Durden Pacemaker

**freebs** · 21st February 2015, 07:06 PM

Hi everyone,
For quite a while now I have been on the lookout for a neat little Durden Pacemaker, and today I just picked one up. I've looked at all the old Durden posts here, but they can't be posted to anymore as most of them are too old. So I started a new one. Anyway, I was hoping someone may still have a manual available? I'll put a pic below, it's a little ripper! Should be nicely restored in no time flat

Any help would be immensely appreciated. Thanks

Please excuse my post, I searched and searched last night but only came up with really old posts. Today I found one only a few underneath mine. So I'm sorry and as the saying goes, don't drink and post on forums... something like that anyway

Hi

Did you ever get the Manual, I have almost completed my restoration of the same machine and need to get a manual so that I can setup the planner and try and get or make the missing attachments.
Hope you can help

I have just taken possession of a very similar device, but mine is called The Abbey All Purpose WoodWorker. (Electronic Industries Imports P/L)
It seems to date to pre 1940....
i do need a couple of parts, but not likely to find

Have an old one myself. My old Dads. Will have a look as someone sent me some info on them - see if I can find it.
BTW could you put up photos of the side table thingy as Mine seems incomplete -presume for sanding disc or horizontal borer????

Correct Side is for sanding disc and borer motriser. I found the planner is put on with 2 bolts on the side. need to remove the cover first

Hi, Nippy here with my first post. I was given Durden Pacemaker Home Woodworker. Design 30422 and what appears to be dates, seems to reflect circa. 1954-55. Would this be correct? The machine appears to have the basic guards and guides. I need to pull it down to have the lifting mechanism (I think) repaired. Has anyone an exploded view of this type of machine? TIA.
