Press/lasts/stand wanted.

[Mike Reed]

Hi folks. 
I used to resole rock climbing shoes but sold the business last year.

Now I’m looking to restart on a vastly smaller scale, mainly a ‘me and my friends’ basis so I’m after a cobblers stand, or anvil - some roughly size 5,6,7,8 wooden or plastic lasts, and crucially, a small old fashioned shoe press of some sort that is easily portable. If anyone has a small portable finisher or stable running desk top grinder for sale I’d be interested in that too - I have one, but its not stable and the belt wonders left and right under pressure. 
I have all the other smaller tools already. 
Thanks
Mike.

Pm me I behave a standing last and I have a press too. I also have a shoe stretcher.

I had a small finisher single phase but I sold it not long ago and it’s hard for them to come to market.

There are loads on Facebook market place, Gumtree and Ebay.

I am talking about the standard 750 single phase machine. I don’t see them on eBay or here but I don’t have Facebook so they might be there as you say. Obviously if the gentleman is after bench mounted grinder then obviously they are every where.
