Weekend Markets - Tool merchants

[Kuffy]

Anyone know of a weekend market which often has a bloke selling handtools. ideally on the west side of Melbourne.

There was one at the Sunday Market at the Coburg Drive-in, Newlands Rd, Nth Coburg on Sundays but not sure if he is still there.
I bought a router plane from him at the Maldon Collectables Fair last year and he mentioned that he attended the Coburg market.

A little further up the road .
But I spent quite a few weekends in Ballarat .
And often go to the Ballarat weekend market held on Sunday's all most ever Sunday at the Ballarat show grounds .
For a relatively small market ,there' seems to be quite a bit of old tool sellers there ,hand saws ,planes ,chisels etc.
9/10 times I'm there I usually pick up something

this sounds good. its an easy drive for me from Caroline Springs, straight down the western highway at 110km/h. just gotta find my snow gear so my city bones dont freeze.

Definitely need the snow gear .
They do nice jam donuts and lovely disgusting brown stuff ,passed off as coffee too.
