I've tried in the past to find the aforementioned Delta publication on
the web but have been unsuccessful and Delta doesn't have it any longer
as a supported part number (even before the abysmal downturn since the
P-C debacle wherein afaict they have no support whatsoever for older
equipment online ). Delta is now off my approved vendor list
entirely, sadly.

The copy I have on hand isn't very good any longer; I'll try to scan it
and see if it is even readable. If so, I'll try to post it to the OWWM
publications section...it's valuable and I've not seen anything on the
web that really addresses these kinds of small production issues at all..

Unfortunately, that experiment failed miserably...

I _think_ there must surely be an original of it somewhere around
here--when Dad redid the old farm house here I came back out one summer
(was in VA then) and brought the small 1/2" shaper and did the kitchen
cabinets for him. *He like that little shaper so well that he bought one
after I went back home and did the rest of the bathroom vanities, a
large builtin in the living room, etc, etc, etc, ... *I'm certain that
was still being distributed at that time and he _never_ threw anything
away so maybe if I go through the last 50=yr or the 90+ yr of
accumulated stuff I'll come across the literature from that one--my
original got "borrowed" and I only have this very poor copy left...

Thanks for trying!
