For Those of you who are Star Reloader Enthusiasts:

I am pleased to announce that Star Machine Works is under new management. I have completed the purchase Star Machine Works from Bill Cunningham and everything, parts, jigs, fixtures etc. have been moved east to New Jersey. We have nearly completed the process of unpacking and organizing the tons (literally) of “New Old Stock” parts and look forward to serving fellow Star enthusiasts for years to come.

My goal is to provide all of the parts needed to keep these fine machines operating. As mentioned above, I have tons of original Star parts in inventory. Unfortunately, some parts are sold out, so I will be working to replenish stocks of those parts as quickly as possible.

I currently have no plans to produce “New” Star Universals or Progressives, but I will continue to rebuild/refurbish/refinish Star reloaders into like new condition. The many original Star jigs and fixtures I have acquired will greatly enhance my efforts in this area. I generally have fully rebuilt Star Universals and Progressives available for purchase.

Sincerely,
R. Bruce Williams

PS Magma Engineering is still the source for Star Lubricator Sizer parts

Hi,
I had three STAR reloaders for years all decked out with case feeders,auto advance,ect. Had a few dealings with Bill in Cali and all good,no problems and it was nice to have a place to turn to for help and parts!

Wish you well, as my Stars are gone now, but still consider them the best all around progressive ever made!

So you are telling us there is still a chance...???? :bigsmyl2:

Glad to hear the good news Bruce. The Star Universal you refurbished for me is still gorgeous and running beautifully. Best of luck!!!

Actually, I have refurbished quite a few lubesizers, and I have a couple more in the works, but my main focus will be on Star Reloaders and parts for same.

By a W I D E margin. None of today's machines even approaches that beauty.
