I am getting interested in woodworking and am trying to find out
what/where is available in the Silicon Valley, San Jose, Santa Clara,
CA area. I am looking for woodworking classes, woodworking tools and
other materials. I have visited Home Depot and Orchard Hardware
Suppies, but am wondering if there aren't any stores that specialize
in woodworking. Any suggestions?
Names and phone number of good catalogues would be great too.
