Tim, I wanted to chime in regarding not posting often. The only disappointment that I have regarding the group is the difficulty posting pictures, which has everything to do with google and nothing to do with the talented members of this group. This certainly doesn't keep me from posting when I have a question though.
The daily email from the group that I get in my inbox keeps me informed on current topics, so I often feel caught up with the latest happenings on the group. A lot of my lack of posting mirrors my actual time woodworking, which is very infrequent anymore except for commissioned projects or a special fun project I've been thinking about. You're also correct in that I'm one of those second hand owners of a legacy (1200). As far as my interests go in the group, every post made here is meaningful to me. My interests are: 1. Learning techniques 2. Seeing others' projects 3. Modifying the Legacy 4. CNC, or CNC-ifying the Legacy Numbers 3 and 4 are the big directions that I want to head. I've got a half built 3-axis CNC machine in my garage that I worked on as a backup to my Carvewright when it breaks down during an important project. I'm really interested in automating the Legacy and trying to do my own Performance package CNC conversion to it with my existing equipment. Other baby steps that I'd like to achieve would be automating the x-axis to speed up making dowels (I thread 1 1/2" dowels for erector set type furniture projects). I also have not researched this, but I'd like to be able to cut an automated 1 1/2"-5 thread on the legacy. I have no idea if the gears support that, and I suspect that they do not at this time and I'll have to wait for CNC conversion.
