Partially because of timing, and partially because, aside from industrial arts oriented community colleges (with timing issues), the nearest woodworking school is over 400 miles away. ALL of the well known woodworking schools are effectively as far away or farther than Handworks/WIA this time around. Because I have an irrational aversion to flying places (note: I don't have an aversion to flying, I'd just much, much rather ride, which is also less expensive), the amount of time necessary to get to/from many of these schools is actually longer than the class. Not being retired, I don't really have that much time free.

Handworks/WIA have the advantage of concentration. And scads of like minded individuals.
