Re: new custom mill

2024-08-30 Thread 'finu...@aol.com' via Legacy Ornamental Mills
ok, looked it up on the Legacy website... BASIC! machine price, $80,000... 
15" diameter by 72" capacity between centers... auto tool changer... and 
all the other bells and whistles you would expect for a machine at that 
price level... I might guess that they are on a made-to-order status

2024-08-30 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
Interesting... and quite the machine... a bit surprised that Legacy is 
showing some custom, machine fabrication work, that the client they made 
the machine for, requested... I would have thought that the client would 
have wanted that info kept propritory to their specific use... much like 
the so-called 40 ft. Legacy machine that they made quite a number of years 
ago(or at least that is what I heard!... LOL!)... and what anyone would use 
a 40ft Legacy for is also a bit of a mystery... and it seems Legacy is not 
letting that info out!... also, what does a machine, like what they showed 
in the video, cost in its basic form?

Re: A little Decoration

2024-06-25 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
for the record... I need to remind myself that my perspective towards the 
Legacy is strictly from a business (make some money!) viewpoint... and I 
might think that is the same for others... although I enjoy(ed) working and 
modifying my machine, it was always with the intention of it helping the 
shop produce billable work... taking it past that goal just did not seem 
prudent for me at the time... I'm extremely impressed with the work that a 
lot of the people in this group are making, both as an end product and the 
mods to the equipment to get those products made... I had a lot of plans to 
further  the mods to my machine, but the realization of what CNC equipment 
is capable of doing made me rethink my ambitions... the idea of what our 
Legacys can do and how unique it is(was), was what motivated me in the 
first place... take that away and it just doesn't seem like fun anymore... 
the fact that a person in their teens, with computer skills and a simple 
CNC machine can easily copy what would take us a good amount of time to do 
on our manual machines, is dishearting... and CNC equipment is quickly 
becoming affordable...  even older, used equipment is more affordable as it 
is being replaced by newer versions... as far as using a Legacy for 
personal use, I think is great... but for making money in a business 
setting, not so much... and I am too close to calling it quits to make the 
plunge into the CNC world, so I am sticking with my Legacy... some random 
thoughts on a slow day... Joe B.

Re: reeds and flutes

2024-06-03 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
regarding the Youtube video and the technique this person is using, is the 
exact way we have been fluting and reeding on legs, finials, bedposts, 
stair balusters, etc. for over 30 years ... a French splindle shaper with 
an indexing device... and I have to disagree, this is a far better and 
faster method to do these types of cuts... unlike a Legacy, no templates 
are necessary... the spindle "rides" along the profile of the piece being 
worked on... you need a gentle touch when doing this, but it is easily 
mastered... the profile of the cut desired is easily done as you only need 
to grind one cutter... the knife is then locked into the center of the 
shaper spindle and most times extends past the face of the spindle usually 
no more than 1/4" to 3/8" when doing these types of "kiss" milling cuts... 
I will say that this method is better suited when doing production work(as 
the person in the video is doing) and this method was eliminated by OSHA a 
long time ago... the Legacy is excellent for small runs, but you will need 
to make a template... regards... Joe Biunno

Re: legacy

2024-01-31 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
after skimming through the web site it drives home the fact why Legacy 
abandoned the manual machines and went with CNC... true wood carvers just 
went the way of the dodo bird!... LOL!... computer programmers can now ad 
"wood carver" and "furniture parts maker"  to their resume... from a 
business stand point, glad I'll be out of the furniture making field in a 
couple of years... Hopefully!... Joe B.

Re: Split nut tap

2024-01-23 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
not important to this thread per se, but I was told years ago that a 
company in Westbury NY supplied the lead screws for the Legacy machines 
directly to the Legacy company... I went directly to them for the 16ft 
piece I needed for my Legacy length modification and had a somewhat lengthy 
conversation with the company's management... moot point now but relevant 
if anyone in the group needs a length of lead screw for their own 
modifications... strange thing about it was the fact that the company was 
about 1/8 mile from where I was living at the time... the mod gods were 
with me for that very much needed part!... LOL!... Joe B.

