This 1984 episode of The Woodwright's Shop kicks off its 4th season on PBS, with a visit to the Dominy carpentry show at Winterthur in Pennsylvania. He talks with Charles Hummel by demonstrating the methods and tools. State Farm Insurance began underwriting sponsorship.

Do you have the first episode of The Woodwright's Shop from 1980? Roy Underhill demonstrates a maul and a glut. It has the closing credits with a voiceover saying: "Roy Underhill is the author of The Woodwright's Shop, based on the series, a practical guide to traditional woodcraft". Then, we see the text reading on screen: "The Woodwright's Shop (c) 1980 The University of North Carolina Center for Public Television".

We will look this week! Thank you!

Unfortunately, we only have the 1984 video because it is about Dominy who was a huge influence to our area. Definitely contact NC Center for Public Television - I’m sure they can put you in the right direction. Best of luck!
