How do I get into the 'Manual Section' on this site please.

Brian,

You should see a list (in blue) in the upper left corner that reads: Forums, Manuals, Chat, Upload. Simply click on the "Manuals" link. If you're not seeing that area, try dragging the left side border to the right as it might be covering that section.

Thanks Doug but still cannot find it, tried what you suggest but nothing happens, I'm cold and tired so may not be thinking right, try again tomorrow,

Brian, try this:

http://8mmforum.film-tech.com/

Then click on manauals in this top left. If there is no manual option in the top left place then place your cursor on the grey vertical border on the left side of the page until you see a double horizontal arrow. Click and drag the border to the right. Wow! This is so cool!

Thanks Dan, Got it now, but what I wanted is not there, in April 06 Craig Hamilton was including one on the Eumig 824 but I can't find it, never mind one may turn up later.

Hi Martyn, Do what Dan said and click onto the 'http://--' in his message and thats how I got it, like you I had nothing but its OK now.

Thanks, Brian & Dan. Wow is an understatement - what an amazing resource! Who set it up/runs it/adds new material? Be great to see lots more narrow-gauge manuals added - they are just so hard to get hold of.
