?Barker engineering mill?

[project5k]

has anyone ever heard of barker engineering, and or a mill made by them? i ran into a guy that has one that he's looking to sell for cheap, and im thinking about getting it... its a tiny little thing, but it would be better than no mill at this point... its supposed to be something like 18" tall, and the table is 4"x12"... its got a 1/3rd HP motor...and is belt driven... he's never used it, so he couldnt tell me about how much backlash it has in it.. or anything like that... i was thinking about using it for making some model parts, and maby cutting circuit boards... after i convert it to cnc ofcourse.. im sure that its lead screws, but again the guy couldnt tell me much....

suggestions?
comments?
ideas?
