Thread: Millers Falls Miter Box - Instruction Manual Available

  1. #16
    Since this thread isn't quite a year old yet (only 363 days since last post!) and I have found a renewed vigor for completing and restoring my old Langdon Acme, would anyone have a manual around for the mitre boxes with the slots in the bed that MF made for 40 years? This manual is for the next model after!

    This is usually my starting place for such items:

    They do have a contact option. If there is something you are seeking that isn't already on the site, they may have information as to where it can be found.

    Been there many, many times
    The one he has for download is the same one as is listed here and all over the internet now.

    I'm looking more for the manual for the model family just before that. It had different stock holding. The one I have is a 73A that is identical to the 74A from the 1940's that is pictured on his google picture page:

    I'm mostly interested in the parts list so that I can tell when mine is finally complete. The catalogs I've seen from MF skip this version of the box. There is the Acme without length stops in the 1938 catalog, and then the Acme without the stock rests (and thus no slots in the beds) in the 1949. There's a model in the middle. I am not aware of a catalog with a parts diagram between 38 and 49!
