I was 14 ..yes years old. In my first woodworking class in high school in Oklahoma.
I actually made a cedar chest....and I still have it.
I sometimes go back and look at my handywork, and marvel that it never fell apart.
After almost 50 years, the inside still smells so aromatic of cedar.
Now on to Norm!
I live in one of the largest cities in the world. Los Angeles. You would think that NORM's show would still be showing, but it stopped long ago.
I not only watchedm, but taped, and saved his shows, so I could use them as reference. Then bought plans.
His guidance helped me create my first workshop, and then many happy days making Norm's projects, and then mine.
My happiest project was making a STICKLEY reproduction of a dining room table. No nails. and everything fit together well.

I missed NOrm before now, but at least I have some DVD's, tapes, and plans that I make reference to.
Unfortunately, due to a bad allergy to dust, Ihad to stop wood working until I could find a way around it., but have.

Thanks Norm for all you have given us, the public. We all admire and respect your devotion to a very rewarding experience using wood wisely and carefully. God bless.
May the wind always be at your back.
