Hosted by master carpenter Norm Abram, who is legendary for his woodworking skills, The New Yankee Workshop has guided millions of viewers through the hands-on process of furniture making.
Norm has been perfecting his woodworking skills since he was a boy, when he made wooden toys for his sister. Since then, he has also perfected the craft of teaching and inspiring others to make beautiful creations from wood. Working in a 936-square-foot workshop, Norm completes a typical show in two days. He does all the work himself, using an assistant only for cleanup and finishes. Each episode in the series offers step-by-step instructions for building furniture and other woodworking projects. A co-production of Morash Associates, Inc. and WGBH Boston, the series airs on PBS and DIY Network stations.
