I know their were a couple guys on here in the past that were Cornwell dealers. I don't know if they still frequent this forum anymore and I don't remember their usernames.

I'm here but I'm based in England. There is a GJ member that is a Cornwell dealer in the U.S, user name mepilotunot. Last time he logged in was in April though.

off topic but do you get much trade? I'd imagine Cornwell is kind of a unheard of name in the uk, I do see the odd toolbox on eBay uk. I only know of it from here and USA tool sites. do you operate a tool truck?

Yes I run a tool truck. Cornwell is doing very well in the U.K market and is growing rapidly. Cornwell U.K are brilliant to work with and really go the extra mile taking care of their dealers. Out of the big 4, Snap-On has the most U.K dealers, followed by Mac, Cornwell and Matco.

Welcome to the forum. Some of our members think Cornwell trucks are mythical like a unicorn.

Post a pic of your truck to set their minds at ease.

Not only have I never seen a Cornwell truck, I've never even seen a Cornwell tool. (except in pictures)

What part of GA are you in?

One of the best tool dealers I ever had was a Mac guy, same shop the worst was Snap On:(, the shop I work at now the indy guy used to be MAC before they started having all of there issues with product etc. I used to work for a supplier for Mac Matco and Cornwell, The largest district meeting I ever did was in TN, larger numbers than the Matco group in the same area. I had a Cornwell DM come by a shop I worked at and said he had a new dealer coming to the area, but never did see him.

We need that pic. Would be an awesome avatar. If you ever got booted off here I'd expect you to come back as MATSNAPCORN.

I remember many years ago when I had never heard of Cornwell. I was at a local flea market and there was a guy selling a bunch of odd and end tools. I picked up a Cornwell wrench that was mixed in with the Mac and Snap-on wrenches. I picked it up and handed it to him. I told him he had one of his "generics" mixed in with his good stuff. lol…
