    Default Markets For Old Tools

    A few weeks ago someone mentioned in a thread a Sunday market in Brisbane that quite often has stalls selling old tools, but I can't find it now. I will be up in Brisbane next weekend & would like to go & check them out. Does anyone know which market would be the best one for old tools.

    I think the reference was the one at Beenleigh.

    Beenleigh Showgrounds – The Sunday Markets

    I have not been there myself so I would like to know your thoughts if you get there.

    Went down to the Beenleigh markets today, both of them. Turns out there are two lots of markets at Beenleigh on a Sunday. Eventually got to the correct one, but hardly worth it. There were enough old spanners to melt down & make a battleship, old power tools & a lot of other junk. I did pick up a Record 4 1/2 plane & a small Diston saw, $35 for both. I only got the saw for the bolts,which I want for the kerfing plane I'm (slowly) making.
