Hi all
I'm cleaning out the barn and found a bunch of stuff from my grandfather. 20 or more cutting disks, a left hand Gem Master and a bunch of other things, if any one is interested.

I'd suggest Ebay or some Facebook groups, be wary of overseas sales.
Most of the faceters here avoid purchasing used machines, especially ones that parts aren't readily available for, like yours. They stopped making the Fac-ette machine back in 2012. I'm pretty sure the supply of readily available parts for it has been exhausted by now.
Best of luck!

I have been on the lookout for a back up Face-ette machine, but need a right handed.
A used machine could be also useful for parts. A picture showing the condition would be helpful. When you say "barn", one envisions a machine buried in a pile of straw, rusty and coved in some kind of dung. I'm sure this isn't the case, but a picture would clarify.
