and dues,this is to help a young relative back into civvies,not all of him

REVO SALE

2011-07-19 Thread MACSWAG
Hi everybody, It's been a long time since I have posted,nice to see
all the old familiar faces are still very busy, The time has come
owing to a bereavement and now ill health,sic.Arthritis and
emphysema,I have decided to sell off my tools and go find some
sunshine,

For sale is my REVO AND TURNTABLE AND THE ROUTER TABLE ATTACHMENT AND
ALL THE GEARS YOU CAN THINK OF ALSO ALL THE CUTTERS TO NUMEROUS TO
QUOTE,ALSO DOGS AND REVERSE GEARS AND TURNTABLE
UNIVERSAL LINK,ALSO THE PEN MANDREL KIT ,UNUSED,AND TIM'S
RECIPROCATOR,A MUST FOR ANY REVO OWNER,ALSO A ELECTRIC GISMO FOR
SLOWING DOWN AN ELECTRIC DRILL ATTACHMENT THAT I USE TO POWER THE LEAD
SCREW,SAVES A LOT OF WINDING,THIS ALSO COMES WITH A VERY GOOD
ROUTER,STILL ATTACHED,A
SPARE CUT NUT ,ALL THE SPANNERS AND TOOLS,AND TWO DESIGN PADS AND
THEIR PLASTIC TEMPLATESAND ANYTHING ELSE I COME ACROSS IN MY WORKSHOP,
I will post a photo soon as I can clear my w/shop and get a nice sunny
day to put it all on a table outside,I'm sad to see it go but it needs
a younger enthusiastic man to get a lot more pleasure from it, as I
say I just want to get away for a wee while,this would probably be of
more interest to someone in BRITAIN,although I will post anywhere in
the world but it would be pricey as it will all weigh quite a bit and
would best to be picked up from my home in the new forest area,e.g.the
south coast, it is difficult to put a price on all this gear,you can't
buy it anymore, so  I'm asking for £ 1200.please, I will not split it
up as the value is in the total lot and will enable someone to start
rite away producing the lovely wood work they want to make,so come on
lads shake the old baccy tin and count your pennies,I'm also nearly
deaf now,legacy from working in heavy industry,so I can't talk on the
phone,
so here is my E/MAIL. ADD.   (sandra.dill...@virginmedia.com )I know I
shouldn't make my add public but I have no choice,don't get old chaps
it's no fun,hoping to hear from you guys soon, MAC.

Thank you chaps for your kindness,and your prayers CAG.we need them
right now, Tim,I was thinking along the lines of small Rosette circles
round the outside circumference and conected by deepening radial cuts
from the centre
to be inlaid with a dark wood like Ebony,small bits of that can be
acquired quite reasonably priced,as like pen bits,and shaved to
fit,what do you think, MAC.

Revo,but the rotary table needed lubing and the Delron spacers shaved
to all match,but it is a great addition to anybody's tools,MAC.

Hi C.A.G.and thank you for the kind words,the wood is well seasoned
YEW,just turned from the only piece I had,it is hollowed out and
threaded body and lid,all turned complete with the finials,when you
get as far as the fin/s. you have to be very careful
or it will take off across the shop,the base and supports are from the
same block,try to match the as best you can when turning the supports
and the angle is determined by the circ/m. of the ring and the height
and balance,have a go it's a lot of pleasure and concentration,keep
chippin, MAC

Re: SUSPENDED BOWL

2010-02-19 Thread MACSWAG
Hello chaps,& Bill,I will try to lay it out as best I can I don't use
measures as such ,just think it up and turn it and modify as it
progresses,but I think it is,
about these,
the Bowl was finished dimention, 24"in circum, by 7-1/2" across,by 6"
deep.
 the base was18"in circum, by 5-!/2"
across,by 1" thick
the top fin turned on the lathe,  2" long a 1"space
the bottom finial turned on lathe2-1/2" to allow for a little
spigot in the base
the spiraled supports   12" long by 3/4" dia.
also a little spiral along the top of the bines/pitch was made with a
very small 1/4"router beading bit,before hollowing,although the
supports are Oak I used
a thin stock support on my table,very tricky blew a couple before I
got it right,I milled the tops and left a little spigot on the
bottom,I suppose you could do anything you want,the tops were supposed
to be little thistles, but I'm a wee bit clumsy with the arthritis so
settled for milk churns,the bowl was Maple, turned on the lathe quite
thin but it is quite a strong wood and will hold,the angle of the
supports depends on the circumference of the bowl and the base,
you have to drill a very small hole where you want them to join the
bowl and insert a wee dowel, I used a matchstick for that, devilishly
cunning these Brits,
the base you can shape any way you fancy but best to use a heavy wood
for the balance,all these measurements are approx.and off the top of
my head,because it is all finished you see,so if you fancy just get
stuck in and have fun, MAC

