Default Cast Iron Tool Table Source?

I am looking to buy a few cast iron power tool tables (such as shaper
tables) for mounting my own equipment. Looking about the web I do not
see much out there. Perhaps some are sold as replacement parts but I
have not contacted the major vendors yet. Has anyone here fulfilled a
similar request. I would be interested in learning of your source

Grizzly has online ordering of parts, including the cast iron tables,
but they aren't cheap. On the G1026 the main table is $315 and the
extension is $97.50, plus shipping, which is nearly half the cost of
the machine. You would probably be better off just buying it and
pillaging it for parts if it didn't meet your needs out of the box.

You might search for some junked table saws. Many of them have cast iron
wings and would make excellent power tool tables.

Check Craig's List. Lots of table saws for cheeeep, like $30.

Thanks for the replies. I am out here on Cape Cod, quite a drive from
Philly. It certainly makes sense to check the Boston craigslist.
