Woodworking Courses

I would like to take some courses on the safe and accurate use of woodworking machinery, such as table saws/routers (which I am nervous around - had a piece of wood kick back on me, and gave me a bad bruise). I have a Shopsmith which I am going to go through the setup procedure again to make sure it is all square and running properly, but would like to be shown how to actually use the various kinds of machines, by someone who knows what they are doing. Have been doing some searching via community colleges and such, and can't seem to find anything. I live in Mississauga, west of Toronto, and ideally they would be evening classes.


---------------------

-Have you checked Lee Valley? They sometimes offer courses on various aspects of woodworking or they may know of some other place that offers these things.

-Check http://www.shopsmithacademy.com/ they have roadshow classes. There was one here in SC sometime during the last year, don't know if they travel north of the border.

-Many of the high schools around here offer woodworking classes in the evening. I took two WW courses at one, and am taking a turning course at another.
