Under the Microscope.
Musing in Green INK- diary of mad salvagers from Cambridge.
Your host: Green Spot (Vince).
yup, Craig.
Amazing what these can hold... we had about 1000 lbs of mortar and cement on one for a year, hauled around the store while undergoing renovations. Not a whimper.
And isn't it so cool, how these turn on a dime? I love them.
After a year'…
Hey, Craig... these are always wonderful additions.
And..... man they can be handy in a workshop or garage if they don't fit the living room anymore :-)

Then...... they shut down some facto…

We run an antiques store/salvage operation in Cambridge, Ontario. Just bought the building, and the reno certainly was a full "salvage" operation in itself. We re-used just about anything we could salvage during demolitions. If you're in town, drop by, it's a nice building. Was originally the Hutchinson's dairy, then Cedar Hill Dairy , and finally the nicest antiques store in cambridge.
Can you tell we're proud of it?
cheers.

We do film, and more.. a blast from the past, King City antiques show.
Sorry folks, we don't do "shows" anymore... way too busy with our own little store for that.
but here's a tidbit of ours.... a past showing from the King City antiques show - which, I'm told is no longer in existence.
Yup, collectible dealers are becoming collectible themselves... post for memory.

I consider Sales Taxes on used goods an evil blight on the entire system. It's as ANTI-GREEN as you can get (so it feels kinda personal, sheesh).… Continue
