I have never heard of any of the metal gears ever being damaged during use ever, unless abused by the operator
like if the mill fell over onto the floor or something so yes your right lost along the way Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com <legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Mike Newman Sent: Saturday, 31 December 2022 12:16 AM To: Legacy Ornamental Mills <legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com> Subject: Re: issues not having the reversing left/right gear set The machine I'm looking at now is a 1200. The owner(who bought it used) cannot find any drive gears other than the one on the unit. Also interesting enough as I had said before the reversing gear set is on the machine and they cannot find the left hand directional gear. The person said they bought to do spirals and such ,but then headed in another direction so did not actually use. My gut is telling me that they either bought it not understanding what it was missing and then found it to be non functional for what they needed with the missing gears and therefore it set unused. Or they just misplaced the most important parts over time and now cant find them. What I find interesting is that so far any machine that I have seen that is lower priced is missing these gears and therefore not a current option, but every machine that has the gears appears to be over priced for what I'm willing to pay for an obsolete machine with a limited specific functionality. I assume that under normal usage the gears should not be wearing out, but could they get damaged in use? If not then obviously all of these gears are being lost along the way.

Remember that the Legacy comes with 7 drive gears, and at least one Standard gear set. and two directional gears sets, Beyond that everything is Gravy! I find it very funny that most Second hand Legacy's you can find on the market today, are missing gears. I have no idea why? Its not like they will fit any other machine on the market, or have any other uses. BUT The last Three Legacy's that I've bought second hand were all missing the gears. So knowing this, Perhaps it could be a good way to get someone selling a Legacy to lower the price, if they are missing parts? Many of these people have no idea on what they have, its just something taking up space, and they just want to get rid of it. Wish you luck on finding your own Legacy. talk to you more latter. Have a good night. C.A.G.

Also it currently shows what I believe is the reversing gear set (2 small gears in housing}on the mill but not showing a photo of the std single gear with mounting u-channel. Is this as big an issue as not having drive gears? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Legacy Ornamental Mills" group.
