Default MIC 6 cast aluminum tooling plate

I acquired a piece of precission machined cast aluminum tooling plate
and wonder if others have used this type of material and for what.
The piece I have is 5/8 inch thick and about a foot square.

Looks like it would be good for vise jaws, but think there might be
some better use for it.
