Hi Everyone, We had a great meeting at Collinsville. It was very well attended. The Tail Gate Tool Swapping at the meeting was very busy with a good assortment of tools changing hands. The Collins Axe Company displays of tools, axes, blacksmith shop and train layout were great! The Frozen Tool Swap Meeting was voted on and approved by the membership at the meeting.
