I recently bought another D-W mill (sold the previous one some time back). There are notable differences between this one and the previous and while it came with the build instructions, there are no drawings. I understand that the Yahoo D-W group do have drawings and I've joined, but not able to access the files. Can anyone explain how one accesses the Yahoo files or has copies of the drawings, please?

If you live in Cornwall I have the drawings for a D-W as built in the 70s

Bill,

Provided that you are signed-in at the time; there should be a button for 'Files'

Select that first, and then you should be able to search within that folder.

Thank you Dave but, no, born and bred but non-resident for many a year.

Michael - that's what I would have expected but putting the mouse over the 'files' button generates a 'No-Entry' sign ... as it does for all buttons except 'Conversations'. I'm probably doing something stupid but not familiar with Yahoo, so don't know whatblush

Are you sure that you're signed-in ?

Bill if you've only just joined the DW group it may be that your membership has not yet been approved, I seem to remember that it was a few days delay when I joined. I can confirm that there are a load of files in that section so worth hanging on for, but can't guarantee that the info that you're after is there.

Many Yahoo groups initially put new members on moderated posting status and don't give full membership until you have made an on topic post. Last line of defence against spammers. Some spammer attempts are amusing, most pathetic.

That would seem the most likely

Michael - thank you, yes, it appears to indicate so - flags up my name etc..

Keith - thank you - that sounds probable; only joined yesterday so that could well be the problem.
