The safety speech included video of an operation on the router table (finger slip).

For the only time that I remember since the safety speech started, Norm didn't “tap-tap” when reminding the viewer to wear these, safety glasses—he was cleaning them as he reminded.

Field trip was to Concord Museum, Concord, Massachusetts.

Norm was also visited by Matt Burak, of Classic Designs, a vendor of pre-shaped wooden legs for furniture projects.
