I forgot to mention Tim in the past I have used the drill press with a jig for indexing, in earlier wood xmas ornament making it works great when it is still a piece of square stock and making a four hole ornament like the one aussiman produced, (great job BTW) and then turning it round on the lathe. I want to branch out in different direction using the legacy and trying a three hole xmas ornament, my first attempts with the Legacy have been spot on perfect, attempts on the using the drill press on a three hole were a real challenge and results were not as clean.
