PBS used to run a series called "the Woodwright's Shop" with Roy Underhill. Roy only works with tradional hand tools. He is quite the craftsman and I found him very intertaining. Lot of times he would be almost breathless at the end of the show.

Anyway I just found out he offers classes. http://www.woodwrightschool.com/. I think it would be cool to take one of his basic classes. Anyone else remember the show?

Yep, I remember. Back then, I was into wood working as well. I remember that goofy hat he wore. He's very talented & it would wear me out just watching. I'm surprised he hasn't had a coronary. I prefer power tools just the same. lol

I watched it all the time. I found his shop alittle fast paced and it seemed he was always looking for something he missed placed. But I perfer power tools.

I remember it, how he had that old retriever, I think it was a retriever, laying around and how if something didn't work just right he would just improvise and move on. I really enjoyed it.