 Hi Bill

 I spoke with Legacy this morning and they made their own lead screws 
 and they were indeed square profile threads. This would make sense as the 
 trapezoid profile would push the screw out of engagement with a load.  If 
 I 
 had access to a lathe I would make a thread chaser tool to rework the 
 profile of my half nuts made with the standard acme tap

 Anybody got a piece of lead screw floating around?

 I took a closer look this morning while at the Woodshop and my half 
 nuts were made with a tap that has trapezoid thread form, like a standard 
 acme.  The lead screw has square thread form, like a buttress thread.  I 
 am 
 going to consult my Machinery Handbook to find what is needed. But the 
 difference between the two profiles is preventing the half nuts I had made 
 from fully engaging. Diameters and lead are correct.  When I obtain the 
 proper tap, I should be able to rethread my current blocks and be good to 
 go.   BTW there is no reason these half nuts couldn’t be made from hard 
 maple.

and thus, the reason why Legacy dropped the manual machines... let's 
remember Legacy's ideal market was/is to people who are doing commercial, 
billable woodworking... the hobbyist/amateur woodworking market was not 
going to get them where they wanted to go... although I would comment that 
the one thing you never see mentioned in any CNC demo video is how much 
time it takes to make the program... certainly quicker if you have computer 
skills(not me!... LOL!)... but the older machines do have a use for certain 
operations, even at a commercial level(me, for example) when doing low 
quantity furniture parts... and I might think that for a lot in this group, 
the challenges of using the manual machine is what it's all about... if it 
was possible to set up the work, hit a button, walk away and have lunch, 
come back later and the job was done, the work would not be as rewarding as 
when overcoming the challenges of using a manual machine... with all of 
that being said, I am somewhat glad I will be leaving the woodworking 
business in a few years(hopefully!) and won't have to butt heads with my 
(button pushing)competitors!... hope all enjoyed the holidays!... your 
lurking group member, Joe Biunno

try this... when first logging onto the group's page, and where it lists 
all of the "conversations", on the left side of the page, click on "my 
membership settings"... then just a bit to the right, click on the box that 
is directly under "subscription", four choices should pop up, "each email", 
"digest", " abridged" and "no email"... click on "no email"... I believe 
this will stop all email notifications whenever someone posts a comment...

Re: LOM for sale

2023-02-23 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
[image: msimon twig dresser.jpg]
hey guys... finances are in the crapper, so need to keep working... plan 
now is to go to I'm 71(currently 68)... haven't used my Legacy in a very 
long time... it's in upstate NY, 120 miles away so I don't even have a 
chance to "play" with it(and I do have some interesting ideas)... went to 
the society of Ornamental Turners open house a week or so ago in Port 
Chester NY... quite a unique experience... a lot of Holtzapffel's and Rose 
Engine lathes... all on display, all there for members to play with... very 
far advanced than our Legacy's... but with strict size restrictions... wish 
I had the time to play with the Legacy and make some large scale items with 
high details... similar to what a Holtzapffel can do but on a much larger 
scale... some of the guys there are wound up pretty tight and almost all 
that I spoke to readily admitted that it is not a money making endeavor... 
it is a hobby first and foremost some incredibly beautiful things can 
be made with the equipment they have but at the expense of perhaps hundreds 
of hours to do it... I personally feel the challenge we all face is not to 
have the most sophisticated or accessorized machine(a computerized machine 
can put us all to shame!), it is knowing what to design so that we can then 
use our equipment to make it and then wowing anyone who takes the time to 
see it... anyway I thought I would post a piece we just finished for a 
decorator and client... carvings are hand done and were carved off the 
cabinet so they are very 3-dimensional... drawer handles are intertwined 
with the carvings... carvings are 23K water gilt and burnished real gold 
leaf(no oil size here) with a striaided lacquer background... and this is 
in a small entry foyer right off the passenger elevator... to give you an 
idea of what an expensive piece like this was given such an insignificant 
location... been following all of the posts and have to say the idea of 3D 
printing the gears in plastic is not a long term viable option in my 
opinion... metal is the only way to go... and if it turns out to be a bit 
pricey, well then that's the way it is... whether Legacy does it or some 
other outside source... get your order into Legacy now, bite the bullet and 
pay the price and simply be patient... regards to all... Joe Biunno

