Squee, these surface plate castings are 3 for $100! There is simply no way I can resist that. Precision from precisionlessness, here I come!

Edit: Ordered!

The warping issues as it cooled would be a huge problem. I have to assume that is the reason (to the best of my knowledge) no one has ever done this, unlike plate glass on molten tin. And even plate glass isn't THAT flat, not by optical/metrology standards.