Oh boy,well I can but try to do that,when you say E/Ml. do you mean
when I post on the forum,that's how I would try to show them you
see,we have just sold that one and it was only cheap pine,twisted and
fluted and well sanded,we got £15.00. for that, so now we are going to
buy a larger rope twist cutter from Roger,so I will get Clive to try
to do it again and when it's finished we can proudly show all you
chaps what a hope and a prayer can do,LOL, MAC.

DUST AND SHAVINGS

2010-02-16 Thread MACSWAG
On my Revo, as Bill said, it makes a lot of dust and chippins,well I
use a vacuum a mister Henry domestic one for the home,believe it or
not it would suck your hair off,anyway,on the front of the Router
carriage I drilled a hole and screwed a open ended bracket,like you
use on a shelf face for holding tools,the hose  just clips in and
rides along with the Router,it sucks eighty percent of the waste and
at the end of the day we don't have to much mess to clean up,just a we
bit of a tip I hope, MAC.

church I have formed a self help group of disabled men,we are six
now,I'm now disabled but I wont go down easy,so we all do what we can
and it works,we also have two mature young chaps from the sheltered
house for men with Downs syndrome.they assemble and do what they
can,got a job to get them to go home,nice men,my mate RON,he has had a
stroke and one side of his body don't work anymore so he does the
sanding and loves it,he is also very brainy and he will use the D/
Kt.for us,just looking at some of the things it can do looks like we
will have to raise funds for more Router bits,our vicar the
Rev.David,is cajoling all his flock to give us any timber and storm
falls,and a chap who looks after the forest of Dean yew trees,"oldest
in the world" who is an ex villager is keeping for us any
stormfalls,so by the summer we should have a table of goodys to sell
at the church fete and the neighboring village fetes,so this forum has
been great for us,thank you all for donating your wisdom and tips,
keep chippin,  MAC.

STIFFENING UP A REVO

2010-01-05 Thread MACSWAG


Hi chaps,I have Revo as you probably know by now,well to save all the
laborious winding back and forwards on a long twist I mounted a
power-drill with variable speeds and reverse switch,I also mounted an
older Black and Decker model D520.which sits in its own frame,onto
wood block to level with the acme screw (lead screw)I use a step down
to reduce revs on the D520. but the Revo moves a lot with the revs,has
anyone stiffened up a Revo,and what did you find the best
solution,thanks,MAC.

Re: 71/2"pitch

Hello chaps,what a dimo I am,I had it right all along,what I was
expecting was a long extended pitch,like a single strip of seven and a
half inches,instead it was cutting around for the length of that
71/2",just like a normal twist, if that makes sense,I want to make an
elongated twist with just two bines so the pitch I need is in the
2xgears.which I will buy in the new year,to near Xmas.now,thanks for
your postings,keep chippin,MAC.

Hi all, Steve,can't you just disengage the CNC.from your Legacy and
make small stuff with that,as far as I can see the big ones are mostly
used for commercial work anyway,the Revo and Revo Craftmaster are the
same machine only the Craftmaster package came with extra gears and
pen making gear,it is a complete unit,EG.router table, vertical
clamping gear,dovetail gear,tenon/morticing
gear,and a few other bits and bobs,I bought the turntable to go with
it,what a boon thatis,also TIM.supplys a great little gadget you will
just love,it enables you to do wavy cuts of any description,great fun
believe me,I will drop Roger a line right now and ask him to contact
you through the forum if he has a Revo grab it you will be more than
pleased with what this machine is capable of,I've made all my Xmas
presents on mine,I'm retired you see and the state pension is c**p,so
I have to spread it out a bit,so get in there and good luck, MAC

