My post was directed to all those reading this thread who might be considering purchasing a surface plate, Moderatedmixed, not directed toward you personally or your posts here at all. I have seen many here and elsewhere who seem to have incorrect (in my mind) ideas about purchasing used surface plates. When buying one used, we have no idea how it might have been used or cared for. That was (and is) my message. I am just another hobby machinist who cares to understand what I think I know, what I don't know, and how it affects my results. I do the best I can with what I have, as do we all. Much of the work in my shop is pretty crude.
Hey Bob, no disrespect intended. I thought I had made that clear. You are far more advanced than most and see things from a different perspective. That’s what makes these forums great; collaboration. In my line of work we call it “Crew Resource Management” or CRM for short. I was just clarifying my points as they were more from a Kindergarten perspective than yourself at the College level, figuratively speaking. Regards all.
