Lee Faceting Machine Head on Custom Base, with Laps and Dops Plus 35ct Citrine - cut on this machine A beautiful, well made, and accurate machine, with polished brass Lee Lapidary head and dops. The solid aluminum base was made by a machinist about 40 years ago, according to the owner. Billet aluminum legs with screw leveling rubber feet, and a 3-axis transfer jig with brass thumb screws, machined from solid aluminum. This machine has been cleaned, lubed, and tested, and works quite well. I will include the large 34ct. 20mm Square cut citrine (quartz) that I just finished on this machine. Multiple speeds selected by moving a V-belt between 2 pulleys. The idler pulley in the center slides in a slot on the base, and speed changes are easy and quick. Motor is 1/4 HP Craftsman, 115 Vac, 5.2A. The owner tells me it was stored for a long time, and doesn't appear to have seen much use. 48 solid brass dops, 5/16" diameter, (larger than 1/4" dops used by Facetron and Ultra-Tek) with slotted "keyed" ends. Sizes range from 3/4" to 1/16", Flat, Cone, and Vee shapes. 45 degree table adapter, also of solid brass. 9 brass index wheels, including 96, 80, 64 (marked) and 60, 32, 40 (2 each, not marked). The latter six were evidently made by this machinist, as they are not stamped with numbers. I recommend that you write the proper index numbers
