Ontario Antique Tools

Hosts an event, "Tools of the Trades" show and sale. The oldest continually operating antique tool show and sale in Canada. Currently run by John Pirie.

"The emphasis is on, but not limited to, hand tools for wood and metal working. The increasing interest in traditional woodworking and premium quality hand tools, has led to the recent resurgence of the high end, small scale hand tool makers. Several of these makers are in attendance at the show to present and discuss their offerings".

Tools & Trades History Society

This is a UK based society. I'd like to find something here, in Canada, or even closer in Ontario.

"...to advance the education of the general public in the history and development of hand tools and their use and of the people and trades that use them".
