That was really interesting Brian. As an architect, I particularly liked watching the house construction. Great find.

Brian, thanks for posting this interesting old video. I have to be careful about calling something old, since I was born in 1942. Did anyone notice that some of the power tools shown looked like they could be off the shelf today?

It was the good ol' days. I like the oscillating spindle sander.

Nice post.

That was a mighty big router. I wouldn't want to lug it around all day.
