Title: Catalog Bonanza!
Post by: bmwrd0 on September 25, 2018, 06:25:26 PM: I am sure that some of you have seen this before, but I was going through my links file last night and stumbled on this, having forgotten about it. There are an absolute ton of Tool catalogs here, I downloaded a Williams that I needed, some Herbrand and Cornwells, along with a pair of '50's Kliens (I was a phone man for a while so seeing the different gaffs and telephony tools was nice.) It gets updated all the time so it is worth checking out every once and a while.

At first I thought you were asking how to save the link on your phone, yet I didn't see what type of phone, LOL.
