Well while I had my idea fresh in my head I threw a blank of the high figured White Oak on the old HF CM Lathe; this time I was shooting for a flatter plate w/ out the foot. I glued a scrap piece to the back side for the chucks jaws to have a good hold on this piece w/ it's heavy wild grain, and this is what I came up with 10.5" D was as big as I could get from this board.
