Base plate thickness?

Hi all,

I have this hankering to know the thickness of a baseplate.  Not a regular
plate, but a baseplate.

I found the FAQ page with dimensions of bricks and plates and studs (
www.lugnet.com/~330/FAQ/Build/dimensions ) but cannot seem to find out how thick
a baseplate is.

In particular, if one were to, say, build a table such that one could make a
very shallow inset for (a) baseplate(s), how deep would that shallow inset need
to be?

Thanks,
Rafe

(...) Baseplates are exactly the right thickness, such that if they are resting on studs, their studs are exactly 1 plate higher. So I guess that makes them 1 plate minus the height of a stud 8?) ROSCO (17 years ago, 4-Feb-08, to lugnet.general)

(...) 0.55 inch. That's measuring with a dial calipers. HTH sjf (17 years ago, 4-Feb-08, to lugnet.general)
