Hi Jim,
 
I have a simple answer for this, the top rail should be at the height of 
"Your" belly button.  It's easy to view your work, and your arm does not 
have much fatigue in the handle positions.

Re: Legacy Video series.

[Kevin Miller]

I just bought my 1000exl and here are the VHS tapes I received:

Basic Designs Instructional Video
Advanced Designs Instructional Video
Contour Follower Techniques
Milling Hollow Spirals
Executive Gifts Project Video

Do you by any chance have these already converted to DVD or digital format?

I suspect that a portion of these tapes may be on YouTube, but the videos 
uploaded on their channel don't seem to have the same title as any of these 
tapes so I'm not sure.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hello Kevin,As Curtis said, "Welcome".If you don't mind, will you share with The Group how you came by your Mill?  How'd you find it? (Since I don't think anyone in The Group found it for sale and posted it here.  We usually post LOMs we find for sale in our local areas - CraigsList posts, upcoming estate auctions, eBay, etc.)What "deal" did you get (cost and components/accessories that came with the purchase)?Like Curtis also recommended - chuck up scrap wood.  Save your money and good wood for when you become somewhat proficient with the mill.Have a Great day - and be SAFE.  Mac-Original Message-

Re: New owner and just joined

[CURTIS GEORGE]

Hello again. 
Kevin I would like to note, These video that Mike made are exactly why this 
group was formed. Mike's methods are his own, Legacy dose not teach this way. 
and you will not find Mikes methods anywhere but here. GREAT METHODS, made from 
our group members. Share the wealth of information it the name of the game. 

One more Note. 
there is a slight learning curve to using the Legacy. Play a lot with your 
machine before trying ... and use scrap wood, fire wood... Do Not spend any 
real money for good wood before you, fully under stand how your machine will 
handle. 

Just my two cents worth. 
Have a great day. 

C.A.G.

Re: Height of Mill

[CURTIS GEORGE]

Hello and Good morning. 
If I can put in my two cents worth here. I 1000ex. is also a table mounted 
machine, I put my unit on a set of slides and my machine is mounted on the top 
of my work bench, when not in use the machine is slid to the back of the bench, 
and when I want to use it, I slide to the front. My machine is a bit higher 
then most, basically due to the work bench's height. the top of my rails are 4' 
off the ground. (I'm 5' 11") I find that I like watching the spindles turn with 
out having to do a lot of bending. (my machine is with in my normal range of 
vision standing straight up) 
What I am getting at here is , Jim what ever height you make you r machine, it 
will become yours. and no matter what height you make it,The machine has to be 
conferrable for you to use it. 
One more note, I have a bar stool in my shop, I like to sit on that stool and 
watch my machine cut, .The bar stool is higher, so when I sit on it, my range 
of vision is the same as when I stand. 

Good luck on your stand. and Please let us know how it turns out for you. ;-)

I should have noted that the height I gave was the 900 stand with the Legacy 
mobile wheels.

To All, 

I recently bought a model 900 without the legs. I am building a bench for it 
and am wondering what the height should be. For those of you with a model 900, 
how high is it off the floor and are you satisfied with the height? 

A better question might be, "What is the dimension from the floor to the top of 
the upper fixed rails? I think that encompasses more than just the 900. 

Also, how tall are you? I'm sure what is optimum for someone 5'5" is not the 
same for someone 6'0", etc, etc. 

Thank you for your help.
