Worth knowing

The contact page gives the address as 520 E. Franklin Rd., Meridian, Idaho, while the About page still says the company is located in Redlands, California; the two pages disagree. Covington also carries the Ameritool range, and Lortone's site describes itself as a Covington company sharing the same Meridian address.
