Buckles Web Log

Save1410



...for the discussion of everything Circus and American Circus History in general.

The website of Buckles Woodcock (Ruskin, FL) is replete with many, many vintage Circus photographs and interesting commentary thereupon.  Well worth a few minutes browsing.

Old Woodworking Machines

Pages_from_1920combo

 

What you have here is a great treasure--a wonderfully organized site devoted to vintage woodworking equipment, complete with equipment description, images, company histories, and best of all, many, many scanned pdfs of company literature, including catalogs, diagrams, and operating instructions.

If you are even remotely interested in the history of industrial design, woodworking, or trade graphics from days gone by, you could do much worse than to kill a few hours exploring the OWWM site.  Highly recommended.
