Barry,

I have some Heathkit manuals and schematics (SB-101, etc) on Richards 
site (also some of the military manuals I have scanned).  I use an 
8.5x14 scanner and stich them together.  I have included the pieces as 
well as the fullsize illustrations in some files so one can print out 
the parts and tape them together.  It is a pain, but the schematics are 
the key to repairing these old machines.  I have yet to find a better 
solution.  I, too, am looking for a large format flatbed scanner.

I have tried commercial graphics houses with dismal results.  But again, 
I would be glad to try and make these diagrams available if someone 
would ship me thier originals.  I will return the originals after scanning.

Thanks!

Bill
