Check with your regular ISP and see if they support Usenet and binaries. I know of no -free- Usenet provider that does binaries.
I found a few ways with a google search of alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking:
alt.binaries.pictures.jetski.xusenet.com/ f/Usenet_unsort/alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking/
and
And somewhere, I have saved a link to a fellow's website that saves them all as well. Anyone have that on them?

I've used TeraNews as a backup for a few years and it is free.
I think that I heard a while back that they had instituted a small initial fee, but I've always gotten it for free.
They have some problems from time to time but have been pretty good recently.
