Found this listing in craigslist and am curious if this would be a good buy or not. Beacon Star Lapidary/Gem Stone Grinder, Model 6" Holiday Grinder (5 wheel)...Grinder Only; no motor. Like New/Never used. $350.00 OBO [/URL] Anyone willing to share some info/advice/experience concerning this machine? Good, bad, and ugly storys are useful. Parts and wheels to fit still available? Good Machine? What kind of motor would be needed? Thanks! --Kathy

Looks quite nice, I am not familiar with that specific machine but if it is as good as the later Star Diamond combos it would be nice. Personally with no motor and no way to check the bearings I would only pay about half what they're asking. Can you do the work, wiring to set it up for use?

I do not know how to set it up for use. Google would be a big source of info along with a brother with mechanical knowledge. Not specific to lapidary machines tho.
