    The 'home' workshop would need 3 phase power and a high roof.

    When I extended my shed 6 metres, I thought about putting a pit in but the concreter's quote was about the same as a chinese hoist..

    My shed on the coast is 3 phase and I filled in my pit. Having 3 phase at home is doable and an outdoor hoist

    Yeh I love it too, missed some great bargains because I am not vigilant enough to keep checking, but have still scored some good gear in the past.

    Unfortunately for me, people that buy DSLR camera gear on there, seem to be happy to pay within 10% of brand new prices

    I often buy from ebay just because it’s easier to do from my armchair than to search around. For that reason I am sometimes prepared to pay the market price (including postage), but you do have to be careful as there are many sellers who’s prices are higher than buying locally.

    My best ever bargain was a new Exedy clutch for our bus. Not the sort of item that most places have on their shelves, & with a price of around $375. A mate alerted me to it & although I didn’t need it at the time I bid $150 & I got it for $40 + $30 postage. It was fitted when I had the bus re-engined.

    2006 4.2TDi ex-Telstra Remote area Camper. 425w roof mounted solar, 360Ah Aux batts, BCDC1240, Onboard hot & cold pressurised & filtered water, (25 litre hot water calorifier), ARB fridge, ARB freezer, Built in kitchen, heaps of easy access storage, 240v, 3” Genie exhaust + dynotune, 2” lift, 3900kg GVM upgrade, second glovebox, ROH Blaktrak steel wheels, Bridgestone D697's (now Toyo RT's), Redarc gauges/pillarpod, Hema HX-1, Icom 450 CB, dual rear view cameras, Onboard 30amp Victron mains charger, second glovebox, dual seat conversion, TPMS, Boss PX7 onboard air with 9 litre tank, 350w inverter, Steel bullbar, Harrop Eaton diff lock (front), Warn winch, Snorkel, Dual spares , 160 litre water tank, 180 litre fuel in two tanks (approx 1200km range) 2010 Tvan Tanami. (incl another 70 litre water tank) with matching wheels/tyres (& 3rd spare)
