[Frank S]

Ever since you posted your dilemma of how you were going to get anchor studs in the correct placement I started doing research for what I thought your machine might be until I finally found that video I posted figuring it just might be similar to yours knowing your association older machines and your appreciation for machine fit I deduced that it had to be either the one I thought it was or a Pratt& Whitney which may be one in the same since I have no true comparison But then I thought of Cincinnati or Hauser machines no matter what name I searched for if I entered 4 b all that would come up was Devliag and you still have not confirmed if that is indeed the branded make Then I tried searching for any possible decommissioned department of the Navy machines THen I came up with a 3b that was Army which was also a devlaig. I tried searching for user manuals build specs historical purchase documents and several other avenues a few lead me to pay sites. No interest in digging into those still other searches lead to possible manuals for sale didn't want to buy something just wanted to have a look see.
I still couldn't locate a site that I had used in the past that boosts over 7 million manuals for download some are pay as I remember Tried the UK Machines got a head ache trying to follow that rabbit hole kept getting side tracked
finally I decided to look to myself to see what I would or have done for similar situations .
That was the easiest search of all since I am not the sharpest tack in the box it took a while for it to dawn on me that hey dummy you've done the exact same thing numerous times on many things just square up a grid then work in instead of out.
