out of the drawer maybe once or twice a year.
