Re: Legacy Mill 1200 for $800 in Sacramento

[mwfoscue]

There may be a reason for the rather low asking price.  No mention of anything "included" - so if you don't see it, don't assume other items will be part of the $800 deal. 

I do notice:  

1.  The two threaded split-nuts on the X and Y axis Acme screws are "incomplete".

2.  There is an "expandable" chuck on the headstock - can't tell brand/model.

3.  A fair bit of rust on the Acme screws. (What's easiest/best way to get it off such a long rod?

4.  A red regular dodecagon (?) indexing plate. What's story of that? Tim, did you make this one?

5.  No measurement scale/tape on the Y-axis (can't tell on the X-axis.

6.  Looks like the standard chuck on the router - no "extender".

Lastly:  That's a nice looking leg he/she has standing on the Mill (in the far left pic) - the one on the right - with the tapered spiral.   Has anyone in The Group made one like it?  Are there "instructions" on the Legacy site?  Any other "tips" to share regarding making a leg like this one?

Thanks.

Mac

Hello All,

I have never seen a 1200 offered for so low.  Makes me wonder about the parts not in evidence in the pictures.
