I'd never heard of Duro (too young, I guess ) but a Google search turned up some interesting information about tools made by the [Duro Metal Product Co.] on the Old Woodworking Machines website (http://www.owwm.com). I couldn't find a manual for the overarm router, but the Photo Index on that page has a couple of entries for 3100 / 3101 overarm routers. If either of those appears to be similar to your unit, you can apparently send a message to the owner like so:

Good Luck!

I had a Duro cast iron BS once upon a way-back-machine. What a beast. Really built solid. Kerry's given you the best lead I know of.

I had a Duro bench mount drill press for a while - now collecting dust in my brother's shop. It works fine - he's an occassional user. It was a decent machine, though it used cintered bronze sleeve bearings.
OWWM.com is your best bet. Good luck with it.

Here is a shot of my Dad's old Duro drill press that I now have. its been repainted & has a newer motor.
