Does anybody out there actually have one of these yet? Bill

The carriage will unlock and slide easily so capability is there and with the new bearings, should be better than the current Legacies. I agree though, they want you to upgrade to CNC as soon as possible for sure.

I can answer some of the questions on the Evolution. * The tilting z axis has limited use. I think it's up to the new owner to really find out it's usefulness :-). * Your correct that there is no template feature on the new model. We have talked about this a little bit in the group and determined something could be rigged up. The developer felt that if you need to do detailed template work, it would be better to upgrade to a cnc model. * There is a listing for a rotary table but no picture. You will have to ask Legacy about it. I'd like to know the answer myself. Have fun looking around. -Tim ----- Original Message ----- From: mostlyc...@yahoo.com To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Cc: Legacy-Ornamental-Mills@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2013 1:22 PM Subject: Re: New Members and Moderation Hi Tim, I'm Dan and have lived in Alaska for the past 30 years. Have been active in the woodworking craft business for the past 10 years (mostly bowls) and am retiring in the next couple of months so will have time to expand my horizons. Really wanted to jump right into the CNC equipment but my wife will be retiring within another year and didn't want to have to relocate all that heavy equipment back down to America when we move. In the meantime, I am about ready to purchase an Evolution and play with that until we make the move. I ahve spoken to the staff at Leagcy and didn't know if the members here could help me out on a couiple of things? First, the Evolution has 7 axis' and I'm not sure exactly what 6 and 7 (the two tilting axis' on the Z) are for? I notice that they don't have a follower template on the new machine and was curious how things like custom and swan neck molding are done on the new machine. Also, wanted to be able to use the rotary axis feature for hollowing segmented bowls (I'm not very good with lathe tools) and not sure if this is available anymore? If anyone knows if they have replaced these features with different production techniques (same end result) it would be helpful for me to know that before I purchase a new machine. Anyway, I just wanted to say hi and will spend some time reading through all the posts that are in this forum.
