Hobart C-100 Update - December 2021

Toast

Has anyone found any resources for rebuilding, dismantling, sourcing parts for these obsolete machines?  I've read the other posts on C-100's and found Caroline's detailed photos no longer exist on this website (error - 404, page not found).

did you try archive.org? They snapshot websites regularly over time in case they disappear. Just need the URL for whatever seems to be missing now. If you don't know how, paste the 404ing URL here

Thank you.  I'll give it a try. 

Edit:  Ok, I tried the wayback archive, got a snapshot in June 2014, (Caroline posted her pics on Mar 30, 2014 that are gone) and when I looked at Caroline's posts  as of that June date, I got this for the links to her pictures:

404 Not FoundPlease forward this error screen to www.honeydolistguy.com's WebMaster.

The server cannot find the requested page:

Caroline;s original post is here, just scroll down to her honeydolistguy links for the pics.

@happycat. Good detective work.

Only recently did archive.org start archving (as in copying, and storing the copy themselves) the images.

Prior to that, they only copied/stored the text, (aka the .html) and merely relied on the links to the original images.

When the price of storage reached a certain point, then they could afford to copy/store images.  

I'm still not sure if they copy/store all images, some images, or whether or not they do tricks like convert to lower resolution to reduce file sizes of images.

 

I logged onto Mixer-Owners and did a search for Hobart and C-100.  I did not get many hits at all.  It seems directed toward Ankarsrum, Bosch, Electrolux, etc. mixers.  Kitchen Aid is not held in high regard (though some folks there love them), and Hobart seems to be ignored.

If you are ever able to find the videos, please let me know. I saved the link several years ago and now that I need it the videos are no longer accessible. (Sigh) I'll do the same.
