Message from Robert Jamieson, President.

Forward Precision Tools and Machinery was incorporated over fifty years ago in 1956 by the late George Farago under the name Forward Precision Tools Ltd and has a long and distinguished history serving industry in manufacturing and metal working sectors in Canada. The company originally specialized in tooling and accessories and then branched out into machinery sales and became a full service machine tool dealer located for many years on Deerhide Crescent in Weston, Ontario. The company has undergone several changes of location and format in the last few years. These changes have been in response to changing market conditions and to align ourselves with current customer thinking and purchasing habits and methods.

Forward Precision Tools and Machinery now offers Clausing/Colchester manual machinery, spare parts and accessories, including the Pratt and Bernerd line of chucks and accessories.

Forward also continues to offer fine products from Newell, Dia Test and other first class manufacturers in the measuring and gauging world. As always we will continue to offer the Forward brand of machinery manufactured for us in Taiwan to our own specifications. Because we are flexible and will take good machines in trade we are able to offer quality re-conditioned machines at very fair prices. Check out also our offerings of surplus tooling particularly large diameter drills and milling cutters of all sizes.
