Hay Bill! I agree. What I find neat about his machine is first the robust elements of his unit. What I see there should not be any play with in his slides/glides/bearings. With the double screw drive of the carriage, his movement is Rock solid. (and I have never seen a screw anything like that before.) His router is also pretty Neat ! ;-) Having said that, I agree with you about the Legacy being a much better machine, (at least for my purposes ) for all the elements you already covered. But I do find that. His Video cover quite a few elements that people here could use, like the split turning, (paper Joint) The concept of how the turnings/rope is made. and if you look at the final, you can see how he combined the turning to make a long molding... (could you imagine what I could get out of this video series, if I could understand Spanish?) ;-) For me, I see this Gentleman wood working skills and Craftsman ship , in this video offer a lot, besides entertainment (which it dose.) and I was hoping others here would enjoy it too. and perhaps see and learn something new form watching... I have to go. Have a great day. C.A.G.

It looks like it could twist the wood with out a router. ;-p I have no idea if he made his machine or bought it. Having said that I find this machine something unique. C.A.G.
