Hey Anthony,

 

Just throwing my 5 cents worth in but when I got my 1200 LOM I went direct to 
Legacy and spoke to Cindy.

It took a few weeks but was able to get all the gearing, indexing plates, split 
nuts, misc. track nuts and the 

spray for slides "Easy Glide" I think its called. 

I had to spend the money but so worth it to have the complete package. other 
items you just have to wait

for people to sell parts. 

Hope that helps. I'm sure others answered last night at some crazy late hours 
lol. 


Kind Regards,

I am reproducing five balusters that have a double-start barley twist.  A 
normal double-start twist, I would usually make by hand.  These balusters 
have four flats that parallel as a transition between each bead and cove 
along the twist.  These make it very difficult to work by hand.

I have gained access to a legacy 1000 mill.  Unfortunately, the travel of 
the twist is 2.25 inches.  That means that I either need a 2.25 or 9 gear; 
the latter could be used with the .25 reduction gear.  Unfortunately, the 
normal gear sets don't include either.  Not only have I never used a legacy 
mill, but I know little about making gears or working metal.

Do you have a suggestion?
Perhaps my previous message only reached you rather than the group as a 
whole.

Very Nice Anthony!

Awesome wand.

Where did you find A Giraffe femur?


What I have been doing is cutting bone disks out of Cow bones, and then 
gluing the disks into a solid blanks for my turnings. sorta like making bone 
Plywood. It take more time to make the blank then it dose to turn it. But 
the results are very nice.
Please let us know more about what you are doing.

I read that you were considering turning some bone.
I have turned a couple of kinds of bone, this wand is made of Giraffe femur.
It is the densest bone, and has the largest cross section that I have used.
The other materials are Blackwood, Bocote, Pink Ivory, Boxwood, Verawood,
Satine, and Osage Orange.
I call it the Eveready Swiss Army Utility Wand.  Had to get the magical
batteries, the small pieces that screw into the base of the handle, by
seagull, the owls can't fly across the Atlantic, from the Eveready shop in
Diagon Alley.  The toothpick was necessary to quality for Swiss Army.

HI everyone.

I hope everyone  is well?

Its COLD in my shop, So I spent most of my day staying inside. I've been
looking for projects to play with on the Legacy and or my Lathe. On the
internet today.

I want to do some more bone turning, I have already cut out a number of bone
disks, I am looking forward to gluing them up into something that I can
turn, soon.
The problem is What should I make?
I don't like pen's!
I have already made a number of magnify glass's and other kits type of
projects.

I have gone to a number of dollar stores and hardware and thrift stores,
looking for cheaply made things that can be re-worked. but so far no luck
finding anything new.
So I thought I would ask you all.  Dose anyone know of a nice projects, that
you like to make? Family heirloom type of stuff.  Perhaps a letter opener?
or ???

Any and all ideas are welcome.

Looking forward to talking to you all more.

Have a good night.

C.A.G.
