I went about 10 years ago, and it was well worth the trip. Lots of cool stuff to see.
I like the old tool display, and there was a special shaker furniture exhibit that was great, but I wish it had more furniture.
The duck decoy collection was fantastic.
I would go back again, but allow myself more time to look at all the exhibits. IIRC, I only had 2-3 hours, and that was not enough.
Great museum. Four stars!
...Naval Aviators, that had balz made of brass and the size of bowling balls, getting shot off the deck at night, in heavy seas, hoping that when they leave the deck that the ship is pointed towards the sky and not the water.

I've been a couple of times, but a very long time ago. As you said, I'm sure I'd look at it differently now that I'm a woodworker. I was at
Hancock Shaker Village in NW Mass. about 5 or 6 years ago. That's another great place to visit if you are a woodworker and especially if you like Shaker.

If we take the ferry from Long Island to CT to go to my parents in VT, we go right thru western MA! I've been wanting to stop there. Once my son gets old enough to handle that kind of stop, I'm planning on it for sure! These days we just want to get to the end of the trip...
