If elec-trak.org site is no longer being
maintained, I suggest that someone make a mirror copy of it, just in case it
suddenly goes off-line forever...
Also, I'm the one who originally set up the yahoo
(formerly egroups) archive; mainly for the purpose of having a web searchable
archive. The web-crawlers also index it, so we get more exposure that way.
In fact, we've had countless (I stopped counting after several dozen... )
subscribers who learned of the tufts list via that archive.
Over the past year I've been busy with assorted
issues, and haven't even checked recently for new subscription attempts (I'm
sure there are many sitting there waiting, I used to do between a few and a
dozen every week or two, mostly as a courtesy for those who don't take the time
to read the group information). If anyone else wants to jump in and help
maintain the group, I don't mind at all; you just have to promise not to open it
up for open-subscription, I don't want to negatively affect the tufts
list.

I had no response on an email to the site last year. It
hasn't been updated in a while - Don Barry ( I think is the site owner), are
you out there? The elec-trak.org site is the natural place to have it all (and
already has so much!).
This group has the ability to post photos, and files, but
our moderator should speak up on how or if he wants to control that. I posted
a text file showing some parts substitutions last year, so it worked then.
Problem is the Yahoo groups are limited as to how much space is available for
these files, so we would need try to keep sizes down.
Barring the two methods above, perhaps one way to do it
would be to post a text file with names of those with material and what they
have. Individuals could then ask and get what they need directly with the
owner. It's not a great solution, but it could work.
I have the ability to scan and create PDF files, and so I
hope to make some of stuff I have available that way. I'll start with the
mower stuff as it's small and I have not seen it on the web.

I have some material that I would like to scan and post. Electrical
troubleshooting, snow blower manual etc. I tried to E-mail Electrak.
org but got no response. Can anyone suggest how to do it?

It is a nicely kept E20 with very little rust. The fellow was
very nice and
chased me down after I left because he forgot to give me
the plastic battery
covers! He doesn't 'do' internet and so he had no
way of finding the ET
community. Thanks to Harold for finding him. I
wonder how many more are
sitting unused in sheds, waiting to be
found....
The jackpot for all of us is a nice set of manuals -
including the first one
for the mower deck I've seen and a mimeograph
price list. I will try to get
it all PDF'd and posted here or to
Elec-Track.org.
It's interesting - I have met several people from
(or through) this list in
person over the past year and they have all
been really nice folks. I have
found a very nice hobby (that I can pass
off as a necessity when the grass
grows and the snow falls - which it
is today).