thanks Bill!... I feel fortunate that I can write off the costs of the mods 
I did as business expenses... some were a bit costly, but felt it was 
justified if the following week I was going to use the machine to make a 
costly, billable piece for a client... very impressed with what a number of 
people in this group have accomplished in the way of modifying their Legacy 
machines and it being somewhat of a "hobby" for them... Joe B.

for the new guys that might be interested... I believe I posted this 
previously, but not sure... my "Z" axis upgrade with the router rotating on 
the "X" plane  and tilting on the "Y" plane... this was done with the 
smallest tilting/rotary table I could find(Grizzly?)...  mounted the Legacy 
router mounting plate to the rotary/tilting table, then mounted the table 
to an aluminum plate that was then attached to the "Z" axis tower... 
multiple mounting holes allowed the router quite a bit of up and down 
mounting positions... also widened the "Z" axis tower by using some small 
pieces of leftover aluminum railing... this was probably the easiest and 
quickest mod i ever did on my machine... and the sight lines it created to 
the workpiece are very much improved from a typical "Z" axis... the router 
can rotate a full 360 degrees(but for what?... LOL!) and tilt out 90 
degrees,(I believe)... although I have not tested the limits of these 
variable router positions, physics being what they are, I might suspect 
there would be some vibration issues if taking large cuts with large router 
bits... so far, haven't had to do that, just small milling cuts on 
pre-turned workpieces with excellent results... can do undercuts with this 
setup, but then again, why?... I don't ever get to "play" with my Legacy to 
see what it is capable of doing, as it is necessary for me to spend most of 
my time at work doing billable jobs... I even had to move the machine quite 
a distance away from my everyday shop as it was rarely needed for the 
current work we are doing... photo shows this setup in use... doing a 
twisted fluted pole... because of the rotation of the router and the 
"attack" angle of the  fluting bit, there was little to no sanding 
necessary... big advantage then coming from top dead center(as previousle

hello everyone... it has been a while... yes, those are the steady rests I 
made a while back... they were specifically designed and built to suit my 
purpose to support very long curtain poles that could be as long as 15-16 
feet, so I made three rests... a follower rest just would not work for my 
application so I made the three steady rests... the base is a motorcycle 
lift piece that serves as the "Z" or vertical adjustment... not very 
expensive either... on top of the lift is an "X" "Y" cross slide with a 
vice built into it... the "X" or left-to-right feature of the slide is 
rarely needed, as I simply position the rest in the location needed and 
screw it down to the wooden bed of the base that supports the Legacy... the 
vise is a nice feature to have as i can make any piece I want to suit the 
profile of the piece I am milling... and with the option of milling from 
the top(12 o'clock) or the side(3 O'clock position)... in the photo the 
white material is a nylon of some kind(McMaster) the I bored out for 
different diameter poles... this was all done with the idea of production 
in mind, which has been very little of late... and one of these rests might 
not fit in a typical Legacy bed cavity as my space is 19" X 19"... but 
smaller pieces might be available to make a rest that's properly sized for 
the Legacy... most Legacy's would only need one rest... after studying the 
situation for a bit, I felt a following rest just had too many restrictions 
and complications... this design can easily hold any spindle, with or 
without a taper... and is very easy and quick to adjust... and is rock

Facebook 

  
... here is a link to a Maverick, CNC, 4 X 8 Legacy machine listed on 
Facebook Marketplace... Location is California... check out the link listed 
in the ad that shows what this machine can do... I thought it was some 
impressive work... and why I basically stopped modifying my Legacy to do 
more than what it was intended to do... from a financial and money making 
standpoint, computers are winning! and taking over... I am just too far 
along in my working career (68) to have the discipline to teach myself how 
to use the computer to turn/carve a piece of wood from a business and 
money-making perspective... but maybe someone in the group would be 
interested in this machine for sale... my best to all in the group1... Joe

