Cool. Thanks, Glenn! You've given me the idea of picking up a few pieces to use a platforms for product photography. Might make for a nice surface or backdrop for lifestyle product photos and the like.
To wit, a product shot just for fun* of my G-Shock GGB-100-1A3 on a small trapezoidal block of granite (the base for my Six Sigma Black Belt certification trophy, to be exact).
*- I do shots like this for fun to practice my lighting and staging technique
