BTDT - retired. If you follow Popular Woodworking magazine and tend to be a groupie for some of the self-proclaimed woodworking greats (just read the link), then go for it. That may sound pretty blunt, but I really have been there and done that sponsored by a magazine. Not that one. These shows are geared to the novice and slanted to the advertisers. Nothing wrong with that, unless you are expecting unbiased presentations. There will be a lot of 'what' to do, a little 'how' to do, and darn near NO 'why.' The 'why' we do things a certain way comes with experience. Novices don't have any of that so it is not considered very important. This is one area where forums like this one excel. Folks with experience chime in and explain why things work well and why they don't. Tool recommendations come as a result of using them, not as a result of trying to sell them. Often many different ways to get the same results are offered, so one can choose a process depending on their experience, tooling, and chutzpah. So if you like, go for it, but like Charles, I won't be there and not because I live further away. They do not have anything to offer me any longer except to try to sell me new tools.
