75- Wood Werks Supply, Inc.
Download High Resolution
Some of you may recall our visit to Ohio last spring. While we were there, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to visit a woodworking store that I had heard great things about: The Wood Werks Store in Columbus, OH. Pictures just can’t do this place justice! Wall to wall tools, lumber from floor to ceiling, and a Rockler store built-in! Amazing! Since this store is essentially a woodworkers playground, I thought it would be fun to give you a little tour. Wood Werks has also made great efforts to bring the magic of their retail location online. So you can now shop for all the latest and greatest tools and supplies at WoodWerks.com. And I can’t forget to mention Wood Werks’ Powermatic Custom program. Its a PM2000 on steroids!!

The title says it all. We drove all the way up to Petaluma, CA to deliver the gadget station to the one and only, Leo Laporte. We had the pleasure of hanging out in the TWiT Cottage where Leo records all of his shows, and streams them live at TwitLive.tv. And the coolest part is that the gadget station seems to have found a permanent home on the shelf behind Leo’s desk. Nicole and I were quite ecstatic to meet Leo. Mission accomplished!

Road Trip! I was originally convinced that the Gadget Station would call for knife hinges. But just for fun I decided to take a trip to my local Woodcraft to see what they might suggest. Well, surprise surprise! I discovered a hinge that I had never noticed before. The Soss Invisible Hinge. I actually like this hinge better and I think it will suit this application perfectly. I hope you enjoy this little review of common hinges with our friend Frank Galloway, at the Chandler, AZ Woodcraft Store.

54 - Interview With Chris Schwarz
Download High Resolution
This past April, we had to good fortune of visiting with the folks at Popular Woodworking in Cincinnati, OH. We got a bunch of footage at the Pop. WW’ing headquarters (including a quick interview with Glen Huey) as well as a tour of Chris Schwarz’s home. We capped the day off with an interview with Chris in his own shop. The unfortunate news is that one of our tapes had a fatal flaw in it. So the only recoverable footage was this interview with Chris. Fortunately, it was a very fun interview and I think you will like it. Be sure to check out Chris’s Woodworking Magazine Blog as well as his Lost Art Press Blog. And while you’re at it, check out Popular Woodworking Magazine for some great woodworking content.
43 - A Chat with Kaleo Kala
High Resolution Version
Many of you might already be familiar with Kaleo. He runs KaleosWorkshop.com and does the This Week in Wood Podcast. He is also recent graduate of the Australian School of Fine Furniture. And now that he’s back in the states he’s gearing up to start his own woodworking business. I was able to spend a whole afternoon with Kaleo and it was like hanging with an old friend. I decided to do a brief interview with him (this video) as well as have him show us a few rudimentary hand tool techniques (next video). Enjoy!
