Hancock Shaker village is actually a cool place to visit.

The method Norm came up with for drilling all the holes and mortises at the correct angles is pretty impressive.

Thanks for finding these lost episodes and updating them on KZitem. I recall this Shaker chair project from the early 1990s - likely the reason I never invested in a lathe or doing turnings in my woodworking. I was lost then and today after seeing this video with the jigs. Norm, you are amazing in your craftsmanship and your precision. I thank you for your teachings over the decades and you bringing the woodworking hobby to my shop and family. I have completed and my family has enjoyed many of your New Yankee Workshop projects - without the investment in a lathe and supporting tools - not my thing I guess. Thank you Norm and Russ for these memories and bringing back New Yankee Workshop to KZitem.

It's always nice when a good show finds lost episodes. What causes them to become lost? There are many reasons, but for the New Yankee Workshop, there shouldn't be any.

Watched Norm way back in the day back when the new Yankee work shop started. I bet he would of loved all the new tools of today. Like the pantarouter, Norm is a great craftsman

Those jigs for the chair's legs were particularly ingenious with potentially many potential problems shows your skills, Norm.

I use power tools as much as possible, and I appreciate that Norm figured out how to do this with power tools, but as I watch this episode, I’m starting to think this project probably would’ve been easier with handtools. You could work slower, you could see the parts of the chair you’re cutting into, and and you can inmediately see if something’s off. We’re drillling holes and a few mortises here, not making crazy complicated joints. Come to think of it, I’m not sure why you couldn’t do most of this on a drill press without the jig. Mark out the legs and cut slowly.

“Go to a local high school or trade school and rent some time on their lathe” It’s sad how times have changed. Even if there was a trade school or HS with a lathe they most certainly wouldn’t rent time. Not where I live, at least.
