I've taped The New Yankee Workshop and the rest of the home improvement lineup for decades. My kids grew up watching what they call "The Hammer Shows" and as toddlers referred to Norm (and Steve and Dean) as if they were characters in their own lives. Many, many ideas, tips and techniques have come from watching NYW over the years and it has fueled my tool addiction - Lee Valley Tools should have given Norm a kickback. Of course I don't have a shop like Norm but I have many tools that the average female recreational woodworker wouldn't have and have even designed & built a new kitchen for my parents' lake house. Woodworking has taken a back place to my career and raising my kids for the last few years but I still faithfully watch "The Hammer Shows" every week and relish the opportunity to spend time in my shop. Thanks Norm!!
