Norm Abram is #1 on my tivo and they are set to never delete. Norm is a great teacher and role model. I love his show and teaching techniques. If I could afford it I would buy every show and plans and build every one of his projects. He maintains approachable project and skill set but keeps things just interesting enough to never get old show after show.
I wish he was my neighbor but since he is not - I will just have to try to live up to the standards he has set. You never know - someone just may be proud to call me their neighbor - even if they can hear my saw running at 2am.
He may not like his plaid shirts but he has definitely branded himself true master carpenter in the most honest fusion. Although figured with a few brands he still has his favorites and they make their appearances on the show regardless if its a competing product.
No one knew what a DIY / PBS powerhouse Russell Morash would have started 25+ years ago. But selecting Norm Abram as the Master Carpenter has to be one of the best decisions he ever made.
