Are there any discount houses for tools similar to the audio discount houses?
Thanks.

Pick an issue of Fine Woodworking;  There are
many discount woodworking tool (hand as well
as power) suppliers.  Its an excellent magazine
as well.

Silva Hardware (Philadelphia) is certainly the best all around
source for tools at excellent prices.  Catalog used to be $0.50,
but may be more now.  They are a serious outfit.  No pruchases in
a year results in no catalog the next, not a flurry of mail telling
you how sorry they will be to cut you off their list!

Their (small) ad can occationally be found in Fine Woodworking.
