Lee Valley Tools is one of my favourite stores. [Image: lol.gif]

Among other things, they collect information about old tool use and the owner has an amazing collection of old tools.

This month's newsletter has an interesting write-up about the business of ice, circa 1869.

Just thought I would share, for the fun of it.

Neat read; thanks smile

Though, after having my power knocked out for two days, I've seen enough ice for awhile... lol Thankfully, it came back on last night.
