O.K. I have 124 scans of Stoner information.  74 pages out of my original manual and the rest are a Vintage Vending Stoner manual and some other copies of information that I don't know where it came from.  They are all Jpeg's.  

Any advice on how to get these out to you guys??

I believe you can download them right on to the website. Click the -downloads link and then click- other manuals and it has a link for downloading your items. Or ask Jim. biggrin

O.K. I tried to change the jpegs into pdf files and I succeded in doing so, but the files are huge and I cannot load them.  I am finished with this task.  Too many other things going on.  So here is the deal.  If anyone wants the Stoner information, p.m. me your address and I will send you out a disk.

O.K. I finally was able to copy the discs and send them out to everyone who wanted one.  I had it ready a few days back, but the snow storm got in the way.

Tom,

I'm sorry  blush , you did ask for a copy way back when on another post I made when I was going to scan these earlier.  Sorry, I forgot about you.

Jim,

Yes, you sent me an address.  Fla, correct?

Dave,

P.M. me your address.  I would be more that happy to send you out a disc.

Flippa, Yarochrech, and Sodaworks you will all get a disc.  Give me some time to copy and mail it.

Matt,

No problem.  Just remind me in April and I will get it to you.

Anyone else?  

After this next batch, I'm done.

Maybe it might be easier on Larry to submit the PDF file to the site and let everyone download it?

Jim was going to take the scans and put them on the site.  The scans on the disc are jpegs.  I used photo shop to open a few of the jpegs and then saved them as pdfs but the files were huge, so I aborted that.  So the files on the disc are only jpegs!!  I am not computer savy so Jim was going to look into converting them. 

As of now, I have ten more request for discs.  I'll hold off on making them and sending them out until Jim gets his disc and sees if he can convert them easily to pdfs and load them on the site.  If he can't, I'll whip out another ten discs and mail them to the rest of you guys.  Until then, I'm going to wait and see what happens before I make more disc and send them out.

Larry,
I am absolutely in no rush.
I'd be happy to make a PDF file of the manual, but I would need the actual manual as I do not know how to convert multiple Jpg images into one PDF file.
If Jim can do it without too much trouble, I can wait on him.
Thanks again!

Larry,
If you have Photoshop, you can save the file in the following way to make it smaller:

Open File to be resized.
Resize the image: Click 'Image' at the top, and then "Image Size", change the pixels dropdown to percent in the width column, then change it from 100  to either 33 or 25.
Save for web: Click 'File', then 'Save for Web or Devices'.  This brings up a new screen, you can adjust the Quality section and see the image size at the bottom left of the image.  Then click save at the bottom.

I use this all the time to get images under 100K for the site here, its really handy, and you maintain a good size and quality of image.  When you do an image scan, it typically creates a really large JPEG file, to maintain as much image detail as possible.

Just sent the files to Tkaz.  He's going to see what he can do with it.  Hopefully, he can change them all in one quick sweep and then you guys can load them at your leisure.

Ok, the first manual (74 pages, 5.6MB) has been uploaded to the Downloads section, under Misc. Manuals.  

It doesn't look like it is showing up right now?  Does it need to be approved by an Admin?

If you need a copy now, PM an email address, and I'll send it.

Login to the soda-machines.com homepage, and on the bottom left bar you will see the downloads section.  The main page is separate from the forum.  If you're having trouble I can just email them to you.

Thanks Tkaz, but I must not have authorization to log in there. I tried and i will not let me log in. If it is not a problem, could you e-mail them to me. I would really appreciate it. My address is coreybeckham@hotmail.com. I'll be glad to pay you for them.

If you pay him, that would defeat the whole purpose of getting the scans on the site.  It's free. oh

I just finished sending Tom the rest of the Stoner info that I have and he will post it soon.

There's one other manual that should be up in the download sections soon, with additional info including the service tag, patent info, and a few other pages. 

Big thanks to Larry on all this, over 120 manual scans of each page, much more work than I put into it.

The final Stoner candy machine information that I have, has been loaded in the "Downloads" under "Misc manuals" and listed as "Stoner Miscellaneous info."  There is a tag that shows how to adjust the machine for different prices.  More useful information about loading and it also has the patent information.  I find this download more useful than the manual scans.
