handsaws, manufacturing
(12-2-04)... hope y'all catch 'em!
I happen to know the guy who is producing these shows (but not the cutie who acts as hostess, sigh...)
If you guys have a suggestion (that does not involve the hostess) I'd be glad to pass them on.
Regards, Tom.

She is awesome, what a woman! I'd marry her in a...(if we mutually fell in love hehe!)
Chisels and handplanes and sharpening I think would be good subjects, showing it all being done, and history including back into ancient times too. Couldya-wouldya??? I wish I'd known about these shows, I could have recorded the one about hand saws :-(

Dude:
Do you think they spent all that money to only run them once?
Watch the listings. Go to the website.
Watch the sky.

I guess I am in really bad shape. I saw this post, and I actually thought about the show. There is one about sanders, and they talk about an old 3 wheel craftsman belt sander which is supposedly rare. Well I bought one at a garage sale for $3.00. I recorded the show, and about a month later, I bought an old PC belt sander also on the show for $20.00. Go ahead and make fun of me!
I think they ran them twice today, just repeated the series back to = back.

They were on TiVo when I looked to see what today's catch was. I saw the one on handplanes earlier. Not bad. I know a little more that I wanted to know, than I did before, an unusual instance with modern television.
Tawm, you can pass on a 'well done!' from at least one of us.

Tivo is a neat doodad!

I saw the one about adjustable wrenches last night. Mostly, it's the Ridgid 14". Cast in PA, finished in OH. The hostess can tighten my nuts anytime. Joe

I liked the one they had on the hand drill, why Decker had a S&W .357 on the kitchen table, while him and Black where drinking/talking I don't know, but there's where the design came
Lends new meaning to the old bad guy declaration, "I'm a gonna drill = ya!" LOL!

That it is. I don't watch much TV and it doesn't impress me enough to remember when something is on. With the TiVo, I don't have to remember.
My impression, and I don't remember where I got it from, was that they getting lit because they were having business problems. The revolver may have been Plan B.

Yeah, isn't it great? There's _always_ what I want to watch, ready to be watched. It even found Roy Underhill for me, said "Hey, you'll probably want to be seeing this based on your other recording preferences".
there is that
How about a show on lathes.
