2 forum posts	Ladies/Gents, does anyone have any drawings/manual for a 1960s Perfecto 3.5" lathe? If you do would it be at all possible if I could get a copy? This is my first lathe and some guidance on this make would help. Tks. Edited By Paul Snellings on 13/04/2010 19:21:45

The "manual" if it can be called that is an A5 booklet with a single page of instructions and 2 pages of screw cutting charts. If you let me know your email address I'll scan it and send it to you. There is a bit of information on Tony Griffith's website www.lathes.co.uk.(looks like Terry beat me to that) Mark Edited By Mark Dickinson on 13/04/2010 21:31:34

1946 forum posts 179 photos	Hi Mark, I wouldn't mind a copy of the manual if you can share it. I have a fascination for collecting such ephemera. Let me know if we can barter! I have a copy of a Harrison M300 manual which I would gladly scan and share with anyone interested, although it may take some time as I am very busy at the moment with the old multi headed dragon, work. Somewhere I also have early Boxford School CNC lathe and milling Manuals which may be of interest to anyone in the second hand market. Regards Terry
