So your woodchuck split nut is not what was shown in my carriage pictures? Is that what I'm reading? Can you show us a photo? On Wednesday, August 2, 2017 at 10:44:28 PM UTC-7, Richard Ellis wrote: > > Hi > Interesting about the split nut. on my Woodchuck it is hinged, the lower > half in not

Re: need help in identifying a 1500 (?)

Hi Interesting about the split nut. on my Woodchuck it is hinged, the lower half in not threaded ,just bare,just there to carry the leadscrew. On the Revo ,shorter bed and leadscrew the nut is just a half that slides to closed position, no back piece . I like the idea of a sliding nut for the

tim, there are no wing nuts,,,there is a single, socket head, allen key bolt holding the solid acme nut to the carriage -Original Message- From: Tim Krause To: Legacy Ornamental Mills Cc: Legacy Ornamental Mills

Re: need help in identifying a 1500 (?)

well, that explains why the nut on my machine is not split...I would be curious as to why legacy would offer it as an option when it is such a minor upgrade...include it with every machine and just up the price a few dollars...and you have also explained the different types of split nuts used

Re: need help in identifying a 1500 (?)

Joe, Do you have two wing nuts that connect the router base to your solid acme nut on the y axis?  That also appears to be another method to allow the axis to float with the solid nut version. ⁣Sent from BlueMail ​ On Aug 2, 2017, 2:16 PM, at 2:16 PM, 'joe biunno' via Legacy Ornamental Mills

Re: need help in identifying a 1500 (?)

New details, The model 1000 the y axis leadscrew was an option.  It came without a split nut.  It was a block of delrin tapped for the acme thread.  If you wanted to move the y axis freely you would remove one screws and that would set it free.  The split nut was yet another option that made

Re: need help in identifying a 1500 (?)

This is driving me a little nutty, The split nut that you show photographed was on the early model 1000/1500 machines. I've now seen this in a Legacy video. When and how they went to the modern split nut escapes me. I don't know if it was an upgrade option or simply a newer model 1000/1500

Re: need help in identifying a 1500 (?)

wow tim!...incredible photos and many thanks...here is some additional info that is now better explained, thanks to you...I do not have the "L" shaped, nylon blocks on the underside of the Y carriage, as I now see in your photos...they were replaced by a previous owner with an oak wood and ball

Re: need help in identifying a 1500 (?)

They where uhmw, and they have slotted mounting holes in the carriage. Also notice that there is no mechanism to keep the carriage held to the rails. It just lifts up. That's all I know about this subject. -Tim PS, Credit to Mike Pung for allowing me to take photos of his carriage. On

Re: need help in identifying a 1500 (?)

Confused, that looks like a split nut like a Woodchuck version... -Tim On 8/1/2017 5:44 AM, 'joe biunno' via Legacy Ornamental Mills wrote: here is a photo of the split nut used on the lead screw...a bit odd as it hinges open and closed...certainly very difficult to replace when it becomes

Joe, Can you take a photo of the torn up split nut. I'm curious about something. -Tim On 8/1/2017 7:50 AM, 'joe biunno' via Legacy Ornamental Mills wrote: well, the legacy gods smiled upon me today!...that hinged, split nut was a mess...the bracket was poorly made by a previous owner and