Re: ribbon twist

2009-12-13 Thread MACSWAG
Hi Bill & C.A.G, The "pilaster dogs" are very similar to the little
square index mounting dogs you use on the Revo.for making
spindles,only they are reversed with holes on the side so as you can
mount four sides with pieces of board and mill just like you would a
ordinary spindle, if you want a better description than I can give go
into the legacy site and on their supply list you can actually see
them,Euro Roger will have them I should think,To C.A.G.hello friend,I
would like to try and make the pillow cut,I have seen it elswhere and
wondered how it was done,how do you get the puffed up pillow
effect,does one use a plunge roundover bit,also what is the proceedure
for making the reverse or do you just take out and remount the
opposite way round,if that makes sense,thanks for all your
postings,they have been a great help, MAC.

Hi chapshope you are all well,this is basically to "aussiman"
Hi,Ive been trawling old posts and saw your starter on ribbon twists,
how did you get on, I could use any info you have learned,settings-
gears etc.also when you originally posted I thought you meant square
spirals like square lamps and such,well I been looking through the
posts and catalog,could you use Pilaster dogs to do spiraling or any
other design,then when you separate them
cut the units at a mitered angle to fit together and there you would
have a square unit,what do you think?, anyone else can chip in with
comments if they so feel,

Thank you chaps,that is the clarification I needed,I've just printed
these reply's
off so I'll put them in my ring binder and take them out to the shed
when I start again,here's a wee question, I have made a circular base
for a large candlestick,if I raise one end of the bars and rout with a
beader towards the center each time will it give me a fading runout
towards the center,like a scoop
effect,if that makes sense,I should think similar to a Rosette,what do
you think,

Cable.like the 7518.I have three routers all capable of cutting very
well with 1/2" cutters I slow them down as much as pos.to cut the
noise,(neighbors) but have to increase with the density of certain
woods,and the whine is very bad,just asking I'm not getting rid of

I have a small lathe which I use for sanding the twists and ropes

I use the sanding strips from Axminster tools.four grades to a box of

Hi Bill,is that a photo of his dad on his T/shirt,LOL.you say you side

you can reed and v/cut from the top as usual,I'm doing mods on my Revo

forward and reverse drill on the lead screw,it works a treat so long

Re: Wave Attachment

2009-08-19 Thread MACSWAG TAE

Hi Bill,wow that is some nice wavy work,and to a good depth as
well,can you give some facts like starts and pitches, also on the
large gear wheel,is that an adjustable slide there,can you post the
sises and any construction hints,I tried to make twisted pens when I
first got my REVO.
Oh boy disaster,I was using the wrong tool,I was trying to run before
I could walk,it was before I found this forum,it would have stopped me
ruining a tool,
thanks c.g. I thought that might be it,keep chippin, MAC.

Hi C.G.Why have you twisted the top of the arm that holds the end of
the long screw rod.and do you think this set up could be built onto a
REVO.thanks to you and TIM.for a great idea, MAC.

Hi TIM,and welcome back CG.Tim john magill has designed and posted
plans for an MDF.made rose engine I built one it was fairly cheap,he
also sells all the components to finish the job and at very reasonable
postal rates if you live in America that is,look in youtube under rose
engines and open John magills site,
Hi CG. I'd be very interested to see if you can make a follower that
could give fairly sharp copy in wood,after all it shows in Legacys
turntable video making
a nice round rosette so there must be scope for making Ornamental
cuts,look at some of the work on the site by Dr.Coultard.that's the
kind of work I would love to do and will with the help of my very good
supplier of cutting tools ROGER, he imports to the U/K.and is most
helpful,so just trwal the site and see,some great work,glad you're
back and Gold rich now,don't forget the boys when your buying a
round,MAC.

MISSING PART

Hi CHAPS,I really see why there is a moan about Legacy not giving two
hoots about us manual users,I have a REVO. and have been waiting for a
template follower since I bought it months ago now,I've spent well
over a thousand pounds for this unit, I added a rotary table and extra
bits,Roger, my supplier must be fed-up with me writing to him every
week asking is there any news on my missing part,so any body
considering buying read all the comments on the forum and then
decide,thank's chaps for all your very good and friendly help,MAC.
