Used Facetron Machine w/NEW Factory Upgrade...*SOLD*
This machine is now SOLD. Thank you!
This used Facetron faceting machine and accessories were part of a group of equipment I recently purchased from an elder lapidary artist. The machine was made in the mid-1980s and originally had the older style spring needle gauge. But in performing a test cut stone I found that the angles were a little off so I sent the faceting head to the factory and had it rebuilt and upgraded to the modern factory dial gauge indicator configuration (at a cost of $500 for the rebuild/upgrade/calibration) and just received it back from Jarvi Tool (the maker of the Facetron machines) this week.
Included with this machine are; fifteen (15) Facetron keyed dop sticks, a Facetron dop transfer jig, a dop chuck wrench, a 45 degree table dop, a target dop, a 96 index gear, and the original owner's manual.
All of the electronics perform properly and the bearings are good. A few of the dops have flat spots near the ends from girdling/dop sizing miscalculations by the previous owner. The original urethane splash bowl has been replaced with a new one. There is some discoloration under the splash bowl where the original urethane splash bowl had been left on while stored and had chemically etched into the anodized finish (see photo of base without splash bowl). But this discoloration is cosmetic only and is hidden from view when the new splash bowl is mounted in place.
In addition to the photo shown above I have uploaded a total of 19 photos of this machine and it's accessories to my Flickr page which may be viewed at the link below. When on the Flickr page click on any gallery image and then click on the full screen icon at the bottom right corner of the frame. At that point you may use the forward or backward scroll arrow to scroll through all images enlarged.
The price of this machine with the accessories listed and shown is $1850 plus shipping via Fed Ex Home Delivery from High Point, NC. I would estimate the shipping weight to be between 40-45 pounds. If interested in purchasing please message me with your shipping address and the email address that you would like your Pay Pal invoice sent to and I will get you an accurate total including shipping cost with insurance, and will email you an invoice. Will ship within the U.S. continental forty-eight states only.
I will likely be listing this item on other venues as well, but the first person to respond with a commitment to purchase gets priority. I do not carry a mobile internet devise so please do not be discouraged if you do not hear back form me immediately. Thank you!
