They stand the boards up for one month after cutting and they are dry that quick. They only use wood for supports and joists. The walls are concrete.

No, not really. Would you believe my LOM is still in the original shipping boxes? Tess has asked to be a partner as I assemble it and begin using it. I have a pretty nice wood shop in my basement and she has been watching me as I have built several things.

There are those that play for fun and there are those that try to make a few bucks while playing. So far I have not seen another machine quite like the LOM for such great and versatile "playing". I still wonder why so many of us hardly use our machines? Now that I am retired I said I am going to start playing with mine more . . . well, after I get my bride home this spring. She has expressed interest in how we do woodworking here. In Maragusan Philippines they do things WAY different. I watched a group of guys cut down two huge Nara trees and proceed to turn them both into lumber . . . with a really long chainsaw. And I have been watching them build a house out of concrete and the two Nara trees. A different world and way of doing things for sure.

As the guy who sold Legacy machines in UK and across the world I know that when the recession bit Andy Anderson did the right thing. His customers who were predominately hobbyist went away, it happens in a recession where as those in business had to find a solution and that was CNC. Luckily Andy had started to look hard at CNC and so kept the doors open and his workforce paid and feed. Being in business is tough and some times you have to make tough decisions. Cheers Roger in UK From: 'joe biunno' via Legacy Ornamental MillsReceived: 05/02/2019 15:59:44 +00:00To: Legacy Ornamental Millshers's what I remember from my inquiries regarding the Legacy rail... it is/was proprietary, back in the day Legacy was making the manual machines... i.e. you could not buy it, even if you knew who the manufacturer was... Legacy eventually discontinued using that rail, and switched to a more common, commercially available rail(possibility the rail that is available from the 80?20 company)… what I heard was that the original rail supplier was charging Legacy a "storage" and "maintenance" fee for the dies that were made exclusively for Legacy... Legacy decided to not pay the fees(which were exorbitant, if my memory is correct)… so the dies were destroyed... can't say for sure if all of this story is accurate, but I believe other group members could make some comments here regarding this specific situation... not sure if Legacy would so forthcoming to give legal permission to manufacture some parts for their earlier machines, but then again, would it be a viable business for someone to make that kind of investment... and would anyone really need permission to make a couple of items... it is more than just making the parts, there is advertising, marketing, etc., etc.... there is a very good reason why Legacy decided to shut it down... we in this group are die hard Legacy mill enthusiasts... and would probably cross a desert for a "Z" axis upgrade accessory, LOL!... but that is just a handful of people... with all the talk lately of split nuts, I made about 15 pieces a while back and it was suggested that if anyone needed one, they could contact me... well, no one contacted me!, LOL!... so what is the actual market out there for Legacy parts and/or accessories... even the railing... a minimum extrusion run might be a thousand feet(or more!)… at what cost?... and how long to sell that much railing?... packaging and shipping... it's complicated, for sure... and others have made a very good point of "keeping it in the family", so to speak... if Legacy is willing to continue making the parts that they do make now, then let's give the orders to them so there is an incentive for them to continue... I might assume that they are not making killer profits on those sales, and they are doing it to help support what is out there in regards to there older equipment... just some thoughts and comments... haven't commented for quite a while, but I do read all the posts... have not used my machine in a year or so... business stinks, in regards to what I would need the Legacy for... hope all is well with everyone out in Legacy Land!...
