Hello Roger Sounds neat. I see no gears.or linkage for turning IN these draft pictures. Is this design made to follow a template? You said it in not designed to be a CNC, so can you give us some more info. Dose the head stock have its own motor for better turning? The Z axis looks neat. having the head stock tilt is very Kool! but without the gears or linkage to control the spindle,it dose not sound very promising. Come on Roger, if you are going to tease us, You have to have a little bit more foreplay here. ;-p I need more!?. ;-) C.A.G. ----- Original Message ----- From: Roger H Phebey To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, June 26, 2012 6:33 PM Subject: A sneak peak at the new Legacy Manual Machine
Hi guys It is time for a sneak peak at the new Legacy manual machine code named ROBIN! Why Robin, well first of all it is back to the corporate RED and the robin is a proud little bird and why not let us get away from numbers? That said, Andy may change that and call it something else, REVO II seems good to me. Brief specification for ROBIN, 36" between centres, 9" in diameter and about 11" on the flat and it will include a Z Axis as standard and take a Bosch 1617 Router Motor, and please note the Z Axis can move 15 degrees either way in the X Axis and 5 degrees in the Y Axis. You can feed work through the side of the machine, across the X Axis, with a work piece profile of about 8" x 2" by whatever length you want. Other changes that Andy has done include an improved carriage bearings, pivot point at Head Stock end only and it accepts a 2MT Tail Stock so you can fit a revolving tailstock or a Steb Centre. Projected price, but not set in concrete, is circa $1,650.00 to $1,800.00 and unlike the old REVO & 900 that it is set to replace it will not be an Erector Set project, more an IKEA flat pack assembly job. The thoughts of the group would be appreciated and I will try to answer any questions and before you ask the 36" is the length limit on this machine and it is not designed to be CNC.
