If you have a hard drive and Workbench is already installed on it you should be able to save this to a new floppy(s).

If not then you could try using a disk repair utility to extract the files onto a new disk. I've actually found that XCopy can sometimes copy a disk but not the error which is handy.

Failing alll that you can get Workbench disks on Ebay most of the time.

I'm sure there are websites with images but they better not show up here.

If you need a copy of the disk I will help you out.  IMHO if you own a Amiga with a 3.1 ROM/Original 3.1 disk, you are entitled to a copy of the disk since yours went bad.  Can you transfer a ADF to a disk?  PM me.
