Making Legacy Tools. Shop Ready

Located in Nashville, Indiana, Brown County Tool Works was founded on a simple belief: they just don't make them like they used to. We specialize in restoring, refurbishing, and repairing vintage cast iron shop tools for woodworking and metalworking. Our mission is to take legendary, heavy-duty machinery and get it back to doing what it does best—working hard in your shop.

What We Do

We know that pro homeowners and dedicated hobbyists demand precision and durability without the inflated price tag of brand-new, lighter-weight machines. That is why we focus on bringing classic, superior tools back to life. From restoring reliable Craftsman 113-series table saws to tuning up heavy-duty Delta, Jet, and Grizzly jointers, planers, and bandsaws, every piece of equipment we sell is rigorously checked and ready for your next project. We pair these restored machines with a curated selection of heavy-duty accessories and essential workshop components to complete your setup.

The Brown County Promise

We operate on a "Hospitality First" mindset. When you buy from us, you aren't just getting a tool; you are getting machinery backed by people who respect the craft and know the equipment inside and out. We are here to provide superior tools at better prices, ensuring your shop is always ready for the work ahead.
