    We always used to laugh at the $20,000+ workshop of tools used by Norm Abrams in This Old House.

    Now a friend of mine has a sig. other who must keep busy to be happy. He did a huge amount on their home and, when they needed a big long dining room table, built one of mahogany. But he is the exception rather than the rule.

    I always used to laugh at Norm spending an afternoon building "a special jig" so he could drill six holes in ten minutes. Then again, no one is watching me drill holes on national television.
