Greg,

Email the DXF files to me and I can convert them.

Thanks,

Ed
Thanks for reformatting them and posting. Not to mention making them look so much beter. I sent them to Ed as raw drawings with no borders, so everyone thank ED for his work all I did was forward old files to him.What sort of program did you use?
If anyone wants to use them I'd be flattered. They may not be complete, Im bad for only starting drawings then finishing the design in the shop. If any dimensions are missing I can pull them from the tool or the original drawing.
Greg
I couldn't add this where Ed posted the drawings.

Greg,

I used Solid Edge 2D to import them to and then added the borders. Then to get them in PDF format I just printed them to CutePDF which is a program which acts like a printer but saves the file in PDF format instead of actually printing the drawings.

You weren't able to add a comment where I posted the drawings because only the person that posts the thread with the drawings attached can post in that thread. We do this because the "Files" section is meant to be just for file storage and not a discussion area. It acts as our "Upload/Download" area since we don't have a real one.
