Got 2 or 3 of them myself. Give me a few days, I'll scan the instructions and send you a .pdf; have to figure out the scan function of my newish printer. Report
February 13, 20242 yr Popular Post comment_329854 I went back to look for a couple of small pieces and found a nice 'handbook of circular saw blades and power tool accessories' printed by Craftsman dated 1971. Report

Looked at obvious places where I might have re-stashed them...not any of those places...next less likely places...nope; start over from the beginning...nope, nope, nope. I have one other seemingly logical place where I probably stored them, but it will be a few days before I can get there. Need to move some stuff out of the garage for a safe path to that cabinet...8" of snow today hinders that operation. Sad thing is, I don't ever remember moving them from the original location let alone when or why. I'll find them eventually. Report

February 17, 20242 yr Popular Post comment_330094 My old Craftsman router uses a 13/16", stamped-steel collet wrench, the type that comes with such tools. Whenever I use it, it goes back into the plastic bit case and into the lower left drawer on the router table. In early January I had to make some adjustments, so I opened the drawer, took out the bit case, opened it and... NO WRENCH! I spent much of the next month searching every nook and cranny, some several times, for that *#%^ hunk of steel. Finally found a wrench that fit, and gave up on the original. A few days later I needed a whetstone. Opened the sharpening drawer, pulled out the box of whetstones, and there was the prodigal wrench! Since I'm the only person who ever goes into the workshop, I can only conclude that SOMEONE broke into the house one night, moved that wrench, and locked the door on his way out, taking nothing with him!
