Have not heard back again from the guy with the big RT since I made him an offer, so I'm assuming he's not haggling. I went to a clearing sale in between my nightshifts this week as there were a bunch of horizontal milling cutters that I was keen on (will put up another post) and there happened to be a couple of rotary tables in the sale. I bought one that was so buried in junk that I couldn't get much of a look at it, the price was certainly right but it needs a good clean up. 13" I think, guess I should measure it, and certainly in usable, if not pristine, condition.

okay, okay...
No showpiece bit I paid less than a third of what I had offered on the other one. Should tidy up okay i think, although it has a couple of broken-out bits of t-slot.
the slotted part of the table is 12" diameter, and rim-to-rim is 16". I think my face may have been a bit red when I carried this thing out to the car.
I'll post some photos of other stuff that I picked up, in particular there is a dividing head that I would like to identify.
