Hello Curt, You are so right, being more in the selling then buying part of my life and knowing that these LOM machines are amazingly unique I’m quite curious as to their resale value, although to us they are priceless but then again there’s reality and I can’t help but think what value they’d be to my heirs 3000 miles away who are not into woodworking.
Absolutely great having you and this group as my friends, Michael From: 'Curt George' via Legacy Ornamental Mills [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2018 11:47 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: E-bay Legacy's Hello Michael I agree, it is interesting, I hope they all sell. but I for one would not even think of buying any of these machine, not for the price asking for. I guess its a personal thing. I mean I bought my Legacy for $3000.00 some Years ago. and I do not regret it. That was perhaps the best wooding purchases that I ever made. Having said that, I've grown in both my woodworking and in the types of things I make. I've pretty much out grown my Legacy, but at this time there is nothing better on the market for sale. Personally, one of those larger model ,1500- 1800 machine would be nice. but size is not the only FACTOR, I would run into with buying another machine. (Even thought I feel the prices are to high, I still feel that there is not another machine on the market that can do more for what I make then the Legacy. Again its need vs money... Personal matters.) Sadly all machine have there own problems. the old steely units and older 1000 ex. have bushing, (either brass or plastic.) that ware out. or have been already worn out, that may cause play in the turning. A motor drive is a must. (sadly most don't have one...) Z axis??? (control of the depth of cut.) and so on... The reason why I stated #2 was the best choice. is, It has ball bearing, not bushing, there is a new Z axis is on this machine. Alum. rails, motor drive. All be bells and whistles, anyone would want. Now that model 2000 ??? the owner dose not know what they have (Its miss labeled to start with its not a CNC. ) There is only one picture is the posting. no parts are shown (or talked about) ,No history on the machine... If one gear is missing you will have to have it custom made. (its not a standard gear) custom parts plus shipping for the West coast. make this machine to risky for my taste to try buying. I have to run now. its time for me to get to work. talk to you and everyone more latter. C.A.G.
