This year’s Lumber & Tool Auction is being held in conjunction with the Shaker Heritage Society Harvest Craft Fair at 25 Meeting House Road. The Craft Fair is hosting over 85 vendors as well as craft demos, tours, food, live music and petting zoo.
Our last Lumber and Tool Auction was held on September 16, 2023 More than a hundred NWA members and public attended to enjoy great offerings on cash-and-carry and auctioned woodworking tools and lumbers.
Over 1850 board-foot of lumber including white and red oak, maple, cherry, and exotic wood was auctioned. Major tools such as table saw, jointers, and planers, dust collectors, as well as small tools such as hand tools, sanders, and routers were also sold.
Note: Proceeds from our tool sales go 50% to the Fiske Fund (an educational grant fund used to defray costs of woodworkers’ education) and 50% to the NWA general fund.
