I made this today. I’ll bet most of you guys and ladies don’t know what it’s for. If I get 10 guesses without an answer I’ll tell y’all what it is. ………. Nubs

It's a cover of some sort?
Finger guard on the side of the band-saw. (throat plate)
Skid plate for the bottom of a tractor.
Table top for old desk in elementary school.
Nope, not a cover. Thanks for the guess. Yours is #1.......... Nubs
Wrong. Guess #2 .............. Nubs
Guess #3. Nope. Not even close. Goes on a lathe. ................ Nubs
Cmon Chuck, I know you can do better than that. It does kinda sorta almost looks like my Shooting Bench top, though. But, it's for a wood lathe. I know there are a few of you here when someone guesses correctly or I reveal what it, is is gonna wish they had one. Guess #4............. Nubs

2 pairs of 4 evenly spaced holes, hmm......
I know already I wish I had one!
It doesn't look like a guess, but at least it's got you thinking, so I'm gonna call it guess #5. I need 5 more to blurt out the answer. .............. Nubs

It’s an electric guitar back plate cover to house the guts of a double size super strat with a tremolo.
The only thing I know of that has 4 holes like that is a motor or controller box. Looks like it would either move it over 8 inches or allow you to reverse the mount. Offset screw holes allow you to access the holes over the ways?
Mounting plate for a VFD conversion.
@Arn213 There be no cigar awarded for your response. Try again.
Pretty close, Frank. Below is @Karl_TN answer. He pretty much has the answer, but it's not for a conversion. It's for mounting the VFD facing forward rather than towards the backside like Powermatic and Jet that I know of. When I get the VFD wired up, I'll post a picture. ............... Nubs
Just goofing around in the garage, too nice to stay inside. Mixing and matching woods I have, trying to figure out what to make. I have that PO box door I got from Jason ( @Jason Martin ); squared up four sides of the rosewood thins I got from Joe ( @wood128 ); some spalted walnut thins I got from Rob ( @rob3232 ); a really nice piece of curly maple from Mike ( @Mike1950 ) decisions, decisions....
First 60 degree day since last fall. To nice to be indoors. Decided to straighten out the outside wood rack. Top row is cherry. (4 foot long pieces)Middle is walnut and bottom is apple. Ends are painted with left over paint I picked up for free at a lumber store. Still have a whole pallet of sycamore to put away somewhere!
Do we really care what Karl and Frank thinks?
There is nothing like getting shafted because of technicality. Good grief, I am going to have to make an appeal and I did say for a double size super strat- I assure you that this will fit the cavity.
Oh I am getting a magic puff……….light up that cigar Jerry………I am probably going to need permission from @Brink, but “Monkey see, Monkey do”………
