Manuals manuals manuals

[timsmore]

The HUGE, approx 1000 page, manual has been picked apart and this is what I have.  Individaul sections and information include the following.  I found the in depth information on the theory of refrigeration unique for sure.  Pictures, diagrams, schematics it's all there.  If what I have is close to something you need let me know and I will double check that I didn't miss something.  As questions are asked I will edit this section below so that becomes more and more clear as to the contents of the manual.

I will be scanning each section and then as each of you determine the section that you may need, confirm with me and I will be able to get it to you as either a .pdf or put on a CD and mail to you.  Let me know how large a file you ISP will allow and if fits I will email it.  ALready some of the sections are pushing 9 megs

What is exactly the info on Cavalier coolers # 6?

[timsmore]

I will swing by my office tomorrow and bring the Big Book home along with my scanner.  I know alot of you had shown interest in purchasing sections or specific machines so I'm going to get each section scanned as a .pdf.  Already some sections come to about 8 megs. and about 100 pages.

[Creighton]

Tim,
Really appreciate the effort you have put into this!! I'll take 1 copy of all.
Please PM the price.
Thanks!!
Creighton

[timsmore]

I updated what machines are covered.

[Jim]

This listing has the same info/models as one of my original manuals.

Tim,

What resolution are you scanning at...?

[timsmore]

10 chapters have been scanned.  Curled, wavey paper from being in the protectors have slowed me but hopefully this week all will be scanned as individual chapters and in .pdf format.  

[collecture]

Tim,
Wow, that is a lot of work. I would be happy with sections 7, 8 & 11. I think I have the rest. Please PM me a price.

[MoonDawg]

I'd like to purchase #2------#8-------and  #11

[sodaworks]

I'm interested in 2,5,8,11. '>

[timsmore]

Done through 13!!!  I will make sure I complete tomorrow while I'm at work.  I think I will qualify as an Army Print NCO after this. (No that is not an actual job)   '>

[Pat Pixley]

Tim, please putme down for  1,2,6&10 and on cd would work for me.
I will p.m. with my address and please let me know what I will
 owe you.
 Thanks

What type of scanner are you using?

I know that there is a face-up book scanner on the market that will
scan pages and evens out any page scanned. (EX curved page shows it flat)
Beats the heck out of a desktop computer scanner.

I think Minolta has some. Ebay has them all the time. Not a large selection
but a few.

My states Archive and History uses one for research projects.

[timsmore]

Here in my office I have HP 9100C Digital Sender.  It will even do color.  I've been told the cost is around $4,000.  Yes, I would like to thank the tax payers, which includes me for this awesome machine. '>

[timsmore]

Just a quick update to show the stack now that I have finished the last section.  I will now organize and repost what is in each of the criss cross stacks.  This is how I scanned it into the individual .pdf files.   '>

[loman4ec]

WHen this is all done what do you want for a copy of them.

[timsmore]

Scanning of the MANUSCRIPT is complete!!!  

1289 pages total.  It will be $10.00 a section.  This way you don't have to get what you may not need.  I'm just hoping to get close to the $175.00 I have in so my wife won't kill me. (I don't own any of these machines)  If you have already sent a check let me know what it is you would like sent.  Most internet providers now I believe will let up to 10 megs to be sent.  The complete manual came to just about 80 megs.  I have no problem putting any of these or all on a CD and mailing at no extra charge.  Let me know and I will have them coiming through the internet or to a mailbox ASAP.  Money orders or checks but will have to wait until they clear.  I hope this helps a lot of you out and maybe, just maybe, someday I will own one of these classic machines!

Tim,
$130.00 for the whole thing correct? Let me know and funds are on the way.
Thanks for all the work!!
Creighton

[loman4ec]

If someone wanted a copy of each would you discount? I am sure some of those sections are rather small, and I really don't need them all but if you are sending some you might as well send them all. Do you take paypal?

[collecture]

Tim,
Received the CD today. It is awesome!!'>
Thanks a ton...you are the man!

[sodaworks]

Hello Tim,
 Just wondering if you recieved my M.O. for the disc?
Thanks Terry@Sodaworks '>

[Jim]

Thanks Tim!
Received the CD the other day...

