    Default SA Exhibition - The Lost Tools of Henry Hoke

    The Lost Tools of Henry Hoke is an exhibition curated by Mark Thompson, author of the books 'Rare Trades', 'Makers & Fixers' and 'Blokes and Their Sheds'. It shows examples of unusual and ingenious tools invented by little known Australian Inventor Henry Hoke. Well worth a visit, I'm told. It received a big wrap on Artworks on the ABC this morning.
