The machine is USED and does show scratches and scuffs. I opened the machine up and serviced and cleaned the machine and lubed where needed. I installed a new 12amp lamp and machine has a new power cord as pictured.(I noticed the 4 screws are different on the side covers, just pointing it out) The clear carrier belt is a USED original 3m ribbed copy belt, it makes SHARP STENCILS. Darkness setting works by moving the lamp closer and further away from the artwork. The machine runs at a steady constant speed. I made the best stencils with the machine set at 3 to 3.5 setting.see video (a Carrier is Not included).   Note How small this machine is!
