Re: Rotary Table Height

2017-08-10 Thread Richard Ellis 
Tim The Rotary table is 13 1/2 " dia. The brackets that fix to the top and 
bottom rails are the same size and shape as the small table brackets.
I do think it will fit my Woodchuck , just need to make some extra 
braclets, if I did fit it the depth of plunge would be much more when 
routing out goblets or such.

When using the rotary table for the very first time, the handle came loose, it 
just did not rotate the table, it seemed as if it was only half on. so tried to 
move it nearer to the table-it would not.

Tried to remove it to find out the problem, it was quite difficult to get off 
owing to the burs on the round shaft. Why no flat for the grub screw to clamp 
on.?

Next---, went to fit the Universal joint to the spindle drive. did not go on 
far enough-- the round part of the drive had score marks because of the 
fact that the recess in the Uni joint was not deep enough.I then checked the 
main rod of the Uni joint. Have Legacy never heard of a milling machine and the 
fact that one should not grub screw to round shafts.

As you say it is a great little machine but it seems I am spending far too much 
putting Legacy's shoddy workmanship to rights.

It seems to me over the years they are in too much of a hurry to bring out a 
new model, instead of making the first one properly.

Hence feeling a bit peed off at the moment.

I did not want to alter the Revo, as Martin was promised it back if I decided

Planing MDF is not a healthy thing to do unless well ventilated. I have been

Re: Rotary Table Height

2017-08-09 Thread Bawdsey64 
​Hi Richard
Engineering standards vary around the world, FACT!

I have found very few American engineers/companies using Lock Washers when 
compared to how we do it in UK. When I was running a production line building 
Small Boat Radar Systems for Raytheon in the UK did I complain about lack of 
washers given the application environment. No I just bought in some spring 
washers. When I ran the production line, again for Raytheon, building power 
supplies for the Customs Computer System at London Airport we found differences 
in engineering standards etc. Did we bitch and moan, no just the stiff British 
upper lip and we got on with it and did it our way.

I will defend Legacy because they came up with the original machine idea, 
developed it over the years and sold plenty of them to lots of happy 
woodworkers. But in life some people think they can improve other peoples 
designs, I have no problem with that but someone has to come up with the 
original ideas and as we all know that is the hard part.   We have seen in this 
group plenty of modifications that have improved on the original design.  That 
is evolution.

By the way I am not claiming that the Legacy machine was the original concept 
of this type of machine because the Sears Router Lathe uses similar principals 
and sold well I believe in the USA.  It was sold in UK by Trend. Strangely 
enough although Trend sold a lot over here most of them were bought, played 
with for a couple of times and then put up on the shelf in the shed and 
forgotten and this I know for a fact having had it confirmed by Trend.  I do 
not believe that has been the case with Legacy machines and is probably the 
reason they retain their selling price.

Cheers
Roger

I do blame legacy whatever they sold it for to fit, is no excuse for extremely 
bad engineering..I am just a lowly person with no degrees or scholarships, but 
I do know a little about machines lathes saws etc.etc.  having made a living 
from them.
I know everything  is made to a price, and for what they charge for the rotary 
table it should have been made better -just a simple thing to mill flats 
onto spindles

When using the rotary table for the very first time, the handle came loose, it 
just did not rotate the table, it seemed as if it was only half on. so tried to

As you say it is a great little machine but it seems I am spending far too much

It seems to me over the years they are in too much of a hurry to bring out a

Re: Rotary Table Height

2017-08-09 Thread 'joe biunno' via Legacy Ornamental Mills 
bill, I was going to respond and say almost exactly what you said, but you 
said it all very well...thanks...let's also remember that there is no 
machine on the market, past or present, that is like a legacy...other than 
a computer, cnc setup, which not many of us can afford...and what would a 
perfectly, tweaked out machine retail for?...and then we would be 
complaining about that...I have no issues with the fact that andy and his 
team made improvements while producing and selling their machines...cars 
get better, cell phones get better and you almost say everything gets 
better as it gets re-engineered...now, legacy deciding to not back-up their 
original equipment with parts, THAT! is a serious complaint and worth 
dragging them to the whipping post...LOL!...but some of this other stuff 
seems a bit small...fix it, take a photo of how you fixed it, post it and 
move on to the next mod/improvement...just my opinion and no disrespect to 
anyone in this group...thanks...joe b.

RE: Rotary Table Height

2017-08-09 Thread Bill Bulkeley 
I agree all the legacy mills have their faults that need correcting but once 
you do you have very useful machines on your hands.

That universal joint I believe was sold for the other models not the revo I had 
to make my own from a 3/8 drive socket set parts for my mills. The way I look 
at it if the mills were all well machined and all slick they would be much more 
expensive to buy in the first place and out of reach of most hobby woodworkers 
like their cnc mills are now.

I don’t blame the dog breeder because his dog he sold me won’t do any tricks 
and craps all over my carpet you have to train it your self

and in the end, end up with a great animal. Hang in there buddy fix up the 
mills design faults and like a diamond in the rough end up in my opinion with a 
great little jewel of a machine.

,the waste board, it's 3/4 " thick and appears to have been glued on. I can not

If I put a thinner waste board I could gain another half inch.

Is there another way of lowering the table ?

a new model, instead of making the first one properly.
Hence feeling a bit peed off at the moment.

I did not want to alter the Revo, as Martin was promised it back if I decided 
to sell it.

Planing MDF is not a healthy thing to do unless well ventilated. I have been 
Routing a lot of Plywood and it upset me rather badly, a sore place on my face 
and a retching session, have just come back from the Doctor. Even though I was 
wearing a mask the air was polluted for a long long time

Am now thinking of selling the Revo and all the bits that came with it. as 
Martin does not now want it back..

Why not plane the board that is on the rotary table down to your required 
thickness?

Just a suggestion.

Today I fitted my Rotary Table to the Revo. It does not seem to have much 
height for hollowing out bowls  only 21/4 "--- The other thing I have found 
,the waste board, it's 3/4 " thick and appears to have been glued on. I can not 
see any woodscrews  holding it,,. Is that normal ?

If I put a thinner waste board I could gain another half inch.

Is there another way of lowering the table ?

Cheers 

Richard