Re: Name question

2022-11-09 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
hey guys!... to begin, I have been out of contact for a while(but still 
reading all of your posts) because of the passing of my brother, work has 
been challenging lately and I stupidly have been not understanding some 
settings on my computer which did not allow me to see the "comment" and 
"reply" icons for the group... all is in the past and I figured out the 
computer, so I am back!... I want to make a statement regarding the Legacy 
Company and their manual mills made in the past... to my knowledge, there 
were only a few companies making what we in the group would call an 
"ornamental mill", over the past 30, +/-, years... Legacy, Killinger, Vega 
and Sears(not counting some exotic, hydraulic, highly industrial copy 
lathes)... and I have owned and used them all... we all know the Sears unit 
and basically it is a toy and not to be given any serious consideration... 
Vega sold a twisting accessory that was only for twisting on spindles and 
had very limited use... it had to be used with their duplicator... it was 
not practical... Killinger wasn't a bad unit( I purchased three machines 
and proceeded to cut, weld and machine the three together to make a 12 ft. 
Frankenstein monster... got the jobs done that I needed but what a horror 
to use!) but like the other two first mentioned, very limited in what it 
could do... then comes the Legacy line... I was in contact with Andy 
basically when he first started the company... the innovations and 
improvements that he and his team came up with over those early years was 
incredible... to design, manufacture, market, educate, etc. their product 
line was quite the task... and think about how many shows they did and what 
it cost to do those woodworking shows!... and by far, they blew the 
competition away!... nothing was close to what the Legacy could do... and 
yet it still wasn't enough to keep the company viable due to a downturn in 
sales... sure, there are about 10 to 20 of us who would love to be able to 
buy gears, rails, accessories, etc. when we wanted or needed them, but the 
cost factor of manufacturing parts, mass productionof parts(only way to 
make it profitable), storage, book keeping, etc., etc. just wasn't a 
viable, long term, financial situation for Legacy... not enough interest in 
the machine... and in today's world with CNC carving/milling 
machinery(getting cheaper and more affordable every day!) and 3D printing 
machinery(soon to be in every home!... LOL!), a Legacy machine would be 
dead last in sales, if there were any at all... no sales of machines means 
no sales of parts or accessories... so for all of the "I wish I could buy 
the Evo machine today" guys, we all had our chance... we just didn't act on 
it... and if it was available today, for let's say $4,000, how many would 
step up to buy it?... if you find one, and you have to have it, but the 
owner doesn't really want to sell it, "make him an offer he can't refuse" 
and put it in your "collection" of Legacy machines... perhaps one day it 
will reach "Holtzapffel" status!... and if you think there are issues 
finding parts and accessories for Legacy machines, go have a conversation 
with the Holtzapffel guys!... LOL!... we all have our machines and all I 
can say is thanks to the Legacy team(and specifically Andy) for making a 
very unique piece of equipment... I know I could not have made it better... 
rant over!... Joe B.

wow!... for all the "I wish I had one of those" guys out there, all it 
takes is money to obtain one of those Evo's... find someone who has one and 
offer a ridiculous amount of money... people are either complaining that 
there weren't enough machines to suit their needs or they are too 
expensive... Delta, Powermatic, and now Craftsman all discontinued 
supporting many machines that they made over the past years... it's a fact 
of business... if there are not a lot of people that want your product you 
stop making that product and move on to something else... if an ornamental 
mill was still that desireable, the machines that are still out in the wild 
would be selling for a lot more than they currently are... I just do not 
get the narrative that is constantly being presented here... let it go 
already... Joe B.

