Which catalogue should I be looking in?

Not in the Sears one. Don't purchase machine tooling
from them, it will be a waste of your time. Catalogs
have a wealth of information in them so you should
have a copy of the McMaster Carr catalog and the MSC
one as well, for spicy reading.

Both of those will go a long way to explaining what
kinds of tooling are available to do various jobs.
