I did figure out that the chain on the outside was just to speed up
the rpm of headstock to leadscrew. The gears sere not engaged in that
configuration. I removed the chain and adjusted the gears to mesh etc.
There are several gears in boxes and what seems to be "idlers" that
would change rotation of screw to headstock.
I have recently "rounded" a glue up of about 6 inches in diameter and
I have some Magnate bits on order.
I'm not sure of bushings you speak of, is that the bushings in the
headstock? I'll check tomorrow.
The electric chaindrive is mounted on lower shelf and the chain is
enclosed in a wooden sleeve and the gear is barely noticeable in
geartrain.
I am probably not calling these features by their proper names, hence
I would love any info on this machine.
I made some tapered reeds on a short peice (40" or so) and with a
little handscraping I am pleased with the outcome.
I used a side cutting bit to acomplish this and played with differing
indexes to change spacing/sizes
Still cannot figure how to index, say a two or three start piece like
I would need to for spiral work. or what the travel vs rpm sets I
need.
The flutes were easy since all I changed each pass was a set index.
I am in North Alabama (Athens) and would love to see a unit in use by
a knowledgeable operator..
BTW the leadscrew appeared to be a little rusty and I used penetrating
oil to lube "Big mistake"
Sawdust built up on it immediately. I need a new lube lol
Thanks for all your replies. I appreciate all your help.

Hello again Joe
just for you info.On this topic.
Uni-Strut comes in 20' lengths with out any problems, they also sell extra
heavy, double and triple re-enforced Uni-Strut. So if you feel that your
rails are to flimsy for your projects, you can easily beef up your system
with out hurting your bottom line. ($$$!)
What kind of bushings do you have one your unit?
If you find out that you need any parts made (ether missing form, or just
wanting.) Tim and others can and are willing to help you out. all that you
need to do it ask.
Good luck on your next project.
keep us informed on the progress.

Welcome to the group Joe. Have you seen the tutorials on Legacy's original

I too am curious to see what machine you have. Hard to guess without
seeing
a photo. Is it painted red or black?

I own an older legacy mill (pre Aluminum carriage) and need any
instructions or help I can get. I have no documentation whatsoever and
the mill has had a home built drive to long screw axis added. I dont
know the model but it appears the capacity is just short of 96"
measured from headstock. Thanks for your consideration Joe Gassen
