Woodworking/Tool Shows & Exhibitions ??

[Maverick81]

Bonjour.
Last year i went to the annual Northern Woodworking and Power Tool Show in Harrogate. I would imagine some of you are familiar with this.
Can anybody tell me if there are any other events of a similar nature to this (preferebly North - but anywhere may be considered) ?
Also does anybody know of any tool/machinery themed auctions I might look into?

I am based in Humberside/Yorkshire.

Look at the sticky towards the top of the page for a list of shows. You're best to check with locals for machinery auctions in your area. Alternatively contact a local auction house and ask them as they will undoubtedly know who the specialist auctioneers are for equipment etc.

If you find posts using the "View new posts" or "View unread posts" option, like me, you probably won't see it.

There is a thread at the top of the General Woodworking section called Woodworking Shows/Training Courses/Training DVDs.

It's called a "Sticky" because it always appears to be stuck at the top of the section.

The Tool Fair is on at Harrogate next month, all power-tool related but well worth a look as all the major manufacturers are there and its free. If you pre register you get a bacon butty and a T shirt when you turn up.

I am based in Humberside/Yorkshire.

Humberside was abolished in the mid 90's

Most of the decent shows are further down south of the country.

Mainly aimed at the construction industry, so doubt there would be any scroll saws Webby.
