My weekend was not complete without watching Norm build something

[@PrimalEdge]

Norm is amazing. He and my father fostered my love for Making.

[@Fiberglasser03]

This show was so great. The beginning segment where Norm goes somewhere that has what he is going to build is a nice addition to the show so you have an idea in mind while he is building it.

[@jason-hh6lu]

I could sit and watch Norms projects for hours. 👍🏻

[@michaelhenry5946]

I watched almost all of the New Yankee workshop years ago. I actually found 2 VHS tapes last year when renovating our house. I learned a lot from Norm. Many thanks.From Scotland.

[@williamcap2236]

Beautiful ! If it were just a little wider that could be used as a TV stand ! I would put my 55 inch TV on it. My pop loved you Norm ! Thanks for making him happy. Miss You Dad ❤

[@Steve-fx2fb]

I feel ya man. My dad loved Norm as well. I loved watching these episodes with him.

[@tonichunt]

Feel like I've been watching Norm all my life. This old house is just as good

[@167curly]

That shelf project certainly took a whole catalogue of your skills, Norm. Thank you.

[@TrooperLITE]

Such a gorgeous piece of furniture

[@johncornell3665]

Great project Norm. Looks awesome, thanks!

[@shawnataylor7998]

Beautiful!❤

[@michaeltrivette1728]

Thanks to Norm for all the knowhow.

[@aramis295]

Nice job on making the 3 brackets for the console, Norm! Even the routed detail on the small ones look just as great as that graceful curve is!

[@nickcrimi9657]

You know what’s great about this wall console is you can put an engine block on it when you’re done and the weakest link are the wall studs.

[@thecommonsenseconservative5576]

7 minutes in.... I need more clamps to do this😂😂

[@kclefthanded427]

The ones from the store mostly look like crap. This is refreshing

[@wdwtx2.0]

That mahogany is something.

👍👍👍👍👍

[@jamesoncross7494]

How do you secure it to the wall?

[@gordotiti]

Find your studs and bolt it to the wall.

[@areareare9953]

I'd love something like that - but my apartment is made of stucco and balsa wood and it would tear out.

[@evanbush1426]

6:05 Does anyone know the model number on that Delta X5 planer?

[@mrpiccolo23]

Delta 50-785

[@evanbush1426]

@ Thank you!

[@4HBirtcher]

Norm, it doesn’t have to be for candlesticks! It’s either nowadays for a large flatscreen television which has feet on the bottom of the television! Or Christmas decorations!

[@4HBirtcher]

9:44 Where’s your little “Dremel rotary tool”? Like the one you used with the cowboy sideboard project because a regular handheld router is a little too big for the decorative routing design!

[@johnsrabe]

13:04 Sure seems like you should make those laminations first and use them to make the template for the top. They’re gonna be what they’re gonna be, and getting some precise radius is not neccessary.

[@crackheadjimmy7625]

I'm sure he knows what he is doing and the precise radius absolutely matters when you draw up a plan and execute it.

[@johnsrabe]

@ Norm knows what he’s doing and exactly how much the laminations will bounce back when released from the clamps. But to be safe, non-Norms could make the laminated part first and use the resulting curve to make a detailed, precise drawing for the rest of the piece.

[@crackheadjimmy7625]

@@johnsrabe he just drew it up to be a certain way

[@johnsrabe]

Sigh

[@johnsrabe]

1:07 If you have good taste and value your sanity, do not watch the intro where they visit the designer showcase house. I got the shakes.

[@Curly_Maple]

Why?

[@johnsrabe]

Oh. WALL hung console.

[@caseywood9781]

Still going through puberty

[@jeff1176]

$1500 or more in wood alone in todays prices. Add labor that console table is $3500 to $4000 today.

[@Archosphere]

My one grip with most woodworker is the use of secondary woods for the Back. Any piece should be built for 360 degree finishing. You make this beautiful; well-crafted; life-time, pieces ...and then you slap a piece of plywood on the back. Never made sense, well the 2 cents you saved. Big whoop.

[@ScienceTalkwithJimMassa]

Plywood is stronger when attaching heavy items to a wall.

[@201081hero]

360 degree finishing? Why would a project like a chest of drawers, cabinets or anything like that have solid wood on the back if its going to be hidden or rarely seen? Do you not realise the cost of solid wood as well as the time & effort it takes to prepare it? Using plywood is a no-brainer - its dimensionally more stable, more durable and in likely stronger than solid wood.

[@marcdoherty6039]

Noone will know that you used a router? Umm Norm, you do understand that people just watched you use a router..right?

[@201081hero]

Most people would have got the joke but I cant tell for sure whether you did.
