The stock pulley was not going to work for the suppliers I normally use if I recall. I could have machined something for the spindle end, but I really don't know why this was a deal breaker. I might have been trying to source a timing belt option that was affordable. If memory served me right, that to ended...I seriously don't remember. So much for Yoda! -Tim PS, International owners must have some other resource, this kit is from China. There are Australian and UK made lathes, what do they use for dc motors? ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill <mailto:bulke...@mmnet.com.au> Bulkeley To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, June 20, 2016 10:44 PM Subject: RE: new legacy 1200 Owner soon to be user I assume you mean this https://www.pennstateind.com/store/TCLVSKIT.html and by modifying do you mean with different pulleys Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com [mailto:legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Tim Krause Sent: Tuesday, 21 June 2016 2:58 PM To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: new legacy 1200 Owner soon to be user This topic should have been changed. As another motor choice for the spindle motor that is off the shelf and easily available is a dc motor designed for lathe motor replacement from Penn State Industries. It can be modified to go slower than it is originally setup for. The shaft is a metric size which might hinder finding a suitable pulley here in the USA. See my new post regarding Delrin bushings for a response to Bill. -Tim ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill <mailto:bulke...@mmnet.com.au> Bulkeley To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, June 20, 2016 8:55 PM Subject: RE: new legacy 1200 Owner soon to be user The legacy motor is a Dayton model 4Z131B 1/20 HP 90V 109RPM On the spindle legacy didn’t do a motor accept the woodchuck i don’t have any specks for that one But I like a dc motor no weaker than 1/20 HP which can run around 0-200rpm, but I would not recommend too fast a motor If your headstock spindle has delrin bushes you need a ball bearing headstock for this, I would keep my revs to around the 100 RPM or less for delrin always better to upgrade to ball bearings delrin wears too quick with the weight of larger work. Oh and the reason for a DC instead of an AC motor with a speed control added you don’t loose grunt when you turn the speed control down slow.

The lead screw drive is a 90 volt DC gear motor. speed 0-60 rpm but for most cut I run the speed slow (10- 30 rpm?) I have an 82;1 gear ratio, with a 500lbs lift. My motor is a bit of an over kill, but I got it as a part of a horse trade a few years back... the transph... is a KB electronics for E-bay. ;-) So I did mine on the cheap. By the way I'm glad you like the chain, its a timing chain and gears from an Audi. My motor sits side saddle off form the rails by the use of a door hinge and bolt to take up the slop in the chain. The spindle drive motor is an AC motor 0-240rpm, and I have it on a rheostat the speed that I normally run the machine is something like 80rpm. For sanding I speed it up a bit... The motor is mounted off of the work bench, and the belt is gravity only, the pulley is 12" and I made a slot in the shaft to mount up to the Legacy's drive hub. I would have a hard time using the Legacy with out the motors today, I feel its a must. (at least for me.) I only have one stop on my machine, since I only cut form one direction, (tail to head-stock.) I find I don't really need two. You do not have to copy what I have to make your Legacy work, but what ever you use,make sure you can control the speed, slower is better, even for the spindle drive. Before I made my motors... I use to think of a Barns lathe TYPE OF MACHINE. Pedal power. I think with some gears and... a pedal powered Legacy could work out pretty nice. ;-) Just an idea! have a good night.

I am interested in adding the drive motor to it, I see some people have added other aftermarket options, I would like to know what suggestions as to the pros and cons of adding the drive s are, I added a 36" cmc indexer to my cmc bur have not used it much.
