i already have one and have had the idea of buying a second one to put the other end to give me a nice long bed...

axminster don't seem to want to sell a second bed unless it's a stupidly expensive price (they wanted well over a grand) so came up with this.

any help appreciated.

Axminster are doing the bed extension for 2442 at £788.39p at the moment,can`t afford that,but will be buying a 460mm extension for the 3520B soon.

eric, it's still £322 but you might be able to buy mine at a cheaper price if you want.

after some research i have found a way to get my own manufactured using stainless steel for the bed bars...

a local company quoted about 50" to get the steel milled to the 14.25mm on the inside edge and i have envisaged a 1000mm extension for about £300 rather than a mere 460mm.

if you are interested eric we could do this in tandem and possibly get it a bit cheaper between us?

don`t have one to sell,but have decided to buy a new one,and then save up and get the local blacksmith to make me a hinge like the Nova lathes have for their extension bed.
