    Default Stanley Mitre Box manual

    I am trying to renovate the school's Stanley 358 Mitre Box.
    Would anyone happen to have a manual or rather a copy of the manual?
    I'd really like not to botch the job.
    At present it is held together with nails and is altogther a bit "loose".

    The kids love using it and it seems to give the smaller ones confidence about cutting straight, watching a tiny Grade 4 using the huge Stanley S.W. Disston saw is a sight to see.

    I have a manuel for one of the stanley mitre setups
    I'll see if it's the same one when I get home on the weekend
    If so I can PDF it for you next week

    I googled "Stanley 358 Mitre Box" and came up with this
    looks like mine is different from the 358
    There's also a photobucket essay or wip where some chap has done one up

    goodluck
    regards
