RE: need help in identifying a 1500 (?)

This does look legacy and should mesh if it is legacy try it with one of the known legacy gears and see if it does mesh ok. place them both on 6 blocks all the same 3 on each gear flat on a table push then together and rotate they will either be right or totally wrong That’s to my way of

RE: need help in identifying a 1500 (?)

I do not believe that is legacy i have never seen anything like it and it looks too roughly made to be genuine and of course it’s not red Bill From: 'joe biunno' via Legacy Ornamental Mills [mailto:legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com] Sent: Tuesday, 1 August 2017 5:43 AM To: Legacy

Hi Joe, Yes that is a model 1500 in theory.  Essentially a model 1500 is the same as a model 1000 except for it came with all the options.  It was built pre 1998.  The gears that you are seeing are the same as all of the modern aluminum rail model 1000.  They are fine pitch so the main gear of

Re: early Legacy CNC unit on E-bay.

Roger I do know I am a complete CNC (complete nut case ) but a Legacy cnc in non caps is a no no no for me in any shape or form. Who to, and where in the U.K. could I sell anything it produces?? Having it as a toy, would be a waste of time on the computer as that is what the two Legacy's that
