    This isn't something that I would have built. It isn't a period that really interested me.
    Norm did an awesome job on it. Seeing how it came together did spark interest in it. I have a new appreciation for this style of furniture. And I actually think I would enjoy making one.

    I love these "old" shows. A lot of them I saw (with a cup of coffee and a recliner involved) when they originally aired. Even now, I wish I had the space tools and talents to do the projects. What an amazing man and artist Norm Abram is! Thanks for sharing!

    Norm, you're one in a million. Not many with the set of skills you have.
    One of the projects you did that sticks in my mind the most is the Gazebo you built. You went into such great detail and built that as well as anyone who would build a fine home. No matter how big or how small the project you built it to perfection.

      @@RadioRich100 They upscaled the resolution of the video using a machine learning algorithm or what a lot of people call "AI" nowadays. These old episodes were never recorded in anything resembling HD. My point is the upscaling software did a really good job. The video quality is quite good and much easier to watch on a modern TV or monitor.

    I really enjoyed your show when you came out with it and was disappointed to see it go. Glad to see you up and running again. Norm...this piece is beautiful! Your detail looks great and that finish really brings it out. Sorry to see that Russ won't let you use his tools again...would love to see some new episodes. Com'on Russ, play nice and let him use your tools again.😊 (For those who don't understand my comment, I'm referring to the video released on 2/5/23 where "Norm stops by" .)

      Yah I was just thinking: how different would this TV show be today, where having a CNC machine in your shop is commonplace. So many Millennial/Gen-Z RUclipsrs nowadays making complex shapes in a small woodshop.

    • @ElectricGears
      @ElectricGears Год назад +1

      A laser cutter isn't really the right tool for that kid of job since it burns away the wood and you can't reliably control the depth. It's much more suited to cutting all the way through material. It's certainty something that could be done with a basic CNC router. A rotary axis would save time, but it could be indexed to cut all four sides in stages.

    • @idontthinkso666
      @idontthinkso666 Год назад

      ElectricGears is right--you'd need a Mike Meyers "Goldfinger" super power laser to "cut" legs, and you'd burn the wood, not cut it. CNC's would do this today.

  • @orionwarren4244

    All right, All right now. No commercials.. (And it doesn't look like it's filmed from a "TV set".... ). I will acknowledge an "improvement." But ~~~ Here's the rub. Among many. I still am so annoyed by the "Marketing" or let's say "Branding" of this. You've got "Norm Abram" there ~ that is good. But please please please separate Norm from the (TV shows). Brand this effort with something like "Norm Abram Woodworking." Or just "Norm Abram"... That's it. If the old guy wants to do a video and take credit for the TV shows maybe he could do a woodworking project in his "workshop" all the while talking about how inspirational Norm was. You are up to nearly 80 K subscribers and I guess that is positive the 12 K views for this post is not so bad. So this is better. Needs more work and sensitive attention. Norm should be introducing these himself. Seeing the (other) old guy is creepy and confusing. Somehow another analogous You Tube (content maker) is Bob Ross. (I can hear you grown) now from his family. But ~ Just Bob Ross. Watch one of these and learn 5.9 million subscribers and 3 to 4 million views in a couple of years. Please frame Norm's talent and effort in a positive way ~ separate from the TV show. Thank you.

      What in the world is wrong with you? I've never seen someone so committed to such utter nonsense completely devoid of any knowledge of what they're talking about. 58 comments on this channel, yammering on about copyright and lawyers and branding. The relationship between Russ and Norm is well established, along with the genesis and history of the show--information that's easily researched. Norm doesn't need you to protect him, he certainly doesn't owe you an introduction and if you don't agree with the way copyright law works, go complain to your congressperson.
