    Woodworkng related stuff in Chicago area?

    I'll be spending a few days in the Windy City in a few weeks. Any suggestions for good woodworking or tool related shops or other woodworking related things to see/do?
    --I had my patience tested. I'm negative--

    Stay away from Chicago....lol. There is Rockler and Woodcraft. That's all I am familiar with.

    Chicago has some good museums along the lake. My favorite was the Museum of Science and Industry.

    Museum of Science and Industry is the best. Love that place. Much more along the interests of most of us. The Willis Tower (former Sears Tower) is always a worthwhile view to take in. Ed Debevic's is a fun place to dine if you are up for being given a hard time. All in fun! https://www.eddebevics.com/about-story
