Again and again
Your face reminds me of a bleak future
Despite the absence of hope
I give you this sacrifice




I'm sorry that you don't and never will have an Ikea in Iowa.

Maybe take a trip up to Minnesota and check it out? You might actually discover what a real city looks like!

op wants to talk about magic in woodworking, and i'm willing to go along with that, but roy underhill does what he does without electricity, and there's something facinating about that.

Someone linked me a Good Video of how to put wood together without glue that looked like it was from 1986 but PBS or whoever made it DMCA'd it.

Joinery, I guess it's called?

Okay, that's my story, God bless.

Was it a Japanese video? Japanese woodworking dudes are goddamned wizards

So the wife and I were flipping through channels a few months ago and we came across Iowa Public Television. We watch it a lot for its educational shows for the kiddo, but this was prime time and it was a show called The Woodsmith Shop. Seemed boring and grandpa-like until we saw them fashion a gorgeous dresser out of a pile of sticks and kindling. Me, trying to be Mr Handy Man around the house began to take note!

We were enthralled! Now every time we catch it on, we make sure we stop and watch it.



Don't believe me? Watch these magicians turn boring pieces of wood into super useful tools around the house.

http://www.woodsmithshop.com/episodes/season9/908/

These guys are like that scene in Harry Potter in the Weasley's house where everything is just fixing itself and working perfectly, except with wood tools.

http://www.woodsmithshop.com/episodes/season9/910/

They are talking to the camera about some important detail while still putting out flawless pieces of wood with expert craftmanship right before your eyes!

http://www.woodsmithshop.com/episodes/season9/904/

You can learn how to do pretty much anything from these guys. I've seen them take boring old Home Depot wood and turn it into beautiful cabinetry right before our eyes!The biggest downside is that they have a tens of thousands of dollars worth of equipment at their disposal, so you're not going to be able to match everything. But you can certainly get started and learn a lot of cool tips and tricks from these guys! Maybe even become a Woodworking Magician yourself!

Unbeknownst to us until the final rolling credits, this show is shot, filmed, and produced right in Gods Favorite, DES MOINES, IOWA!

Be sure to check it out on your local PBS station, its really quite entertaining and informative to see these masters at work!
