Cheap (ish) in the UK

[bugbear]

Alf - I noticed that one today too. I have trouble believing it can manufacturered to within 0.0001" for that price. Wonder if they got carried away with the 0's .

Don't ask me how, but that's the normal spec for small cheap plates.

Really glad this thread has come along. I've been thinking about getting one of these plates for ages, but thought it might be seen as taking things too far .
I think Tilgear have been doing them for a while. But the larger of the two at Axminster is certainly tempting. However, I think common sense dictates that it's worth waiting till we move into our own house, and have my own workshop to give it a home. I'm guessing it's not fun to move around!!
BTW, BB, how disgruntled was the delivery man when he had to lug that into your workshop?

I wonder how much shipping to the States would be? :-k

At 80kg? I'm guessing quite a lot
