It started with the seed of an idea ...
In 1954 my father, Nordy Rockler, started a mail order woodworking supply
company in Minneapolis. It was then known as Minnesota Woodworkers Supply
Company, and among the products featured in the first catalog were specialty
wood veneers and hardware items such as knobs, pulls and table slides.
Woodworkers responded positively to having a place where they could always get
what they needed.
sprouted many strong and healthy branches ...
When I joined the company in 1969, our business was still a small one. We opened
our first retail store in Minneapolis in 1978, which was then known as “The
Woodworker's Store.”
Today, our retail chain stretches from Boston to San Diego, for a total of 35
stores with more on the horizon. Our catalog has also grown immensely, and is
now mailed to millions of woodworkers worldwide. Our magazine, Woodworker’s
Journal, is a leading publication dedicated to offering plans, techniques,
product reviews and tips to woodworkers.
Our steady growth –– including going from 15 employees in 1969 to over 500
today; the introduction of a number of “exclusive” products; and our dedication
to reaching out to both long–time woodworkers and those new to the craft,
including women –– was a personal goal for me and among the proudest
accomplishments of the company as a whole.
It's hard to believe, but we have just
celebrated our 31st year of business. As such, we would like to thank all
of our loyal customers who have contributed to making us a leading source
for quality woodworking tools and supplies. Only through our shared
passions for woodworking could this have been possible. Thank you.
As we move forward, rest assured that we will continue to offer a wide
range of essential, hard to find, unusual, and unique items. Not only
that, we will continue to offer them at the best prices around,
guaranteed! Whether you're a professional or a novice, we are committed to
offering the appropriate products to meet your needs. Because we
understand that sometimes you demand products of the highest quality and
sometimes you just need the best value to avoid breaking the bank.
Whatever your case, our trained sales staff will gladly help guide you in

Eastwood has recognized changes in the marketplace since
its inception and has always placed customer satisfaction at the
forefront. There has been greater demand for products geared to muscle
cars, street rods, trucks, and motorcycles in addition to the classics
over the last several years. The recent growth of the sport tuner market
has also placed a demand on Eastwood for innovative products that make
projects easier and the hobby more satisfying. Eastwood continues to add
high quality, pioneering products to their line. Hotcoat has expanded to
allow the coating of much larger parts and new lines of automotive
accessories allow the customer to use Eastwood as a one-stop-shop for both
restoration and customization needs.
