While posting a link of a pdf of Wayne Moore's "Foundations of mechanical accuracy" in another thread,
I realized that this audiophile company & lab (not to be confused with Pearl Mikes) had a treasure trove of pdf:s:
Books, brochures, Hardinge HLV, Monarch 10EEs manual scans and parts lists, a little like vintagemachinery.org has:

Enjoy!

Bookmarked!

Which should remind me to get home to post pics and the serials of some of my machines. vintagemachinery.org has records not found elsewhere, especially defunct manufacturers.

I started to save the link in my favorites and... surprise! I already have a link to the parent directory

. There are woodworking tools, electronics, audio, etc.

Regardless, thank you for the link.

Again....BOOKMARKED! Haven't read it yet, but examined its content table thoroughly. Such a variety of machine tool architecture, I found myself visualizing each one of the 70 sections, by a machine tool I've run or at least seen enough to be familiar. Some were difficult, maybe I got A- grade.
A little staggering; to think how much planning and engineering a single machine gets. More so, with a brands reputation on the line every time.
