Title: Nope!
Review: This plate is a "deluxe" piece Junk!The 1/32"+ "crown" that the brilliant "engineers" decided to manufacture into this plate make's any raised panel, edge, or joint forming work infuriating, and impossible to achieve accurately. It also looks very "cheap", the top surface is very slippery, and it scratches easily. What initially "caught my eye" and made this plate appealing were the "2in1" plastic insert rings, they looked like a nice feature. They fit extremely tight though, and removal without a hammer or pry bar was not really possible unless you modified them. Needless to say, I returned it. I purchased a very nice machined 1/4" aluminum plate from Rockler instead that it IS flat, and has an very nice anodized coating. It works excellent! I highly recommend that you save yourself the time and money I lost and do the same. Keep in mind that the aluminum plates also have different sized inserts you can buy or you can get a solid one that you can drill out for a custom size.
