Woodworking places in Boston?

I will be in Boston next week. Any not to be missed stores, or anything
else like that? Preferably around Framingham...

Last year I saw my first Rockler in Cambridge, but that is old now.

How about the North Bennet Street School in Boston? They turn out
some good products - people and pieces.

Just reinforcing the idea of North Bennet Street School in Boston's North
End. If you call ahead, you may get a tour. It is just a wonderful place
with great people. I took a few courses there before moving to Maine. For
a woodworker, it is like visiting Mecca. Next door is the Old North Church
of Paul Revere fame and the neigborhood if full of incredible eateries. You
will not be disappointed.

The highlight of Framingham is Shoppers World. If you have a couple of
hours, drop down to Providence and hit a few of the Italian food stores on
Federal Hill (Atwells Ave). Many good restaurants too. Same with Boston in
the North end.
