Raytech Gem Lab Polisher model GL-I *SOLD*
This item is now SOLD. Thank you everyone!
This is a Raytech model GL-1 Gem Lab Polisher with three 6" x 2-1/2" Rayspan sanding drums which can be used for sanding and polishing gemstones, the bottom edges of blown glass projects, or for repairing small chips on the edges of vintage and antique glass items.
I recently bought this machine as part of a group of equipment from a lady who told me that she purchased this machine over twenty years ago, set it up in her art studio, and then never used it. Although to me it does appear to have possibly been lightly used once or twice but that is about all. It is a very clean machine and the machine itself is in excellent condition. The three rubber Rayspan drums however have crazed with age (on the sides only) but are still spongy and should work fine.
The motor is a 1/3 hp Dayton split-phase motor. The motor, belt and bearings all work well. The right hand end of the arbor shaft is also made to accommodate a 6" screw-back polishing lap. And though one did not come with this machine when I purchased it, I do have a used 6" aluminum screw-back master lap that I will add in for free to the purchaser.
In addition to the photos shown here, several more photos (16 total) showing other angles and details may be seen on my linked flickr page:

The price of this machine is $375 plus shipping from the Greensboro, NC area. Will ship within the U.S. continental forty-eight states only. Shipping cost will probably run between $28-$65 depending on what part of the country you are having it shipped to. If interested in purchasing then pm me your shipping address (*Shipping address must be a Pay Pal verified address) and the email address that you would like your Pay Pal invoice sent to and I will send you an invoice with a total including shipping.
I may be listing this machine on other venues as well, so the first person to contact me with an intention to purchase gets priority. Thank you!
