Hi Mike, I'm revisiting this old topic and ask if what I'm thinking of doing is even possible. Take a look at the attached drawing. It's a tapered barley twist made with the magnate 7554 Barley twist bit and 1.5" of pitch. I need to over come the gears locking up with the full 4 degrees of tilt, but after that, does the piece have a chance of looking like my drawing?
I was thinking of using your universal joint trick to get more angle. Otherwise I think my only other alternative is routing from the side with a straight cutting bit a template and some handwork. Do you think this can be done on the legacy? -Tim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Legacy Ornamental Mills" group.
