Just got off the phone with an old 'Bolter named Jerry, and if HRL says he taint got it
or doesn't know where to find it, it probably don't exist.
But just in case there's another old tool collector here on the 'Bolt who might have one
or might have a dad or father in law or brother in law or whoever......please, let me know.
What 'it' is that I'm lookin' for? Well, it's a manual for a Barrett B500 Drum Doktor brake drum lathe.
Apparently all the techs in all the shops that had these back in the day, took the manuals home and
the wife threw them out with the garbage.
I picked this one up last weekend and plan on a restoration, but before I tear into it, I'd sure like to
have a parts breakdown that shows the inner workings and some of the tooling.
So....thanks in advance, I just know that one of you 41,343 members has a manual with that
old drum lathe that''s sitting off in the corner of the shop.
