Re: dyna-glide

Hello Bill (and everyone.)
http://dynaglideplus.com/tool/ I sent a message to Dynaglide the company its 
self.We will see what comes of it. Hopefully this new hand pump version can be 
shipped to you? 
Don't use WD40 ! 
I use Johnson and Johnson paste (floor) wax on most of my woodworking tools, 
Yes takes more time,with the wiping on and off, but it works well. 
I know that Mike Pung has said on his wood chuck (steel rails) he uses paraffin 
block (or canning) wax. again its more work than using Dyna-Glide but both 
compounds are 100x better than using WD.
I have a friend who used Pam. cooking spray (oil) on his machines and says that 
he likes it.and for the cost it is by far the cheapes idea that Ive 
heard,.Everyone Grocery store sell Pam.and it only cost $3.00 per can !  (I 
have not tried it yet for my self.but it too would be better than using WD in 
my book)
Hopefully we will find you a new source of Dyna-Glide for you
Also. I am still playing around with some home maid brews using liquid Paraffin 
(mineral oil mainly) with different dryers added, so far I've had some luck but 
...
Hopefully Dyna-Glide company will respond to this message?
Good luck.And have a Great day.

  My source of my version of dyna-glide (oneshot)  has stopped so I find myself 
again looking. so I'm asking if anyone out there knows a way or a place that 
will ship it overseas

  I know Canada still has surface mail perhaps aerosols can be shipped this way 
to me or if anyone knows a courier company that will ship the stuff door to door

  To Australia to me please let me know or a way of getting it in bulk form for 
a puffer bottle

  I do not want to go back to WD40 it is just too messy and makes it worse each 
time you use it.

Re: dyna-glide

2012-11-30 Thread mwfoscue
Hello all,I'd like to add another possible "remedy" to your Dynaglide quandry. I own a "Little Giant" ladder system. In their maintenance instructions they recommend you spray various parts of the ladder with Endust furniture polish. Check this link: http://www.littlegiantladder.com/instructional-videos.html (Video is second up from bottom on the right side) I have used the Endust as they describe - and it works REALLY well; I am confident you will find it to be an acceptable substitute. A side benefit: Your wife may think you are actually cleaning up in the shop - just don't let her use it all up in the rest of the home. LoL Macon-Original Message-

If you go to an Auto paint store you will be able to color match enamel

Re: A 500 that has aluminum rather than steel rails for sale on Ebay for too much

2012-11-30 Thread Tim Krause
Hi All, 

The owner added some more photos.  It's really close to the 600 that you bought 
Begat.  Red Legs.  I still can't see the method of elevation but I'm assuming 
it's plates on the front and back of the carriage just like the 600.   I'd give 
it a $500 value as is.   If I saw it at a garage sale, I'd say $250.  Although 
that machine has plastic gears, they are 1/4 and that makes them pretty 
durable and they are quite in operation.  They use to say tapering is possible 
by milling from the side.  I find that technique takes skill and practice to 
perfect.

Tim,

Yes, that looks just like the 600, including the square stops and 1/4
plastic gears.  I paid $600 but got $300 in magnate bits, though I didn't
get a router.  Well, we will just have to wait to see what the market says
about $1750.

Legacy manual machines

2012-11-30 Thread cwhitha...@comcast.net
I have had occassion to correspond by email and discuss by telephone
the status of Legacy Ornamental Mills 900, 1200, etc. The reason for
my inquiry was that the mobility kit, i.e., the 5 inch casters, on
my 900 were losing sections of their tread and I wanted replacements.
My initial inquiries went unanswered, and so I found adequate
repalcements from Woodcraft in the form of 3 inch casters. However,
this inquiry seemed to get my name in Legacy's database as someone
interested in their CNC machines. I explained to John in sales that I
am retired in my 70s and although I at one time designed computers and
find CNC machines quite interesting, I can make enough sawdust with my
manual machines in my shop. What I really wanted to know was whether
we, as owners of their manual machines, had been orphaned and could
not look to Legacy for support in the form of replacement parts and
accessories. What I was told was that as a result of the 2007
recession, a number of Legacy's suppliers had gone out of business.
That was the reason I could not get replacement casters. I was also
told that their supplier for the custom aluminum extrusions had gone
out of business, which was the reason that they were no longer making
manual machines. However, I was also told that Legacy was re-
engineering their manual machines, and John implied that there would
be an announcement in the near future to that effect.
