    Ah, you have to know what you're looking for and check regularly, searching intelligently, I've had some real engineering bargains in the last few months ;-)
    You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D

    A mate of mine has got his grandads old lathe sitting on his garage floor. It looks as though it has been stored underwater for 50 years ! Great patina !! Must be worth £1,500 as a base for a coffee table in a trendy Chelsea apartment.

    I'll see if he wants to eBay it and I will split the profit
