Shipping costs about £350 to the UK as it has to come by airfreight. It also included angled table which is quite expensive. Add onto that the 20% VAT we have to pay on arrival plus handling fees.

Yes I have to admit that although I’d allowed for shipping I’d forgotten the dreaded import duty and tax. It’s good news for those that, like the man selling this, have to give up our hobby through ill health that expensive machinery can become an investment.

It also shows how big a hole Jim’s passing has made and shows the enormous (if not impossible) task Donna has in trying to find someone to equal his engineering skills.
