    Yes it does all depend on what you want to do with it.

    True, but it's not really hard to make a backplate is it...

    I have a 200mm 4-jaw self centring chuck on my lathe, TOS brand. It's very accurate, but that's probably not an issue on a rotary table.

    I have a bit of 6mm steel plate in stock. Do you think is it thick enough ??

    As long as you don't need to tap it more than M8 I should think so. If there's a fair few bolts then it can't bend much. If it was on a lathe you would want more.
