I'm sooooo glad I'm not in the UK at the moment, I might just not be able to resist it , but then having bought it, what would you do with it

Doug,
Not a good idea
Funnily enough I've seen a 16mm Steenbeck used as a coffee table! Actually, it was the end result of one being used as such by a famous BBC That's Life presenter!
Arriving for the viewing of a final cut of an item for this programme the presenter (I won't give her name) placed a full cup of coffee on the feed plate nearest to her as she made herself comfortable. This was all very well until the film was run and the plates started revolving!!!
