November 16, 20187 yr Popular Post Just received my annual MWTCA reprint courtesy of the membership benefits that MWTCA bestows upon its members. I love these old reprints, I am getting quite the collection since being a member of the MWTCA for the past 7 years. Each year, the MWTCA chooses an out of copyright manual of tools, an old catalogue, an old machinist manual of best practices, etc, etc. They run a brand new reprint off their press and they send them out to all members of the MWTCA. Here is our reprint for this year. A Peck, Stow, and Wilcox Co. catalogue of tools, both woodworking and metalworking tools. The cover of the book. I just opened a random page to show the contents. Pretty cool eh! Hey MWTCA members here on TPW, have you gotten your reprint yet?

November 16, 20187 yr Yes I have. It now has me following two auction sites that I spend a couple hours a week drooling over vintage tools.

November 17, 20187 yr Got mine a while back......seems to have been printed out before the PEXTO No. 8012 brace drill I have was made...with the Samson chuck....I did find the 7/8" corner chisel I used to have, though...... I'd be in BIG trouble, if I could order from that catalog......
