| When you enter the antique machine filled Shop, an oldtimer, the owner starts telling you how shops started working "in these parts" in the 1840's - 50's Click here to hear what it was like in those early rough, but verry innovative days when people didn't whine or wait for someone else to solve their problems but made things work with what they allready had around them using their own hands and brains.. THe Web page(is not)of Steven created by steven and maintained by steven Also see a 1900's converted blacksmith and Machine Shop on the nearby corner. Hear about the Toledo machine and tool co history. |
