Hello All,
I've been away from my computers since Wed of last week and I came back
today seeing this thread. We have very few rules in this group and as
the moderator I've tried to guide this group towards creating positive
experiences for all owners regardless of where the equipment came
from. I wrote the preamble of the groups mission so many years ago and
yet today I feel it remains true to the goals of the group and our
cyber-world that we created. For those that have never seen my
introduction, I will post it here.
"Welcome to the /*Legacy Ornamental Mills*/ support group.
We are a group of individuals interested in learning how to use Legacy /
Phantom Engineering's equipment. Our group has a wide range of members
from the hobbyist to the full time professional wood workers. Our
members own a wide range of equipment ranging from the original IRT
model, woodchuck series, the newer style red machines and even CNC
upgrades and fully CNC models. We welcome all Legacy equipment owners
and prospective buyer. Please note that we are not affiliated with
Legacy or Phantom Engineering.
Our official Website can be found at ORNAMENTALMILLS.COM
<http://ORNAMENTALMILLS.COM>. There you will find some past articles
that have been highlighted. There is only a small portion of tips
stored there. The real gold can be found by looking at some of the older
messages. In time it will be expanded and remodel to reflect the real
extent of our users knowledge. Until then, we strongly encourage new
members to ask questions. Please don't be shy or concerned about asking
what might appear to be a dumb question. Often the simple questions lead
to some rather exciting solutions. Please feel free to post images of
your work or machines to the group. Photos help convey messages. Do
you have a project or tutorial you would like to share? Those are
always well received!
This group is an international group. We don't talk about politics, sex
or religion. Please refrain from any personal attacks against fellow
members and Legacy business related problems. The members of the group
have pretty strong feeling about keeping this group a positive place to
share and work through any problems you might have.
Final word, this group requires participation in order to thrive. Please
take a moment to introduce yourself, and join in the conversation. "
Briefly, regarding parts availability in the future. Many of the older
group owners have been aware of my efforts in the past to provide
updates to our equipment to expand the use of the machines. I have the
ability to virtually manufacture any part you need. I know I'm not the
only one, but I do know I am the first one to provide tangible parts.
Joe B. made a generous offer of split nuts to the group and no one took
advantage of the offer. Why is that?
Our equipment may not have factory support, but as members of a
collective, we certainly have the resources to keep the current machines
available alive for the current and future generation to enjoy.
Final plea and comment. Please post your projects, ask questions,
answer a question and be civil. Peace be with us all.
-Tim
