WTB Faceting Machine

[LORD]

Looking for a faciting machine for beginner.
I am located in SA

 

[LORD]

I have been searching gumtree ect, no luck but I am in no hurry.
Can any of the gem cutters out there give me opinions on a beginner's machine to be looking out for.
I am happy to pay up to the 1.5k mark for a complete set up to get me going.
Looked at the Chinese ebay ones but I would rather get an older well known machine.
Any help/direction greatly appreciated.

might be worth contacting some lapidary clubs in your area they may replace machines or they may know members that are selling up

I'm at the Bendigo Gem Club Expo I've heard they might be replacing some machines so I'll check it out and get back to you.
