    Quenching slabs with holes in them - GIF

    Quenching slabs with holes in them. No, it's not as cool as the Panzer tank hull being quenched. But still quench-worthy. I like how the cameraman backs up at the end.

    I am counting what looks like 6 individual slabs. It seems the center slabs would cool at a much slower rate than the ones on the top and bottom.

    Might be saline vs fresh water. Anyway, I'm sure they are floor plates or Acorn type platens. Each Acorn [no longer in production] seen was square but https://www.weldsale.com/product-cat...latens-stands/ plenty of sizes are available.
    Most floor plates are T-slotted, or matrixed with tapped holes for use with machine tools; BIG machine tools.
