Indexing to the next cut is usually done by undoing the split nut and sliding the saddle along and reengaging the split nut .the distance moved is usually the same as the dia of the router bit And the pitch on multiple spirals is in multiples of the router bit Say a 2 inch barley bit a single start is a 2 inch pitch a 2start is a 4 inch pitch a 3 start is a 6 inch pitch and so on .. I like the 4x gears for very fast pitches i have one or on very large dia were a very fast pitch looks right. But most people are happy with just the 2x gears i think what do you all think Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com [mailto:legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com] Sent: Tuesday, 13 May 2014 12:22 AM To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Subject: time for a question or two...... beginning to get acquainted with my machine and right away have a problem understanding something...when doing spiral work, how do you index to the next cut when doing multiple cuts?...it seems to me you have to drop the gears down, index to the next cut and then bring the gears back up...is this correct?...on my other machine(not a legacy...a killinger) you simply pulled a pin out from the index plate, rotated the workpiece, pin goes back into the index plate and you start your next cut...it was quick and fast...am i missing something here?...and if anyone has an opinion on that 4X gear set up i would like to hear if they feel it is a useful accessory...i do not have it, which seems odd, since the two machines i bought came fully accessorized, or so i thought...thanks in advance for any assistance...joe biunno -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Legacy Ornamental Mills" group.
