The New Departure Handbook is a keeper. That looks to be volume 1 with dimension and load ratings. There is a volume 2 also. I worked for ND for 32 years here in Bristol Ct. They closed the doors January 21, 1995.

It's to bad that offer has expired, I'd buy 2 of those roller cabinet and possibly 3 at those prices...!
 
That green covered book "Electric Motor Repair" by Robert Rosenberg is a keeper, a bit dated but nice to have if you do any work on older motors.

Long story short, Sandusky, Ohio is still operating, but the Bearing lines are shut down. They make Spindles now. Our machines were transferred there in 93, We made the Spindles here till we shut down in 95. That is when ND went out of the Bearing Business. I second that "sigh", In it's hay day you couldn't get a better bearing. GM held the patent on the finish of the balls. It was a well kept secret for many years.

Re: Burke Machinery Catalog

Latest to see the scanner, maybe 1980.
I'm not sure if I should cut it in half and scan the pages or not.
Just don't have the time to flatbed scan it, separate pages I can send through the ADF and be done with it. quite a number of pages in this catalog.

Post #17 didn't come out the way I wanted it to show up, a tad late night last night. So here's a Take II as I was trying to word it:

Any Burke Owners around here? Latest scan is a Burke Machinery Catalog, does anyone need to see any detail out of it.
I was thinking of slicing it down the spine to be able to scan it quicker (page size) instead of trying to manually handling it or trying to deal with 11x17 pages
and then ordering them.
Need to check if there is any interest.

Dan,
I'd be interested in the Burke catalog and was also wondering if you had plans to scan the SB how to run a shaper book. That would come in handy now that my shaper is in the process of going back together.
