The Three Rivers Tool Collectors Association meets four times a year to sell, buy and trade tools as well as share information about them. Come to one of our tool meetings to see, touch and purchase antique tools from famous names such as Stanley, Disston, Browne & Sharpe, Record, Norris, Lufkin, Starrett, Ohio Tool, Spiers, Millers Falls and more!
Meetings vary in content and may include a presentation by a member or guest, a tool swap or a field trip.
Consider joining our club. We have a diverse group of members from novices just wanting to learn more about hand tools to experts willing to share a wealth of information. If you think you may be interested in learning more about hand tools and want to join, you may attend one of our meetings as a guest or join online.
Benefits of membership
Annual dues are $15
The Three Rivers Tool Collector’s Association is a non-profit organization formed in 1976 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. We encompass the region of Western Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Eastern Ohio, but welcome folks from any location. We are collectors, sellers, users and historians of all woodworking and metalworking tools of the past. The group continues to grow with people interested in the technology of the past, the people who played a part in the development of this technology, and their role in the growth of our country and our region. By meeting together, we can often unravel some of the secrets lost to help hand tool users better understand their craft.
Interested in joining? You are welcome to join us for free for your first meeting to see if you would like to join the club. Simply just show up.
