Hey again guys. Almost ready to fabricate this fixture for a re-occuring part. A while back I had planned to hold a similar fixture in a vise or two, but in a thread I started back then, Mud suggested an indexer. Here's the original thread...

I'd like to set it up on a tilting table so that after all the horizontal operations I can just tilt it and do the angled bore. I've looked around, but can only find import quality tilting tables like this one...

Question is, anybody have any experience with these, or know where to find a decent/better one new or used? The one pictured is 10" x 15".
Not having much luck and am hesitant to buy this one, as someone on ebay was selling one that in his words had "only cosmetic cracks through the casting", making me suspect; LOL.
Any advice would be appreciated on tilting tables and the fixture in general. Here is my latest plan. Please slam away if it keeps me from making an expensive boat anchor.
Thanks for looking.
