The three-day Annual Air Works Consignment Auction and Mt. Hope Showcase events are set for February 19-21, 2026
at the Mt. Hope Event Center, on the Mt. Hope Auction Grounds in Mt. Hope, Ohio.
“We are excited about the growth of both the auction and Mt. Hope Showcase this year. With the building
expansion it has opened so many more opportunities for everyone,” said John Wengerd, CEO of the newly
restructured Air Works Auction Company.
The Auction starts each day at 8:30 and Mt. Hope Showcase trade show hosting nearly 300 vendors opens at 8 each
day.

Mt. Hope Showcase Trade Show Expansion
Thanks to the expansion of the Mt. Hope Auction Event Center, Mt. Hope Showcase—the trade show held concurrently
with the Air Works Consignment Auction—now features an additional 33,000 square feet, plus an extra 8,000 square
feet of mezzanine space, allowing it to accommodate nearly 300 vendors, up from nearly 200 last year.
This year’s Auction has over 30,000 items consigned, selling in more than 20 rings. For details on specific
items, check the website at airworksauction.com.
History of the Air Works Consignment Auction
Air Works Consignment Auction was founded by Reuben Troyer who owned the Air Works store along Route 250, near
Apple Creek, Ohio, where he sold and repaired small engines and turned gas motorized pieces into pneumatic
equipment which made it more suitable and accepted for conservative Amish groups.
Auctions run deep in the Troyer family. That legacy began in 1948, when Reuben’s father, Eli Troyer took a job at
the Kidron Livestock Auction, clerking sales and spending one or two days a week in the auction world. His sons
grew up immersed in that environment, laying the foundation for what was to come.
More than 30 years later, Reuben Troyer sought a way to sell quality, well-maintained rental equipment from his
growing Air Works business east of Apple Creek. Staying true to the Troyer spirit, he turned to the auction
process. The Air Works Consignment Auction was born with the first sale held in 1990 alongside Auctioneer Steve
Andrews at a neighboring farm.
As the auction grew, so did its needs. After three years, the sale moved to the Kidron Auction grounds, where it
thrived for more than two decades. The partnership provided a dependable, well-equipped location that supported
continued growth—no matter the weather.
In 2015, the expanding sale moved to Mt. Hope to accommodate increased volume and more indoor selling space. The
new location allows the auction to begin on Thursday and conclude by mid-afternoon Saturday, giving buyers more
flexibility and reducing weather-related delays during unloading week.
Reflections from the Founder
As Reuben Troyer, founder of the event, reminisces and reviews the dynamics and experiences of the past 37 years
of the Air Works Consignment Auction, he simply says,
“We are blessed many times over.”
“I am not the most organized fellow, but the chaos and energy that comes with an auction—it’s who I
am—and it makes me come alive.”
With the continued growth of the Auction, Reuben and different ones of his children have taken various
responsibilities over the years.
“I feel extremely grateful that our family is intimately involved, as well as, the many friendships that
have come through the auction. It’s truly incredible to experience,” said Troyer. “I wish I would have a whole
week the night before the auction to talk to all the people who attend.”
Transition to a Family-Owned Corporate Structure
Over the past several years, the Troyer family has been in conversation about transitioning the business from a
founder-led operation to a family-owned corporate structure. That process formally began as the family sought a
long-term framework that would provide clarity, stability, and continuity for future generations. Valuable
guidance throughout this transition came from the Anabaptist Financial Business Advisory team, whose support
helped shape the structure and direction of the company.
As a result, Air Works Auction Company was formed, bringing together Reuben and Mattie Troyer along with most of
their children. In August 2025, John Wengerd, formerly with Flextur of Dalton, Ohio, was hired as CEO, allowing
the company to move forward with experienced leadership. This also enables the Troyer family to focus on
governance, strategy, and growth opportunities under the new parent company structure.
New Business Services
With the added leadership the newly formed Air Works Auction Company continues to offer business liquidations and
dispersals. Since this transition the Auction Company also offers agent services for reselling turn key
industrial businesses. Since August, two turnkey businesses have been sold, and the one company listed and
available as of this writing is Daystar Lighting Systems. The Campbell Hill, Illinois-based company manufactures
natural lighting tubes connecting roof to ceiling, and is popular among plain folk, requiring no electricity and
extending daylight hours every day of the year.
Monthly Auctions & Event Details
Air Works also hosts monthly equipment consignment auctions at their Dalton, Ohio warehouse which is open to
outside consignments and has several loads of import equipment each month.
See the Air Works Auction website for the monthly auction dates, as well as, all the early consignments for the
February 19-21 auction.
Auction Hours
8:30 each day until the item areas are sold out.