Re: The Sound Of Silence & Roping

2021-06-10 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills

hey Bill... a bit of confusion on my part... to begin, I do not have access 
to my machine this week... I am in the city and the machines is upstate... 
so my eyes are not on it to properly answer your question... but I went to 
McMaster-Carr and they do not have a 10-32 T-slot nut, so I now seem to 
remember that I used the Legacy piece that is rectangular with rounded ends 
and the thread in the middle... I have a lot of Legacy hardware left over 
when I combined the two machines and these worked well for what I was 
doing... I do seem to remember that I have seen these available 
commercially but I can't remember from where... but it was a 10-32 thread, 
that I remember... Joe

2021-06-09 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
hey Bill... let me start by saying that I don't have access to my Legacy on 
a daily basis... I was forced to downsize my shop due to economics and the 
legacy did not warrant a full time place in the new shop due to the little 
use it got... it is in a warehouse a bit upstate from where the shop is(110 
miles)... I usually go up to the warehouse every other weekend(26 times a 
year!... LOL!)... and I believe you are referring to how I widened my "Z" 
axis... I began by cutting some small pieces of Legacy aluminum rail from a 
Legacy machine base that was not being used... these were about 3" long... 
I then used a "T" nut(McMaster-Carr) with a 10-32 thread that fit snuggly 
in the "groove" of the rail and stuck out far enough to also fit into the 
groove of the other rail... that was a bit of luck on my part... so 
basically, the two rails(the short piece and the originally piece from the 
"Z" axis) registered and self-aligned themselves... I then drilled a hole 
through the "spline of the Legacy rail to correspond with the location of 
the "T" nut in the short piece... doesn't show in the photo, but if you 
look at the vertical piece of aluminum rail in the same photo, you can see 
a bit of the 10-32, socket head bolt peeking through the center spline of 
the rail... in fact, I can see 5 drillings in that vertical rail... this 
was an easy, quick mod that took about an hour... no special tooling, 
machining or welding was necessary... and made a big improvement as to what 
was happening below with the router... and also gave me the room to angle 
the router, when that was needed to do spiral cuts from the side... at this

Re: Crank handle indexing

2021-06-09 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
Hey Mike... does this indexing method work only if the number is divisible 
by 4?... for example, in the last example you used, if the diameter was 5" 
instead of 4.75, the math doesn't fall on even numbers... 5 X 3.14 = 
15.7... 15.7 divided by .75 = 20.93... 20.93 divided by 4 = 5.23 pitch... I 
always thought the pitch is the pitch, whatever it might be, and would take 
importance over any other factor, like the width of cut... why would the 
pitch be determined by that 4 number?... now if you are making something of 
your own design, then certainly you have the option of making any pitch you 
want... but for certain designs, sometimes the pitch needs to be larger or 
smaller than what the formula dictates... I was always surprised why Legacy 
never had a better indexing method when doing spiraling work... the seemed 
to work out just about everything else very well on their design, but not 
indexing when doing spiral work... thanks for your input... Joe B.

if you need to get a "taste" as to what Holtzapffel turning equipment looks 
like and some sampling as to the type of work that can be done, here is a 
Facebook link... there are others, but they require you to send a request 
and then wait for approval... check it out, it is some remarkable stuff

I will jump this conversation with a question to the CNC guys, and Tracy 
Smith, which is, how much of this decorative milling can realistically be 
done on a CNC?... without spending a lifetime programming a computer to do 
a series of complex cuts... and with the understanding that when doing this 
kind of decorative milling work on any particular item, perhaps a vase or

the limitation I always saw with a Holtzapffel was the fact that since it 
was the headstock that was rocking, and not the tailstock, you are limited 
as to the size of your workpiece... so to solve this you might think to 
just set something up to rock the tailstock in unison with the headstock... 
not easy to accomplish this... and we all know anything can be done, but at 
what expense and labors?... and trying to replicate what a Holtzapffel can 
do, on a Legacy machine, would be somewhat of a suicide mission, in my 
opinion... but perhaps we can come close!, LOL!... so the thing that a 
Legacy can offer that a Holtzapffel cannot, is the capability to do a much 
larger workpiece... but to rock the headstock and tailstock on a Legacy is 
a major engineering task, so I thought it would be easier to rock the 
cutter instead... so the idea is to mount an array of rosettes behind the 
router, on the router sled... whether it be the typical Legacy router bed 
or perhaps the Legacy "Z" axis upgrade router mount... this would not be 
too difficult, but the real challenge of this mod would be to coordinate 
the rotation of the rosettes with the movement of the router along the "X" 
axis... I'll discuss in a following comment

