Hi Nick,

No, not at all did you come across in a "bad" way, nor was it a hasty judgment - I appreciate your views.
The trouble with machining all over is you can never get rid of machining marks in those "hard to reach" areas.

Here's a thought - if the unmachined surface is pretty flat and linear - leave it alone - maybe a lick of paint would serve? (Paint would "take" a lot easier on a "rough" surface than a shiny one).

Thanks for the kind thoughts Nick - a pleasure to read your post

I would just like to add, the Keats angle plates seem to have become unobtainable from our normal suppliers, but if anyone would like to try making one, the castings can be obtained from here
