CU Woodshop Supply sadly closed in May, wrapping up business with a liquidation sale in July. Now, it looks like it will be revived, just in a different format. From the News-Gazette:
“Local artist and businessman Brian Knox has purchased rights to the business name and remaining inventory and plans to open a new retail shop under the same name, but in a different location, next month.
And a group of former shareholders in the business are starting a new venture in which woodworkers can buy monthly memberships to access space for their projects, use the equipment and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow woodworkers.”
Champaign Woodworkers Club will set up shop, so to speak, at the former site of CU Woodshop Supply at 1302 Parkland Court. You can read more here.
