Canadian Woodworking Catelogue Sources?

Here is a question for readers from the True North: Would any of you be so kind (how's that for a polite Canadian) as to provide me with some contact addresses or telephone numbers or URL's for Canadian woodworking tools/supplies catalogues?


---------------------

-You can try: http://www.leevalley.com/ Lee Valley Tools from Ottawa. They have stores in many other canadian cities. Their catalog is superb and their mail order service is very fast. All the tools I have ordered there are first quality ones.

-ToolTrend out of Toronto is the Canadian distributor for Jesada router bits and blades. They also carry machinery and tools as well woodworking accessories and supplies. You can order a catalogue from the website at http://tooltrend.com/canada. The operation is similar to that of Busy Beee noted in an earlier post. They claim the lowest guaranteed prices in Canada.

Busy Bee has a branch located in the Lower Mainland at 30 Braid Street, New Westminster, B.C. Tel: (604)517-3922. They have a central toll free number 1-800-461-2879 for catalogue orders. There is a large catalogue available if you contact them for $5.00 with a rebate of that amount on your first order. They do mail order.

When in the Vancouver area you may also wish to check out KMS Tools, 110 Woolridge Street, Coquitlam and their tool clearance centre at 822 Brunette Avenue, Coquitlam, both of which is just down the way from the Busy Bee storefront operation. KMS does not have a catalogue nor do mail order but they do have lots of toys.

Also check out the the Rosendahl's who do the PBS Router Workshop show out of Manitoba (see http://www.routerworkshop.com/). They specialize in router related goods and they have a catlogue available which can be ordered through their sales company Oak Park Enterprises which has the URL http://www.oak-park.com/oakpark/
