YOUR FAVORITE WOODCRAFT RETAIL STORE IS EXPANDING and THE WALLS ARE COMING DOWN!
Yes, that's right...for your shopping enjoyment and to bring you more products and services, we are expanding our showroom space, library space, (bathroom space :-)), demo'ing space, and much more room for wood too!! Stop by often to catch-up on what's going on. We're also planning a "Grand Re-Opening Sale" later in the spring. Stay-tuned to this website for further details.
By the way, you may not see these Jet & Powermatic tools on display in the showroom, but ask us about them! Ron recently brought them in to inventory and they may still be available: 20" Bandsaw; 20" Planer; 8" Jointer; 22" planer; 24" lathe; horizontal dry bandsaw; 12" planer/jointer; and more! This weekend (26th & 27th) would be a good opportunity to take advantage of sale pricing on these tools! PLUS, Jet and Powermatic tools are now on sale...stop by!!!
