Regardless of how you feel about his work methods and tool choices, you can’t deny the influence he has had on the woodworking community. I used to even watch Norm before I knew the difference between a pin and a tail. And its guys like Norm that paved the way for a goober like me to create our show. So here’s a big thank you to someone who I consider to be one of the greats: Norm Abram. This will make it all the more special when I break out the Halloween Norm-O-Lantern this year.
