So the wife and I were flipping through channels a few months ago and we came across Iowa Public Television. We watch it a lot for its educational shows for the kiddo, but this was prime time and it was a show called The Woodsmith Shop. Seemed boring and grandpa-like until we saw them fashion a gorgeous dresser out of a pile of sticks and kindling. Me, trying to be Mr Handy Man around the house began to take note! We were enthralled! Now every time we catch it on, we make sure we stop and watch it.  Don't believe me? Watch these magicians turn boring pieces of wood into super useful tools around the house. http://www.woodsmithshop.com/episodes/season9/908/ These guys are like that scene in Harry Potter in the Weasley's house where everything is just fixing itself and working perfectly, except with wood tools. http://www.woodsmithshop.com/episodes/season9/910/ They are talking to the camera about some important detail while still putting out flawless pieces of wood with expert craftmanship right before your eyes! http://www.woodsmithshop.com/episodes/season9/904/ You can learn how to do pretty much anything from these guys. I've seen them take boring old Home Depot wood and turn it into beautiful cabinetry right before our eyes!The biggest downside is that they have a tens of thousands of dollars worth of equipment at their disposal, so you're not going to be able to match everything. But you can certainly get started and learn a lot of cool tips and tricks from these guys! Maybe even become a Woodworking Magician yourself! Unbeknownst to us until the final rolling credits, this show is shot, filmed, and produced right in Gods Favorite, DES MOINES, IOWA! Be sure to check it out on your local PBS station, its really quite entertaining and informative to see these masters at work!

Lol the PR departments of power-tool and lumber companies really have fashioned rural masculinity into the most valueless thing. I didn't watch the video, just saying . These pathetic fucks, they whiney and moan about the coastal elites and then kneel down in front of their TeeVees, unscrew their heads and let the ad-men tell em what to think. The result.. it isn't pretty! To sell to the young the power-tool companies should make appeals to bernie-style soft socialism. Remind the viewer than the Good Person of Today is always in the process of Building. You can toss in some revolting "maker" poo poo lingo in there and you got their balls in your hand!

Someone linked me a Good Video of how to put wood together without glue that looked like it was from 1986 but PBS or whoever made it DMCA'd it. Joinery, I guess it's called? Okay, that's my story, God bless.
