[TheForge] acorn plate

[Ray Miller]

Have you contacted scrap dealers in the region. I have been told of old 
platen tables being scaped out when some businesses close. IT sounds 
crazy to us, but my table weighs 2300 lbs. at $.04/lb that's about $92. 
I bought mine for $300. At an auction depending on who is there they may 
only get scrap value so many I ma told that many of them are scrapped 
out. WHAT A SIN.
