A Millers Falls Home Page Bit braces Breast drills Hand drills Planes Push drills & drivers Biographies History Publications Price guide Galleries Goodell-Pratt Langdon Reprints Links Site Search This page serves as the directory to an encyclopedic study of the Millers Falls Company for the years in which it was located in Massachusetts. The site features a company history, biographies of figures associated with the business, guides to some of the hand-powered tools it manufactured and an illustrated list of publications distributed by the manufacturer. A Massachusetts-based entity until 1982, the firm was incorporated as the Millers Falls Manufacturing Company in 1868, was renamed the Millers Falls Company in 1872 and became a division of Ingersoll-Rand in 1962. Operations were relocated to New Jersey in 1982 following a leveraged buyout. Although the company's hand-powered woodworking tools are emphasized here, the firm manufactured and distributed precision tools, mechanics' tools and power tools as well. The site's emphasis on hand planes, bit braces, drills, miter boxes and screwdrivers can be deceiving. Those using these pages should be aware that for the last fifty years of its existence, the operation was dependent on the success of its electric tools. The pages at oldtoolheaven.com also contain information on the hand tools of a number of hardware businesses that were either absorbed by the Millers Falls Falls Company or affiliated with it in some way. Notable among these are the Goodell-Pratt Company, the Langdon Mitre Box Company, and the various enterprises of Charles H. Amidon and Quimby S. Backus. The tools manufactured by these firms were of excellent quality. Like Millers Falls products, they are valued by collectors and woodworkers. The product of sixteen years' research, the site is revised as new information comes to light. The author, Randy Roeder, has been an academic librarian for over thirty years and has written a half dozen tool-related articles for the Gristmill, the journal of the Mid-West Tool Collectors Association. He continues to research the Millers Falls Company, its predecessors and the businesses related to it. Featured sponsor A number of recent additions to this site have been made possible by The Museum of Our Industrial Heritage, an organization located in Greenfield, Massachusetts, that seeks to preserve the rich history of the machine and hand tool industries once located in the vicinity. The museum's stated mission is to preserve the physical artifacts, archival materials and social history of industrial Franklin County and provide related educational programs. The professionalism, courtesy and helpfulness shown the author by the museum's staff have earned it a rotation in the site's sponsor category. The Museum of Our Industrial Heritage is the site's first cultural institution to be featured in this manner. The museum houses its collections in the historic Newell Snow building, an industri
