I have spent this entire day looking for a book, owners manual, or what ever you want to call it on this internet with no luck. I don't know if I'm looking in the wrong places or what. Please help. It is for a Warner & Swasey Turret Lathe 1-A M-470. The only date I can find on it is the last rebuild date of 11-28-63 so I have no idea how old the thing is. If any of you know someone with this same lathe, please ask if they would sell me a copy of the book to it. A few of you have already told me where to look and I did. I was still unable to find the damn book even where you told me to look. Any way I give up,,,,HELP PLEASE !!!,,,,,,Thanks ,,,,Chuck H. This was read by my wife to see if I said anything wrong, but I'm not real sure she done a good job of it, as she had a hard day and she found my "bootleg" ya see.At $150.00 a gallon, it is the true "kill ya or cure ya drink",,,,lmao,,,,,everyone have a great weekend and make it a safe one too,,,, Chuck H. Sugar Tit South Carolina where the main attraction is BMW, you know , that's where our Bubba Makes Wheels at,,,,,,lol Chuck, I suggest you might want to repost to the newsgroup rec.crafts.metalworking they might be able to help. Good luck. Ive got a copy of "Warner & Swasey Turret Lathe Tools", Catalog No. 70A, 1970. I have another turret lathe book, may be the operators manual for a WS, but cant locate it at the moment. Its not for sale, but I might scan the entire book and do a PDF of it. Full of setup pics, tooling pics and applications, etc etc. I have another turret lathe book, may be the operators manual for a WS, but cant locate it at the moment. BTW..if anyone wants a VERY nice and tooled WS #4, there is one in Santa Ana California for $300, includes multiple 3 and 4 jaw chucks, a very large set of collets, air collet closer, the works. This will turn up to around 18" IIRC. $500 gets the #4 and a very nice Herbert turret lathe, set up for 5C collets and in very good condition, ready to make parts. Full turret, cross and longitudal feed, threading etc etc A very versitile lathe The same shop has a decent Clausing 1500 lathe, 15" swing, 48" between centers, KDK, 3 & 4 jaw chucks, 5C lever collet closer etc $2500 OBO Gunner "What do you call someone in possesion of all the facts?
