The way to circumvent a PDF is to import it into a "Word"/similar product and highlight sections of text.
Then paste the text into another document. Then offer that up to "whatevertranslate".
Funny things happen to diagrams/photos so you have to treat them differently.
I do not advocate the stealing of intellectual copyright items incidentally.
Just a thought..
I have my father's copy of "The amateur's lathe" by Lawrence H Sparey, published by the Drysdale press in 1948, the year of my birth. I would commend it. It is based loosely on the Myford but describes most lathe techniques in general terms. It has guided me back on track with my SL 1000 after forty years of in the wilderness, a long time since I completed my, real, apprenticeship.

Just my 2d's worth,

James

I can't help you with the English version but the same publication was also issued in German and in Dutch (see cover page attached); there may be versions in other languages as well, I only have the German and the Dutch versions.

?

If anyone would care for the German version I'd be happy to upload my copy (just a bunch of 26 individual scans of the 52 page booklet) onto the? files section.

Does anyone have a copy of the book "Basic Technical Information and Practical Applications of the Unimat 3"?

?

I saw it in the "HobbyProducts_(NeilsCompressed).pdf" catalog from the files section, but can't find much at all about it online. It seems to have only been mentioned once in this group.

?

If anyone has a PDF I'd be grateful. Or if you have a physical copy, I'd be interested in helping you get it scanned.

?

Thanks!

Joel
