Our own Rustcollector displays and sells at this show each year, and this might be the last time. Join him at the 56th Annual Pageant of Steam.

I go there every year. It's one of the best shows in the North East.

Look for us. Mention you're a member here. Anything in particular I should have you are looking for?

I'll wear my ToolTalk shirt if I'm not to fat for it. I have a feeling it shrank since I got it.  What row are you in ??

I tend to buy vises and automotive / small engine tools and parts.

I'll be there Friday morning.  One of my favorite events of the year.

We are in the last row before you go into the display area, on the left side of the road about 3/4 of the way up. We normally have an oversized crescent wrench hanging at the entrance of our tent. I don't think I have any vises this year. Not sure about small engine tools, might be some mixed in. I'm looking to clean out the low end stuff this year up there as far as wrenches go.

I think I'll be there on Thursday morning. I have to be at a trapping convention as a vendor in Little Valley later in the day. I usually spend most of the time there in the flea market area. Last year I bought a Wilton Bullet vise in the last row and had to carry it to the far corner of the parking lot. I almost blew out my elbow.

 I'll be going to the Alexander Steam engine show as well.