rose engine attachment/mod for a Legacy mill

a "rose engine lathe" can be a very complex topic and a lot of which i do

step into the world of "Holtzapffel"... I would be willing to bet that a

were most often somewhat on the smaller size... these machines were made in 
the 1800's and were so expensive, that they could only be afforded be Kings 
and the ultra wealthy at that time... and it was used by these people as 
somewhat of a hobby, doing a little bit of turning and/or milling at a 
time... think of a stamp collector, for example... not many were made and 
the machines that are available today can easily be worth six figures, 
depending on the model and what accessories it had with it... one of the 
things it could do is a type of "pumping" action that was achieved by 
rocking the headstock in and out while a spinning, stationary cutter cut 
into the workpiece... quite often the workpiece was a substantial piece of 
ivory... this pumping action was achieved by a type of bearing rubbing 
against a wheel that had shaped "waves" or "scallops" cut into its edge...

Bill, I found the video on you tube... seems you are correct... I 
previously thought I heard Tracy say "ball bearing" but I was wrong... too

my interest in this is to see if this is an easy, inexpensive way for all 
those people who have the older, aluminum rail Legacy machines to add a 
ball bearing glide to their X and Y axis'... it's too late for me, as I 
have already retrofitted all three axis' on my machine with a different 
system, but I still find it interesting how Legacy solved this issue so 
easily and what seems to be so efficiently... their engineering into their 
earlier machines is impressive, in my opinion... regards... Joe B.

Legacy adjustable glide system

2021-05-27 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
in viewing the Legacy video that Bill posted(thanks Bill!), it seems Legacy 
had what they called an "adjustable glide", which I interpret as a linear 
ball bearing rail glide... I don't remember ever hearing about this when 
the group's discussions revolved around linear glides for the Legacy... 
seems Legacy came up with a neat, compact, ball bearing glide that easily 
adapts to the current Legacy router carriages(either the simple carriage or 
the "Z" axis upgrade tower)
Questions:
1) does anyone in this group have one of these glides that they could take 
detailed  photos of and post them to this 
discussion?
2) was this a custom piece made by Legacy?(I would guess it was, but just 
putting that   question out there)
3) what are the chances that Legacy has any of these "leftover" in their 
stock and would  they be willing to sell them?
4) if no longer available, how difficult would it be to reproduce?... 
perhaps using a 3D  printer?
it could eliminate the need for those black top hats, less wear on 
the acme lead screws and split nuts... and as mentioned in the video, it 
can reduce backlash... anyone out in Legacy Land care to chime in on 
this?... thanks... Joe B.

to Tom Weaver... Tom, does your CNC have the rack-and-pinion version of the 
CNC upgrade?... or do you have the stepper motors connected to the acme 
5/8-4 threaded rods?... if it is the rack-and-pinion version, could you 
please post some photos of it... I have never seen the r and p setup on a 
machine... thanks... Joe B.

Bill... I would think that the more common gear sets are there... for my 
estimating purposes, and for what I see all that is there, I would think 
the original owner purchased all of the gear sets... of course it needs to 
be verified... and if it is found that they are not there, than a price 
adjustment is in order... but from the photos that I have seen, this 
original user ran through the catalog and purchased everything Legacy had 
to offer at the time... it is my understanding that there are more boxes 
the seller has to go through... so I am making some assumptions here... 
lets see where this goes... here are photos of those extra long router 
bits... its all good stuff here... part of what is interesting is 
everyone's opinions... Joe B.

