Asa Christiana, an editor at Fine Woodworking magazine, recently interviewed Tommy about the new show produced by WGBH in Boston: Rough Cut–Woodworking with Tommy Mac. I’m getting excited.
I think Tommy’s doing it right; staying in his own backyard for the first season to spend some time with some of the best woodworkers in the country who live in the Northeast, then moving out in the second season (he mentions a possible trip to California to explore Greene & Greene furniture).
While the show highlights period furniture, the projects they’ll do in the shop concentrate on just a few elements of high end furniture that anyone can master with a little practice.
Haven’t checked to see WUNC-TV will be carrying it in October. What a disappointment if they don’t!
