Ted DeMers creates rustic-inspired furniture using natural forms made very traditionally in a shop that depends on lumber locally harvested in rural Connecticut. State-of-the-art, stunningly modern, studio-furniture made in Scott Groves' upstate New York shop uses copper as a design element. Greg Johnson, treats us to a step-by-step demonstration of how he refinishes a modest drop-leaf table and ladderback chairs. Get a glimpse of one of the most precious aspects of woodworking, namely the gilding process for a completely hand-carved, custom-built grand piano. Also: * Graham Blackburn demonstrates the almost forgotten shooting board: an example of how traditional woodworking can be every bit as exact as modern machine methods and, for many people, more approachable, less expensive and safer! * Marc Adams talks about the tools you will need for excellent joinery, from scratch awl and pencil to router and biscuit jointer.
