Hey Guys,
I just got my hands on a massive amounts of VDF information and there is more to come! The first two documents come from the Smithsonian. If you have the chance to go there in person and get more documents here is the link to the record [Trade catalogs from Vereinigte Drehbank-Fabriken] | Collections Search Center, Smithsonian Institution.
Link to a little information on the VDF D, S and L models:

Link to lathes made in 1935. Standard Center lathe models E2 through to E9:

This website has information on the E2 lathe and manuals , all in German i think:
VDF Einheitsdrehbank Modell E2 | Familie Vogel
I also have a couple of old VDF advertisements coming and a book called "10 years" that features how the VDF lathes where made in the 1930's.
