I was digging through some stuff this morning and came across the paperwork from when my Dad bought the SawSmith that I still have and use. I thought I would scan the docs I found for a few reasons:
1. Paper documents tend to deteriorate over time.
2. I tend to mis-file/mis-fling paper documents.
3. I'm spoiled with my electronic filing system.
This link will take you to a web page I created to store the docs. All of the documents are PDF files......
The non-SawSmith enthusiasts might also like to see the Spring/Summer 1960 prices in the "SawSmith Accessories" flyer.

Great job on the scanning! I've downloaded a few of those documents from other sources, but your scans are MUCH cleaner. And I've never seen that sales flyer.
However, there are a couple of pages in the Owner's Manual that are messed up (pages 4 and 6 look like they were moved in the process of being scanned, and page 7 is turned so much part of the text is outside the scanned area). A few other pages here and there are a bit askew, but still the quality is much better than what has been available so far.
I hope you don't mind, but I've added your version of some of the documents to my archive and updated my links here: http://shopsmith.net/forums/showthread.htm?t=12750

Heath,
Yep, the Owner's Manual has issues. My scanner is a sheet feed only and the OM is a bit too thick to feed properly, so there's some 'smeared' pages. I'll bribe the LOML to take it to work and scan it on the 'document center' she has there. I don't really want to have to damage the original doc (pulling staples or cutting it apart) to be able to scan it.
No problems at all with linking the stuff I stuck out there today. I figgered you'd be the one that might be most interested
I don't think there is going to be a copyright issue since Yuba no longer exists ....

Thank you very much... the sales flyer is a great addition to the limited body of knowledge on these older systems.
