Hello Joe (and everyone else reading here.) I know we are con pairing, Apples- Roses ;-p but this web site, has some neat things to look at. Not only the machine but perhaps some of the parts, (and perhaps just looking at the way it works? might help.) Mandala Rose Engine
| | | | Mandala Rose Engine Mandala Rose Works, LLC is a provider of woodworking and metalworking products and services. We sell Rose Engin... | | | Note. the rose lathe is not the only OT machine around, the Legacy is more like the Holtzapffel Lathe, then it is to the Rose Engine lathe. I have found the Holtzapffel sites more use-full for me to envision how to make the Legacy into a more OT/OM Machine... C.A.G.
