| cheapo flat surface lapping |

My idea of a cheap flat surface is to go to Grizzly.com and buy one. Their granite surface plates start at $19.95 with just $7.95 to ship it. This is for a 6X8X2" plate but larger ones can be had for just a few bucks more. I would never lap anything on my good surface plate for fear of damaging the surface, but would have no problem with a cheap one such as these. Dale P. |

I heard a few years ago that the offcut from cutting out sink cavities in granite kitchen counters makes a good cheap surface plate, and that if you ask about you'd probably get one for free since they just get thrown in a skip. Ever since then i've been trying to convince someone who owns a car that touring kitchen fitters would make for a great day out. |
