Default Machine tooling

Hi all,
I have recently bought myself a warco super major mill and a Colchester student lathe so i can get cracking on my 4" little samson (thread to follow). I have found myself now needing tooling for these machines so i can get started and have kept and eye on ebay etc. I want to refrain from buying from places like RDG or likewise as i would prefer to have a nice british built rotary table for example and i expect i could get more tooling for my budget by getting it second hand. So if anyone has any tooling for either a milling machine or lathe lurking in the cupboard of their shed then please get in contact as id like to get buying some tooling over the next few months.
on my list would be
fly cutter
boring head
rotary table
right angle block thing
set of parallels
v blocks
colchester student faceplate
and anything else you think a young machinist may need to get going.

Many Thanks James
