Not sure if this is the right area but as its workshop and you'd need one of these i thought it a relevant area.
Has anyone bought one of these from this guy, bargain prices for front, rear and headstock. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... AQ:GB:1123

Re: Paddock stand
They are not as sturdy as they make out. Yes it may be 32mm diameter tubing but it's less than 1mm thick. OK for once a year use but IME, a waste of money if you're going to use it constantly, just too flimsy. Better off with an Oxford.
Conventional wisdom says to know your limits. To know your limits you need to find them first. Finding your limits generally involves getting in over your head and hoping you live long enough to benefit from the experience. That's the fun part.
