i ordered one of these ridiculously cheap surface plates from amazon. claim is +/-000075" tolerance. 18x24x3" 150 lbs piece of granite.
for $235 delivered!
i don't see how they can make money off this. a comparable "grade A" surface plate in a reputable domestic brand would be $4000.
i will be able to test the precision within ~.0001 initially then resurface it if needed, if their stated precision is a lie. and if it's really bad i'll return it. claiming less than a tenth tolerance is quite a bold claim
