Basically the same. I think Home Improvement stores carry more big ticket items like cabinets and appliances. Many hardware stores call themselves DIY centers and have qualified workers to help with questions.

Q&A: Homemade Solar Panel Question – What Ebook to buy?

Question by ron1234: Homemade Solar Panel Question – What Ebook to buy?
I recently asked a question as seen below and only recieved 2 answers but both were stating that most homemade solar panel guides or build home solar panels are mostly scams..well I have purchased 2 ebooks so far and they are OK and it seems like it is possible, but the ones I purchased are not clear enough…However, I see so many places and forums where people are succeeding at building their own home solar power…If anyone has found any ebooks or resources that can help me build one, I would appreciate it…Thanks for the input…below was my previous question…..
“I just purchased a new home and am wanting to go green a little. I want to attempt and make my own homemade solar panels. I have found so many Do It Yourself solar panel guides and reviews I don’t know which one to use or trust. Does anyone have any recommendations that are tried and true that work and with very detailed on how to make your DIY solar panel? Thanks for the help.”…

Research Home Depot, or Lowe’s. They may have classes on how to do it, and I think the classes are free. Or…one of the sales people might even be able to tell you that works in that dept.
