...made "historical" tack and especially all the metal parts used on wagons and anything else metal you'd see in western movies. He did this for a living ...

I grew up in an area that has had a great influx of Amish. One Amish fellow I talked to worked in a shop making buggys, cutters and so forth. I presume there are several in Ontario. Not sure if any use wooden-wheeled wagons?

That depends on the church, honestly. Some are progressive enough to have turn signals, headlights and rubber tires on a steel frame buggy. Some are still the traditional wooden frame and wooden wheels. What’s interesting is bicycles are quite popular for getting to work or whatnot.
It’s kind of neat, a lot of local businesses have little barns to park the horse and buggy out of the elements

I have a picture somewhere when I was in Steinbach MB, a young Mennonite lady in an ankle length pink dress and bonnet....roller blading in a park. Actually the Mennonite museum in Steinbach is worth checking out, they have a working reproduction grist mill

Long story short there’s a mechanic shop closing up locally. He said a crokinole board maker was moving in where he was.

Crokinole boards....

That's uber niche.

I will post some photo's as soon as I get a cord hook-up from phone to laptop...and have someone who knows what or which "cloud" to transfer to so they get where I want them to go....I liked the days when you slid the card into a card reader and hit "send" to send a photo

I still have a fax that uses thermal paper. Never needs to be re-booted.

Your charging cord “should” have a USB end on it. That “should” plug into your laptop and allow photo transfer

Do you usually post on here using your laptop or using your phone?

Always on my laptop

Always on my laptop

Check to see if your charging cord has a USB end, then plug that into your laptop USB port

If you’re using windows on your laptop it should prompt you if you want to transfer the photos to your laptop

the last oil lite stock I purchased was from Transmission Supply. They have 0-1 Tool Steel, and Thompson shafting as well.
