I paid my $5 to go to the Minnesota Woodworking show today. I thought it
might be worthwhile. It wasn't worth the $5. The show was put on by
Rockler Hardware.

It was like paying to shop at a Rockler store with lots of extra sales
help. There were not a lot of demos of any cool tools or things like
that. They had a few good deals on big iron compared to regular Rockler
prices, but you could probably beat most prices online.

They also had lots of small items on sale, but you couold get the same or
better deals at other places on most of the stuff.

The only reason to go would be if they are offering a seminar you want to
see. I saw at least one I would have gone to if I was there at the right
time.
