Could you make one with plates?

I could make one with bricks as well, it is the 8x16x1 (3
plates high, or one brick high) since it is one brick in
heighth. It is just less stable that way.

Not sure what you're using it for, but I've found sandwiched plates to be quite
stable. The 26-stud-square roof panels on the first tier of my church are
3-plate sandwiches, as is the pulpit. The balcony, which apparently holds a
real-world cat, is a layer of bricks sandwiched between plates. The roof beams
are 5-plate sandwiches, the longest spanning 190 studs.

I've found, though, that large plates don't hold as well on the bottom layer as
small plates, and sandwiched plates work better than sandwiched bricks.
