   I don't know the local tool merchants in Derbyshire, but Axminster Power Tool Centre is not a bad place to start for online purcahses. Screwfix is another online tool seller to have a look at.

   For timber, if you are looking for a company with a good reputation try John Boddy Timber at Boroughbridge, Yorkshire. Also have a look at British Hardwoods in Keighley.

   At least my response might flush out some of the other rare British based Knots habitues that might have more information about your area. You might also have a look at the knowledge base and resources listed at one or two of the British based woodworking forums such as this one. Slainte.

   I live in Leicestershire and have found the following websites useful

   Classic Hand tools,Rutlands.(often has a 10% off sale around Christmas),Axminster tools,D&M tools

   David Stanley auctions (based in Coalville but has auctions in Burton on Trent.( Auctions two types International auctions of collectors tools and general auctions of woodworking tools)

   Tilgear does not have an internet site but does have a cd rom tel 01707873434 Based in Herefordshire

   There is a tool shop in Bakewell but prices are on the expensive side Bakewell itself is an attractive small town and worth a visit in its own right

   If you would like me to e mail you with a folder containing all the sites I have found of interest Please e mail me directly

    

   regards Charnwood
