In my opinion the main reason Evolution Mill didn’t sell was there was no extras for it and none of the regular ones fitted it
accept for the 2x and .25 gear sets. I know that was the reason I went with the revo over the Evolution Mill and I was not a fan of a plastic gear linkage . but those linier rails would have been great for template copying work if the Evolution had that capability. I would like to know if it came with a user manual and if it did I sure would like a copy of it to see what that mill can do Bill From: 'Curt George' via Legacy Ornamental Mills <legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com> Sent: Monday, 7 November 2022 7:28 AM To: Legacy Ornamental Mills <legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com> Subject: Re: Name question Hello Dan. The Legacy history page that Tim sent is a good source of information. Your REVO is one neat machine! In many ways it is a better machine then the other Legacy Ornamental mills Legacy made before. I was really shocked when Legacy discontinued it, (I was so sure that Legacy was going to continue making the REVO, Even though they told us that they were going to stop making the manual machines .) NOW The Evolution mill, Was Legacy's last attempt in the manual line of machine. (I personally do not think Legacy made a lot of them) I only know of two people in our group who own one. (and one of them I have not heard form in a number of years now.) I see the Evolution Mill , in the same light as the Ford's Edsel. ( way a head of its time, but it did not sell well, And was quickly discontinued . ) The Evolution mill had linear rail, ball bearing headstock and acme screw movement, It had a multi directional movement in the Z axis. All steel frame. The only down side was, the size. (if it could handle the same size, as my 1000ex dose. I would have bought one.) Since you Own a REVO. Do you have a motor control on your machine?

I own what the manual calls a "REVO" legacy mill, which the fine print spells out as short for "...a revolutionary new design." So am I missing something here?
