RE: Legacy 800 + for a nice starting price on E-bay

Thu, 06 Jun 2019 23:21:57 -0700

Tim, Bill, Mike,
Am I correct in my assumption that the Model 800 was a "stripped down" (to be less expensive) version of the Model 900.
They seem to me to share quite a few features in common - with the 900 being a much more tricked out unit.  I mention a few in an earlier post.
Thanks.
Mac

That is the best picture that I have.  Sorry.

I agree speak up we can help you set up the mill and you will get a better price for it.

 

Also Tim have you got a clear pic of a 800 I would like to see one, the pic on the legacy history page is not clear enough to enlarge to see clearly.

Tim,

 

We are going to have to call you "Sherlock Krause"!  Good observation and deduction!

 

After all our comments about it, if he/she is a lurker, they probably won't speak up now.

 

Aaawww, come on now, owner - we mean no personal afront to you if you are (a lurker).  We are much more curious as to WHY it is assembled the way it is.

You (owner) may have VERY cogent reasons for it being the way it is.  You sure have us wondering!

 

Mac

Well Bill,

Here's my theory on hacking the rails.  His username reflects he's a guitar builder.  If he is building electric guitars with a Gibson or Fender design he would need a couple more inches to be able to route around the body.  Just an educated guess or one left field dream. 

$400 is an fantastic price.  Did anyone happen to notice his gear where setup in the Revo mode.  Makes me wonder if the seller is a lurker in this group.

Not sure in anyone’s right mind why you would ever cut off rails, I have to assume he was working blind without a assembly manual and didn’t  even do a search online for a pic of a mill to follow.

I think I see what he did.

 

Left the bottom rails off (4th axis height)

Doubled the front rail and back rail. Although partially on the back.

Maybe installed the router plate backwards offsetting the axis. This caused the router to hit the back rail which might be why he cut it off.

 

He did not follow the assembly manual for sure.

Long time lurker here. 

 

I have a 800 cnc and the rails are not like the in the picture. Also this same picture is listed as the Legacy 1000 on ebay.

A long time ago I sold at least 1 Model 800 here in the UK and it certainly did not have that short length of rail at each end. I think that either Richard or Bill have been over raiding the USA looking for extrusion and cut a bit out. That is not a factory standard.

Cheers

Look at the first picture in the upper left hand corner behind the curtain.  It looks like two pieces of railing if my eyes do not deceive me.   Images of a model 800 are few and far between.

Bill (and all others),

Did you see the comments I sent after getting Curtis' email with the link to the LOM 800 on eBay?

I expressed a very similar observation - along with several more.

It is a rather "odd" Mill - to say the least. (We can understand why the owner "gave up" on it.)

Something odd about this 800 I have not seen one with one inner rail on one side and 2 little short pieces on the other. looking at the pic on its instruction manual looks like it has a inner rail on both sides.otherwise how can you move the tailstock along for different length work
