Thanks for posting. I had not heard of that Hardware and I drive within 10 km of Millbank a couple times a year. I will have to check them out.

To fill in the gaps in my Gray metric combination set, I picked up a 16mm and a 18mm. When I bought the set, these weren't common sizes.I wasn't too impressed with polish, it looks like you can see grind marks under the chrome.

Only thing I knew about in Millbank is Anna Mae's bakery. Best donuts around.

Have to check out their hardware store at some point when I'm driving through.

I have quite a few Canadian made tools. Most I bought in the early eighty's.
Gray, Proto, Fuller, Craftsman, Cluthe, Mastercraft, and some Snap On.
The Proto Challenger wrenches is complete to 11/4. The Proto metric set is short a few but I completed it with USA Proto because the Canadian ones are pretty much imposable to find.I have Gray wrenches up to 1"and also Metric up to 19mm. Too many screwdrivers. Proto ratchets from ¼" to ¾". Also 3 sets of Gray socket sets. 3/8" to ½". Breaker bars and speed wrenches.

You Canadians have one awesome hardware store in Millbank, Ontario. My cousin works there. I have not seen a hardware store in the USA as cool as Millbank Country Hardware. They don't have a website that I know of , unfortunately.


Nephew took me there a few years back. Never seen a store like that,,,full aisles dedicated to a single brand. Ice cream shop across the road:thumbup:
