New Yankee Workshop Episode 912

In this episode, building a greenhouse (part two of a two part project), Norm used the following tools:

• Angle Wright A30 miter gauge
• Bessey K-Body clamps
• Bessey GRZ Super-Grip clamp
• Bosch 1584 jig saw
• Chisels
• Claw hammer
• Combination square
• Dado blade (stacked)
• Dado insert
• Dead blow hammer
• Delta 17-900 drill press
• Delta 33-890 12" radial arm saw
• Delta 34-182 tenoning jig
• Drill 'n Drive bits
• Hand saw
• Hitachi DS10DV cordless drill
• Porter-Cable 693 plunge router
• Porter-Cable 42234 cornering chisel
• Porter-Cable 9118 power plane
• Porter-Cable 840 cordless drill
• Porter-Cable 59381 hinge mortising jig
• Senco SFN40 finish nailer
• Speed square
• Unifence
• Unisaw
• Oak insert insert
• Insert, red
• Utility knife
• Adjustable wrench

Items in bold represent the first appearance of that particular tool.

The Hitachi cordless drill and the combination square were in view and clearly had been used, but they weren't actually demonstrated in this episode.

I initially thought Norm used a modified kitchen knife as a putty knife. On reviewing the higher quality PBS episode, I realize it was just a putty knife. I might not create a file for that.

Although HGTV typically only cut about two minutes out of each episode when they aired them (and DIY is even more brutal), either I missed some stuff or these four tools were casualties, because I didn't have them on the list: Angle Wright miter gauge, Bosch jig saw, 34-182 mortising jig, oak insert.

Norm seemed to have a touch of laryngitis in this project (both 911/2111 and 912/2112). I remember he had a bad case on a This Old House episode once, but I can't remember the project. I wonder if it was the same time frame?

Norm used a plain board clamped to the Unifence as a sacrificial fence.

The safety speech included video of a crosscut operation on the radial arm saw—oblique view.

No field trip this episode.
