You may beat curt to making his spiral telegraph pole looks good Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com [mailto:legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com] Sent: Friday, 30 January 2015 7:51 AM To: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: enlarging turning capacity of a legacy another update...minor as it might be...these small updates will give a look into the process involved to get this mod done...first photo shows a piece of plywood that would represent the maximum diameter that would fit into the modified legacy...whether it be a center pedestal to a table base or perhaps a faceplate turning...the plywood is 19 3/8" in diameter...the bed rails in this photo are not at the center line of the plywood, as they normally would be...this is just a mock up for now...the second photo is generally the same as the first, but shown is a cardboard template of what a gusset would look like, if i decide they are necessary...i am leaning towards making them, regardless...they would bolt in place while assembling the machine and not interfere with any other assembly procedure or hinder access to any screws...should do an excellent job of helping keep the vertical supports 90 degrees to the frame...only four brackets(2 per center cross brace) are needed, as the bed risers are adequate for the ends of the machine...all straight cuts(no curves!) so fabrication is a snap...in the second photo you can see i lowered the bed rail on the left to the approximate center point( i simply flipped the bed rail support bracket, so it is upside down...thought i would mention it before mac did!...LOL!)...i have not yet milled the slot longer...that will be done later, all together, after all remaining supports are cut and welded...spending limited time,daily, on this project, so progress is slow but steady...thanks...joe -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Legacy Ornamental Mills" group.
