With Cyclone Tools and the Australian Men’s Shed Association, we’re celebrating the craft of tool care and restoration. Why? Because tools built to last deserve to keep on working for generations.
Why it matters
Every time you restore a tool, you save resources, reduce waste and keep a piece of history alive. From oiling timber handles to removing rust, small acts of care can have a big impact.

Created in partnership with Cyclone Tools and the Australian Men’s Shed Association, this practical guide shows you how to:
