What a beautiful piece that was used in the past but works just as well now. Thanks Norm!

I understand wanting to protect your content, but seeing people who had recorded it from the tv and uploaded it, most were not claiming it was their own work but they had lost episodes and the original commercials which made you feel like it was Saturday morning watching it on an old zenith tv.... man im old😂

Before we use any power tools, let’s take a moment to talk about shop safety. Be sure to read, understand, and follow all the safety rules that come with your power tools. Knowing how to use your power tools properly will greatly reduce the risk of personal injury. And remember this: There is no more important safety rule, than to wear these, safety glasses.

This being a "lost" one from 20 years ago kind of makes it special enough to deal with the AV issues.

Asterisk* Episode is best attempt quality upload from the NYW team. Video/Audio quality issues apparent. Not every original episode survived over time and the NYW team is doing their best to complete the library online from sources less than ideal when needed.

Oh, i've always done grain filler first before doing anything with it.

Imagine being Norms neighbor or friend and he asks you for help holding or installing something before you go to work, how cool is that😊🎉👍🇺🇸.

Something is wrong with the sound on this one!!!

Anyone notice static in the audio?

Something tells that the measured drawing is lost as well

5:31 This episode features Norm with a new surface planer! However why didn’t you hook up the dust collector or have a trash can in front of it because you got sawdust all over the workbench silly!

Another rare episode. It's always good to see what was once lost. On a more somber note, on August 21, 2024, Norm's old friend and This Old House icon, Roger Cook, passed away at the age of 70.

R.I.P Roger Cook.

This screen is such a beautiful project for those who want to learn how to make raised panels with a router bit at 10,000 rpm, Norm! Beautiful proportions!

Handy build.

❤️👍

I remember building every one of these jigs decades ago. Thank you Norm!!!

I have really missed seeing the teaser at the end of the episode for the next project. Thank you for including it.

Great to see you Norm. I’ve got a little shop full of some really great tools, along with many half finished projects, stacks of wood cut offs everywhere (because I’m afraid I might need them one day) and I haven’t had the health or the time to do anything. However I go back and watch all the various series you helped with and feel like I’m getting something done…have a great day!

When this show first aired, the plans for the many projects used to be in a bin at the front counter of most woodworking stores and if you wanted to take one or two they were free. They were on a heavier weight paper and they would make their money selling the videos that matched. I have a few of them like this router build, a baby’s cradle and some others. They stopped giving them out for free after a couple years but the plans were very accurate and easy to follow. I still have this router table and it should last another 30 years. I made some improvements for the dust collection. My only concern is my 3hp Porter Cable router might eventually die and that will really hurt if that happens. New Yankee Workshop was a great show and its host Norm was the perfect match to encourage people to get busy and build.

RIP Russ. Huge inspiration to all of us on so many levels.

Click bait. No tragedy shown. Norm set the standard for woodworking expertise. Read by AI.

👍

I was 25 years old when I saw this episode. I wanted to build this so bad and forgot about it over the years. I finally "purchased those measured drawings" at the end of the show. Thanks Norm, you are missed.

😊

look at the size of that 12V drill.........that was top of the line back in the day.

I think you messed up the cherry natural color that is so pretty!

My first dealing with Norm Abram was watching Bob villa and you introduced us to a new kind of wooden joint called a scarf joint. I'd like to see more of those kinds of things where you use no metal or glue.

I thoroughly enjoy watching Norm Abram build his expertly crafted projects! Thank you for all you done to expose the younger groups to a timeless craft so that it will not fade away.

This music has helped me relieve fatigue and stress

Watched this show as a kid. It never occurred to me then but he built 2 of everything on this show.

0:36 And then Snow Said: "Okay, I'll pencil you in for January 22, 2005. Enjoy"

Fantastic little episode.

The framework and legs of the table look as if they were influenced by saw horses of the day. Very interesting piece to be sure. Thanks Norm for all your hard work and amazing tutelage, over the years!

Would imagine butterfly refers to the two supports

Nice piece.

How cool would it be to build all of Norm's projects and blog about it? (I know, I know, there's a movie about that but with Julia Child).

First full episode of Season 16 where he has a new wall mounted toolbox Norm created from Season 15! I don’t know what other new tools he has for the start of season 16!

I wish it was snowing now here in North Texas 🥵

"Snow all you want!" You're silly, Norm! This is gonna be a great season for me to enjoy all the episodes of, for the next few weeks! Enjoy the uploading!

I use routers and a router table often enough to think that i have it all figured out. Then a thirty year old New Yankee Workshop comes on and shows me something "new".😂😂😂😂. I have a homemade router table, but never thought about a simple pin to support the work piece as it touches a bit bearing. I know now what my next table mod will be.

What a Gorgeous French Side Table made of walnut. Love the tung oil on walnut. I built several pieces of wormy chestnut and put tung oil on them. Thank you Norm for all you have done for the craft and all the tips and tricks from a few decades of your expertise. I truly hope you are enjoying your retirement! RIP Russ

Excuse me, did we have nothing to say on shop safety? For that matter, what is the most important safety rule? We are totally adrift without knowing that!

Anyone catch the price on that tag?

Thank you for providing access to Norm’s wisdom This is invaluable to anyone interested in woodworking or other trades Underlying theme is safety Even if your project is different, he is the master on how to be safe

Drawer bottom should go the other way - otherwise it will bind when it expands.

I still have my little red wagon that was originally my father's that my grandfather had bought back in the 1960's, and had it restored about thirteen years ago. I really like the New Yankee Workshop, and it's provided a furniture making education.

Impressive router control on that draw front!

Wore out two pump screwdrivers when I was young
