McPherson's Hercus lathe booklet
Hi All
i came across this little booklet amongst some other paperwork that I picked up with a lathe. It is nothing exciting just a bit of a nostalgic thing that I thought I would share.
Cheers
Steve

Thanks for this piece of nostalgia Steve. I particularly enjoyed their 'hints' page! A lot of effort to sell / promote their lathes.

Nice one, Steve.
I think the illustration and labels of principal parts of a Hercus 9A is original, that is not a Hercus official drawing - nicely done, useful for learners.
I've combined your scans into a single PDF file, under 2MB size.

Thanks Jordan, I was trying to work out how to do that to make it easier to put it all together, I am not very computer savvy at all.
