My standard reply to the "Whence Whitworth" query is to contact Robb
Nortier and the British Tool Company. I like to send business Robb's
way because he handles good quality stuff and is investing in
reproducing the special service tools (mostly Churchill) that aren't
available anywhere else. He sells wrenches and sockets, as well as taps and
dies.

Snap-On, of course, has the right stuff, at a price. Dial 1-800-TOOLS4U
and prepare to have your breath taken away at the cost.
A new addition to my list is Metric and Multistandard Corporation. They cater
mostly to metric hardware, but have an extensive selection of Whitworth and
BSP/BSPT/BA hardware and tools. Their catalog is lovely. I got it for
free, but that may be because I gave them a business address.
