Hi Tim, 

My name is Jim Duncanson and I'm from Burleson, Texas. I'm a retiree (68 years 
old); I purchased my 1200 in 2004. Along with the 1200 I purchased several of 
the VHS tapes teaching various projects such as the candlestick. I have a small 
(about 400 sq. ft.) shop with lots of toys. Initially, I had intended to learn 
furniture making when I retired. Getting sick stopped the move to a bigger 
building and forced me to adapt to having the shop in my garage. It's a little 
crowded but the commute is great. I have all the usual suspects; mini lathe, 
table saw, vertical band saw, panel sander, jointer, planer and of course the 
legacy ornamental mill. While I am no longer able to do furniture due to 
limitations, I am trying to learn and make lots of other things. So far I have 
made band saw boxes, cutting boards and small wooden games for the family, and 
with some help from my oldest son this year I was able to build a cradle for 
his first grand daughter.

 

Shortly after I assembled the Legacy, I suffered a major illness with long 
lasting issues that prevented me from playing with it. It currently is sitting 
covered with dust in my shop and I'm getting ready to pull it out of the corner 
and rehab it. More than anything, I would like to find a copy of the machine 
and project instructions both written and electronic media. Mine were on VHS 
and were mistakenly gotten rid of when the VHS player died and we replaced it 
with a DVD. If there are any members that have that information in DVD format, 
I would love to purchase it or a copy of it. I have been more than a little 
saddened that Legacy doesn't support their products any longer.

 

Best regards, Jim

Re: Today's Legacy project

2018-11-21 Thread 'Curt George' via Legacy Ornamental Mills 
 Thanks Mike !  I'm going to write up a step by step picture galore for the LOM 
group.Hopefully someone out there might have some ideas on how to make this 
differently? I would like to learn as much as I can on this topic.  I don't 
know how many more bone turnings that I will do, but I do guarantee I will be 
trying this again soon.

glued up I put the bones on the Legacy and made a nice bone spindle, (all ready

  I was using a pen mandrel to hold the spindle in/on the Legacy, This is where

cuts I made before the slip up happened were light cuts,  I was able to put the

  Over-all I like it,   This will by my first Christmas present that I will

  I don't know if I will get another chance to work with bone again for a

the Legacy cuts it very nicely, as long as you use light cuts and use a slow
