Does anyone have file of the Westcott Auto frame dimension diagram that used to be posted on the interweb? That site became unavailable several years ago, and I thought I had the file saved - but didn't.

Thanks a million.

I keep trying to upload westcot picture but it always says file too large. Reduced to 2% and file still too large. Send me your Email and I will send you the picture

Thanks

I haven't seen that picture in forever (I have original prints) but I seem to recall there was some dimensions that were listed incorrectly. Did Karl get that worked out?? Again, he likely did but make sure.

Thanks, all. I had the drawing that katy attached (post #5) and a couple of the dimensions differ a bit from the Westcott drawing that Ordsgt sent me. When I removed the body from the frame of my '30 TS I built the roll-around dolly based upon dimensions in the Westcott drawing, and found a couple of the mounting holes in the dolly didn't match up with my body. Having said that, I know from experience how easy it is to transcribe numbers or confuse fractions when writing things down. My hat is off to Karl for making his drawing, and a lot of other information that used to be on his website, available in the first place.
