On my last visit to new york I went to woodworkers warehouse in
Flushing which was great. Unfortunately as you know they went bust, so
I'm looking for a new store to visit on my up coming trip. It's great
to walk around a place like that and see the quality woodworking tools
that are just not available to us over this side of the pond. So any
recommendations on a good store to visit along the lines of
woodworkers warehouse in new york city.

Western Tools has picked up a few of of the east coast WWW
stores...unfortunately the only one in NY is in Port Chester, about 30
minutes north of Manhattan. Haven't checked them out yet.

Are there any in Suffolk? (Dynamite Tool is a really neat place but
not, strictly speaking, a woodworking store. WW Warehouse is gone but
they were never much good anyway. Is there anything else around?)

Dynamite is the only one I know of, but from where I live I have to pack a
lunch and change of cloths for the trip, hahahaha. Richie at Dynamite is a
big supporter of our woodworking club, so it's always worth the trip out.

Definately check out these guys, http://www.toolsforworkingwood.com, the are
on 20th I think. Give them a call and they can guide you in. Alot of galoot
stuff.
Garrett Wade is aways a good choice, but going down hill.
Unfortunately that's about it. We are starving for woodworking stores here
on Long Island. There is literally no woodworking store in Nassau County.
