Sold-out hotels and a jump in registrations bode well for Woodworking Machinery & Supply Expo 2017. Exhibitors with the largest displays at also happen to be perennial favorites, drawing big crowds and capturing great attention. 

Richelieu, among the top three exhibitors size-wise, has a striking breadth of hardware, panel, and tools on display. Richelieu will present live workshops in Booth #1014-1015. "Every woodworking professional knows how important it is to have the right tools and shop supplies," says the company. "Richelieu is at the forefront with a selection of products that outperform standard equivalents or get the job done more efficiently and professionally."

Grass Canada in Booth #1027 is planning to display its largest exhibit in North America this year at WMS 2017. A brand new concept exhibit will not only showcase their latest innovations but also feature a "hands-on" area in which attendees can actually work with the products.

At WMS 2015, McFadden's Hardwood & Hardware was easily the most crowded booth - largely as attendees watched demonstrations of SawStop tablesaws with flesh-sensing safety breaks. Part of the Würth Group since 2006, McFadden’s was first incorporated in 1965 as distributors of architectural paneling and building materials.
