Whenever I see an episode coming on I'll stop and watch it.
The show that isn't a half hour commercial! :)

That was fun to watch. I've taken one class with him and he is such a great guy - one of the nicest people I've ever met.

Thanks for posting.

Glad to see his shop is as cluttered as mine.

I smiled when he pulled a cardboard box of 'stuff' out of his router table cabinet.

Awesome! I've been waiting for months for The Spags to post that video.

David Marks also has a new DVD on the market. There should be a link to it on TWW page.

Big is right...it is a Minimax....I spent a weekend in David's studio about 4 years ago and he had just received the bandsaw...pretty awsome tool.

I laughed as well to see the "unfinished" projects and things scattered around the shop. Didn't make me feel so bad! :D

David is always inspiring. My "bucket list" has a class at his studio. Love the cardboard box under the router table and the band-aid on his finger:D.

I laughed at the router table bit too. Maybe I shouldn't worry about storage in my shop!! :p I need to watch it again...the 36" BS I thought looked like a Mini Max, but I thought he said it was something else. 22" resaw! WOW!!
I was surprised to see how "segmented" his shop is. I would have expected a little more wide open spaces. Nice tour. Jim.

David's shop is segmented because it was built as a horse stable. He converted it to a woodworking shop, then added on later. The result is a kind of "haunted shack" layout, now that you mention it.

That is a great video. It's like Merlin the Magician taking us on a tour of his workshop. The only thing missing is a bubbling cauldron. :p
