I'm planning a trip to Minneapolis, MN in the next couple of weeks. Are there any neat woodworking stores or shops that I should visit?

7 Corners Hardware is in St. Paul. There's also a little chain you might have heard of called Rockler based there. There's a store south of town that has the "outlet" which is basically an aisle of stuff but at pretty good prices.

There is also a nice Woodcraft store in the south part of Minneapolis.

I hope you will be here in the last weekend of April. The Minnesota Woodworkers' Guild is having their annual Northern Woods Exhibition from April 28th through May 1st. This is an outstanding show. It is held at the Southdale mall and it is a must see woodworking event for anyone who enjoys fine woodworking. Check out their website: http://www.mnwwg.org/index.html

There is a pretty fair sized Harbor Freight in Minneapolis. You can see a lot of the catalog goods on the shelf.

Call and arrange a tour at Northfield. You'll be ruined for other tools. I wish I could afford them.
