Using Firefox, the right hand column is 'behind' the list of forum posts on the right side of the screen.

The pdf downloads fine

There is also a slightly posher version of this using a cast iron chuck backplate with milled dovetail slide. . I've seen a couple on ebay over the years. I have one which works ok though the heavy slide means it gets a bit unbalanced so a cunning builder might make one with counter moving tool blocks.

The original article was published in 1960, not 2014.
