Ohio Tool Collectors Association meetings are held four times each year at various locations around the state of Ohio. The meets are often held at a historical site or local or state museum having tools and artifacts of interest to collectors. During these meetings, members can attend presentations and increase their understanding about early American trades, tools and techniques. Also members will put together displays or presentations featuring a special portion of their own collections, often rivaling museum diplays. These are the highlights of the meetings, and all members are encouraged to participate. All members are encouraged to bring tradings and sale items and tools for barter, exchange or just for showing off. Tables are provided, with registration, free at the meeting locations.
