I miss Holmes on Holmes.  I don't mind Holmes Inspection in a pinch...I guess when you're as busy as Mike Holmes you can't do everything.  On that note, I prefer Disaster DIY...Brian's hysterical.  Like Justin, watching Renovation Realities is like watching a train-wreck happen....I know it's gonna be bad, I know people are gonna get hurt....but i can't help myself, i NEED to see it

home time
I don't watch nuthin' since Norm left!!!!

I still watch the best, Norm via his website, but I seem to pick up a lot of ideas and tips from the Woodsmith show. I have especially picked up several saftey tips from them.

Watching New Yankee rerun their old shows on the web is interesting in watching how the methods, tools and safty have changed since he started. I saw one a week or two ago where Norm's one hand was way too close to the table saw blade for my comfort. I don't think he does that now.

And he still is on This Old House.

Man vs. Food.

Over Your Head, Don't Sweat It, and Diaster DIY.  It's good to see others who take on more than they're ready for!

New Yankee Workshop was my favorite, I am going to miss it.  I like them all.
In the early years of 'cable TV', there was a popular show called "Comic Strip" and on network TV, one of the most popular shows was "Star Search".  In an effort to capitalize on the popularity of both shows, they combined them into one hour-long show entitled...wait for it..."Comic Strip Search" .   Bah-dum-bum!  I'm here all week, folks! :)
Diaster DIY is really good, lol!

  As far as "wood" shows go, I like them all: new yankee,  woodsmith, rough cut, american woodworking, and the weird guy dressed in overalls and sports a curly afro who uses mostly hand tools. Those shows are on the Create channel. I learn something every time  I see an episode

 The home improvement shows I watch are on the DIY network. All crashers, man caves, holmes, renovation reality...

I do too. A perfect rainy Sunday is watching home shows, lol!

Ralph, I watch as many as I can find and have time for.  I enjoy the DIY shows as there is a number to pick from.  Since alot of them are re-runs it is hard to find new ones at times.  I, like you, still enjoy This Old House but it is missing alot since Norm Abrams is not there and they have ceased to run shows with remodels of  homes.  Still a good show with alot of good information.  Another is Holmes on Homes.  My all time favorite was the shows, The New Yankee Work Shop, Norman is got the be the best teacher that has graced the tv land

New Kreg 720Pro

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.

I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.

First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…
