Plaque NotesThe plaques in the picture that is attached to this information for the most part where smooth, but can be seen to be a little waving. (Not a perfect smooth circle) the one of them looking like a paw form some sort of animal being made of a bunch of little plaques right beside each other. Thus the name. A few almost made a perfect circle with smooth edges but ended up being an oval instead.
