vintagemachinery.org Amazing reference source

[Movin/on]

A member here said my Delta and Rockwell 10" Lathe manuals were not there and referenced a source for a South Bend Lathe article on "how to operate a Lathe". Downloaded it for free.

Went to the Vintage site and was flabbergasted. My manuals weren't there and contacted them for sending them a copy, they searched and said yes they'd like them. I'm also sending them a copy of my 1954 Landis Threading Machine manual. (120 pages 60 scanned images)

But if you look at the site there are 1000's of manuals and literature you will never see.

Check them out. Not an endorsement but I am sending them a donation for the preservation of info they are doing.

Been hooked on the VintageMachinery.org and OWWM.org since 2003. Great sources and sites! Good on you Richard for supporting the mothership with a donation and providing docs they don't have. Congrats on discovering 'em!

I've uploaded a few as well. They also accept catalogs which are very helpful for dating or matching up a set.
