Tools & Co. was born in Avellino on the initiative of Claudio Nigro, modelmaking enthusiast, that, like every lover of this hobby, knows the difficulties to find the necessary machines and tools. Just noting the need of these requirements he created a company made by modellers and directed to other modellers. The company wants to provide Italian and European modellers, craftsmen, students and gunsmiths, with those equipments and support so difficult to find through the traditional channel of sale.
Tools and Co. is always in search for new products and solutions to expand its catalog to better suit customers needs. Our light and efficient organizations is created with the scope of offering the best customer service and lower prices.
In 2011 we decided to add 2 new e-shops to better display our different product ranges:
-
www.toolsandco.it is the main site, evolution of the original shop, that sells model engineering tools and machine tools for wood and metalworking.
-
www.sherline.it is a shop devoted exclusively to the Sherline product range of mini machine tools. Tools and Co. is the Italian official importer for Sherline Products Inc.
-
www.planesfactory.it is a specialized shop for aircraft building and maintenance tools. The amateur aircraft building hobby is slowly growing up also in Europe (in the USA is already a big part of the General Aviation world) but finding those specialized tools is not always an easy task mainly for the private customer. Planes Factory imports and distributes aircraft tools not only to amateur builder of experimental and ULM aircrafts, but it also serves Aeroclubs, specialized aircraft maintenance shops and anyone involved in aircraft construction.
