In 1984 whilst refurbishing a round-bed Drummond lathe, I wrotre to Professor D.H. Chaddock, who was then the Model Engineer magazine guru for Drummon affairs.

He sent me poor (good in their day) photocopies of three little Drummonf booklets, together with a letter giving his opinion of the date of my lathe.

Does anyone want these few bits?

Drat !! … I was on the microscopy forum.

Any chance of a scan, please, Robbo ?

I too would like a scan of the papers if you have the time.

Thanks,

Are these any different than those already available (as pdf) on the net?

Years ago, Chronos used to sell reprints of Drummond Operator manuals.

If you ask nicely, someone may have a copy that you could have.

That letter is unlikely to be available elsewhere.

Merlin will be sending the Drummond papers, so we will see when they arrive. In slow time probably as my "Dicky Ticker" is playing up just now.
