    Alcan manual

    I would like to get a Alcan manual. I have found one online but I have an older computer and I can't get it to download.
    Any ideas that would help?

    There is no problem so great, that it cannot be solved by the proper application of high explosives.

    Post the link. Maybe someone here can download and send to your email. I would try if you send the link.

    I will see if I can do that. I can't figure it out. I can access the data and print what I need. The recaptcha does not work with my computer.

    I've got what I believe is #11 in PDF that with luck I could forward to you via email. I got it from someone here earlier this year.

    There's some cool old information in the old manuals.

    And if the one you found is on, I believe, CastPics, that website has some issues, I tried to download the Alcan manual from there with no luck.

    That would be great. I really appreciate it. My email is swamp@ecentral.con.

    There is no difference between communism and socialism, except in the means of achieving the same ultimate end: communism proposes to enslave men by force, socialism—by vote. It is merely the difference between murder and suicide. Ayn Rand

    I made a mistake in my address: swamp@ecentral.com is correct.

    That is the site that I had trouble with. The captcha will not work with my computer.

    whizzing it's way across Mr. Gore's greatest invention.

    I hope.

    I agree about the high explosives, one of the great disappointments in my life is we ran out of stumps to blow up and I wasn't old enough for my dad to teach me how to handle dynamite.

    What was left of the dynamite was plowed under when it started oozing. Don't know what happened to the caps and the cord.

    Dad had an awl just for opening up the end of a stick to insert the cap and a "dynamite auger", a 2" specially made auger bit that was 4-5' long with a wood "T" handle on it just like a post hole digger.

    Bore an angled hole under the stump, shove the dynamite down and KABOOM

    Ah, for the good ole' days

    I used to juggle the dynamite. Great fun. Awesome memories.
