Default Horizontal borer

Looking for a big old horizontal borer... (the machine tool !) .... for steam workshops, any size anywhere but must be in working condition preferably with tailstock. email or pm.
Also any suitable aged machine tools to go to a pal in NZ setting up his workshop, must be in good working order but the newness can have worn off a bit.

I believe there is a Kearns horizontal borer available at the Launceston Steam Railway. Cannot vouch for the condition. The Chap to speak to is Nigel Bowman 01566 775665
