I found this trying to overcome my quarter plate issue with the 9x9 Go board. The slight bowing you see is nonexistent with ample side support (1x2, 2x2 bricks, etc). I am not sure the hinge tops are quite quarter plates, but I am sure the raised lettering on these parts isn't helping.
I tried using some plates, tiles, and flags to determine the actual fraction of a plate, but when I broke out the calipers I found that the plates, tiles, and flags I was using were not quite the dimensions I expected, so I just took a sample of 32 hinge tops and with statistics concluded the actual fraction is about 5/16 of a plate.

The Rub' al Khali (Arabic: الربع الخالي ar-Rubʿ al-Ḫālī, "Empty Quarter") is the largest contiguous sand desert (erg) in the world, encompassing most of the southern third of the Arabian Peninsula. The desert covers some 650,000 square kilometres (250,000 sq mi) (the area between long. 44°30′−56°30′E, and lat. 16°30′−23°00′N) including parts of Saudi Arabia, Oman, the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. It is part of the larger Arabian Desert.

Wow, this theme proved harder than I was expecting. Kept either getting a mess of silver blur (too much to even guess it was a coin) or I went to quick on the shutter speed and got a frozen coin. As speed of coin varied each spin I gave up on this one which I think has enough blur, but we'll see. Good fun anyway. HMM!!!
