CALIE began manufacturing woodworking tools to supply local demand in January 1987. Since that time, our tools gained popularity by word of mouth from our satisfied customers. In the 1990’s, national and international woodworking magazine articles about our products generated interest in our tools from woodturners around the world. For the past 20 years, we have been supplying the discriminating woodturner with the best tools we know how to make. All of our tools are designed and proudly manufactured entirely in the USA. Now, via our website, we will continue to supply discriminating woodturners worldwide with fine woodworking tools from California Import / Export.
