Hello Bill If I understand it correctly, this machine is still on the drawing board. So suggestiions may help get this machine working like what we/people want from it. I like those idea's Bill. but lets see the finnal machine before we start changing it. ;-) I wish Legacy was not so firm on the 36" L. I think it should be shorter or longer. for what I do 36" just isnt enough. and for the wood turner that is makeing bottle stops and pens... I think it will be to big and expencive to fit the job/cost. but that is just my 2 cents worth.
Have a great day.

(3x the charm.) ;-) Ok here is my input. make this unit have a carriage that can tilt 90 deg. so you can cut bowls end grain. (turning bowls are a big market for most turners.) give it a motor drive.and make a gear for finer movement. Make the Z axis so that it can free float on a template. or better yet Give it two templates followers, one for the Y&X axis movements and one for the Z axis.(rise and plunge movements.) this might help with the pen turners market. That's all that I can think of at this moment. But If something comes up, then I will let my know. Have a good night. C.A.G. No virus found in this message.