[Kevin C]

Tim

Let me recheck your listing because I ordered off the first listing.

Kevin

Hey how is your CV project coming?

[sodaworks]

Hello Tim,
Just wondering if you recieved my M.O. for the disc?
Thanks Terry@Sodaworks

[sodaworks]

For whatever reason I never did recieve the manuals from Tim.
Lucky for me Creighton sent me a set of copies. Creighton thank you very much!! It's really nice that other members here help each other out. When your ready for your bottle door to be painted just send it to me.... '>

[Creighton]

Terry,
Just glad to help!! Have a recommended machine shop to punch the center. Will get it to you ASAP.
Thanks!
Creighton

[Pat Pixley]

I too would like to thank Creighton for sending a  copy of
of his CD  to me .
  Some reason I never got the copy from TIM and he only got back to me once, and that was the last I heard from him ...
 
 SO thank you Creighton for helping us out.

  Talk to you later
   Pat    '>

[Jim]

Hello all,

Things have been a little busy around my house the last month...
With that said, I have to apologize for not being around as much as I would have liked... I will be uploading some sample documents up to the Soda Jerk Section over the next week in the hopes of making information available. As we move forward with this, I would like feedback on organization of materials, errors I've made or any other input to aid in making this easy to navigate and acquire the information...
Thanks

I was thinking that there could be one pinned topic that had a list (with links) of the different manuals and other items arranged by manufacturer.  As people put items up on their accounts, or have to remove them, they could reply to the pinned message.  An Administrator changes the information in the pinned message and deletes the reply.  This way we don't have a message that is 10 pages long! (I guess I'm volunteering for this)

Is the plan still to try to get members to store the manuals wherever they have some space so it is not hogging the available space at SMC? '>

[BryanH]

Well if you want... I went through all Tim's PDF's and removed duplicate pages, resorted pages that were out of order and combined/split files to keep pages from a machine being split across files.  I don't have room to post them anywhere but would be happy to share them to save other '> <anal> '>  members from having to do the same effort.

I also gave Tim a list of pages missing...  If he gets those rescanned (I think he's in the middle of moving) I'll integrate them into the docs also.

[bubba]

If storage is an issue, I can make an ftp site available to upload and store manuals and other info... I have 2 sites for my company that are just small websites, with huge storage. Bandwidth wouldn't be an issue either. I can setup a ftp account to upload, and I can password the directory so its only available to who you want to give access to. I don't know if I can set individual accounts though--- Its not a ftp server, just a webhost. I do plan some day soon to get my ftp server back online also.

[dr galaga]

That's nice of you Ken.   I'm sure some of the gang will take you up on the offer.  I was looking around and came across Yahoo's Briefcase.  It offers up to 30MB of storage. Looks like we may not need this now, but just wondering if anyone has used it before.

[Creighton]

I have a storage space if need be. The problem I see, is unless there is backup somewhere the information could be lost, broken links etc... Say I have manual A on server B and reconfigure/shutdown server B. Manual A is gone.

I would be more than happy to contribute funds to increase storage space here on SMC. We could also run a mirror site so that the "eggs are not in one basket".

I am new to this site, so bare with me if i mess up. 

I was given a square top Vendo 56 many years ago and it is in presteen codniton... absolutely no rust.

I am goignt completly restore the machine to factory level, or as clsoe to it as possible.

I was wondering if you might have all the service and other documentation for this machine availabel because i have only seen the round top manals on line.

Please let e know

Thanks so much

[Creighton]

Welcome to the site! Tim's set of doc's did not include ST's. Check with the sponsors of the site. They might have one.
Yikes, a 7 yr old thread. I do still have plenty of storage space :-)
Creighton

[burnt mind]

Thanks so much......that is the problme.....everythgiin is for the round top that i ahev found..

[Creighton]

ST's are fixable without much fuss. Read through the posts in the "Post 60's Machine" section.
Any questions just ask.
Creighton

[Creighton]

Tim be long gone from the board. I have no idea where my CD's may be. Tom may still have copies. They were not all that great to start with.
This thread is very old. Response will be limited.
