Most of the mills came out without a Z axis it was an extra you had to buy although it is very useful work can be done without it.
Extras for the legacy ornamental mill are almost impossible to buy nowadays so when buying a mill look for as many extras as you can that come with the mill Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com [mailto:legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of MWF Sent: Tuesday, 23 January 2018 8:07 AM To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: New Members and Moderation Ira, That's the Z-Axis. Many Mill users have this set-up. They install a plunge router on the Y-Axis "gantry"/router mount plate and set the depth (Z-axis) by raising/lowering he plunge depth.

Mac Mac thanks for the info on the 1000. One thing I noticed about it though is it doesn’t have the crank on top to raise and lower the router. I know that is considered a axis but not sure if it is x , y , or z. Is that something I need or is that something I can do without?

I live in eastern Ky so that would be a little to far of a road trip to do. I've looked at all of them on eBay. Thanks for looking for me though.

I have been considering buying a Legacy Mill. I'm not real good with computers so not really thinking a cnc is for me. The Legacy 1200 is what I'm really looking for but so far have only found a 900 for sale. It is however missing a few parts. It's missing a hand wheel, and slides that go in the rails. I have never been around or even seen one of the mills in person only on the computer and youtube. I can get the 900 for a really good deal. I figure this will get my feet wet so to speak then in the future maybe find a 1200 to buy. Any info or warnings would be greatly appreciated considering my ignorance with these machines. I mainly build furniture and cabinets but would like to also have the option to go with columns if I decide to. Thanks for any and all help. Ira S.
