A Millers Falls Home Page
Randy Roeder has carved out a niche for himself with his fine website devoted to the history of the Millers Falls Company, from its founding in Massachusetts in 1868 to its move to New Jersey in 1982. The company was famous for hand braces, chest drills, and hand drills, so naturally Roeder’s site is encyclopedic on that. He also covers the company’s planes, hammering home their chief influence by pairing each Millers Falls plane number with its Stanley equivalent. Roeder also has pages on the company’s Buck Rogers planes from 1949, so named for their red plastic handles.
