"Thank you for your important work. The more I read, the more my jaw drops by what I learn of the Windsor Armory, and the town of Windsor, too."

"Working at the American Precision Museum opened the door for me to talk to many professionals from the Manufacturing and Engineering fields. These insightful conversations helped me narrow down my career goals and focus my career path within Manufacturing as I went off to college. My time at APM prepared me to enter the workforce with first-hand knowledge and a network of contacts that will serve me well in the years to come."

"Gracious, informative, and enjoyable.... We were last at the museum over 20 years ago when it was already impressive to manufacturing history fans like us, but you have made it relevant to a far broader, younger, and diversified audience."

"I took my class here 'virtually' on a field trip. It was so cool to share the birth of modern manufacturing with my students. It's a fascinating place for anyone interested in making things."

"The American Precision Museum is not (just) for Gear-Heads. ...I'm not a machinist, but wish every family could visit this, one of the few demonstrations of the underpinnings of the prosperity manufacturing created."

Fresh roadside sign this Friday morning! A huge thank you to the William G. Pomeroy Foundation for their amazing historic sign program.
✨New Pop-Up Exhibit! Honey, I Shrunk the Tools! Miniature Exhibit 🛠
From mid-April to mid-May, visit the American Precision Museum to witness an incredible exhibit of miniature replicas of machines and tools. Admire the intricate detail of the craftsmen who replicated the form and function of the original machines and tools at a reduced scale, such as the working miniature steam engine and teeny hand tools.
A Precision Valley original, this grinder made by Bryant Chucking Grinder Company was produced just a half hour down the road from APM in Springfield, VT.