Hey Bill!... I might think it will be more than the $3,500 you are 
estimating... spoke to the seller and he mentioned that there are at least 
12 of those 6" long Magnate bits that are made specifically for the Legacy 
machine and they are basically in brand new condition I just bought two 
of those(fluting, 1/2" diameter flute) from Magnate and they were $50 
each!... and there are still boxes that the seller is going through... so 
it will be interesting to see where this all settles into... but the big 
key is who is willing to travel to that part of the country to seal the 
deal... as mentioned, there is no parting out of this stuff and there will 
be no crating/packing/shipping of this entire lot of stuff... the seller is 
seeing all of these comments now, and will soon be commenting himself once 
he is approved into the group, so everyone can then have contact with him 
directly... good luck to all and the seller as well... Joe B.

Re: the Holy Grail of Legacy machines

2021-05-26 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
okay, let's clarify a few things... I am not in any way in control of this 
sale... I am simply lending some guidance to a person who has no desire to 
keep this recently acquired Legacy machine and has little to no 
understanding of what the machine is or what it is capable of doing... I 
could compare this situation to the person who luckily came across those 
three Legacy 1800's with a lot of parts and accessories... they just want 
to sell it all at a fair price... he is not a personal friend, but then 
again I make friends easily, so lets just say he is an acquaintance, for 
now... this person reached out to me from my Legacy Facebook page and sent 
me a message requesting some advice... this equipment is not being parted 
out... it is a package deal... there is only one drive motor, with controls 
and limit switches... the other motors are from the CNC upgrade package and 
they are stepper motors, very different from the lead screw drive motor 
that a lot of us have and is still available from Grainger(one possible 
source)... as far as a price for everything, that is the difficult part... 
was hoping that someone here, who was not interested in the deal, would 
lend an honest opinion as to what they think it all might be worth... 
perhaps Tim K. could offer an opinion, whether it be here or in private to 
me, so I could forward it to the current owner... good luck to all!... Joe 
B.

the Holy Grail of Legacy machines

2021-05-25 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
okay guys, time to separate the men from the boys!... I was recently 
contacted by someone who just obtained a Legacy 1500 and does not know 
anything about the machine or how it works... and they are in the market to 
sell this Legacy... here is a list of the "goodies"
1) CNC legacy upgrade package, not installed... most likely never 
installed... with the software CDs!
2) 4X gear package upgrade... yes, 4X!... verified myself and with the 
installation sheet
3) "Z" axis upgrade
4) rotary table with the flex piece to connect it to the head stock
5) Legacy aluminum rail base with casters
6) original lead screw drive motor with the controls and limit switches
7) nice Porter Cable router on it
8) practically every Legacy option you could ever imagine
9) I am sure there are router bits, just haven't gotten that far into the 
inventory

I am guiding this person through the process, so no low ballers!... LOL!... 
general location is the southwest United States... certainly photos will be 
available, most likely tomorrow's postings... could use some assistance in 
helping with a fair price for this person... for the record, I have no 
interest myself(that remark is mostly directed to Mac!)... anyone can email 
me at ... or call my cell anytime 516-606-6627... once a 
fair price has been offered I will give the contact info of the seller and 
I am then backing away... just trying to help someone who reached out to 
me... ok guys, let's see where this goes... regards... Joe Biunno

to the administrator of the group, I recently had a Robert Thomas Weaver 
reach out to me asking for some help with his Legacy 1200, with the CNC 
upgrade... I could not help him and suggested he join this group... he said 
he tried but has yet to hear back if he has been accepted into the group... 
any chance someone can follow up on this?... thanks... Joe Biunno

Re: leadscrew wobble

2021-02-26 Thread &#x27;finu...@aol.com&#x27; via Legacy Ornamental Mills
Re: leadscrew wobble... possibly consider that the feed rate of the lead 
screw is too fast for the cutting action of the bit being used... and there 
most likely could be some back pressure being put on the lead screw and 
thus causing it to wobble...perhaps try slowing down the lead screw, 
without slowing the RPM's on the headstock... that might stop the wobble...

something for the Legacy CNC guys

 seems to be a very low price for a Legacy CNC, but it does look like it
