I mean, that's like The New Yankee Workshop.

Those end tables I posted the other day are fairly similar to what Norm built in Season 1 Episode 5. The episode is 28 minutes long complete with introduction, the scene where we go to a museum and look at the original, and end credits. So it feels like he smashes them together in 20 minutes flat. (and/or that it's an afternoon project, that he knocks it out in the course of a Saturday).

According to their website, "a typical project took Norm 2 days." Which I take to mean the photography for the shop section takes that long. Because in the above episode, he's already milled all the stock (if applicable), glued up the table legs and glued up the table top. Oh, and he had one there already finished he kept referring to.

It took me three weeks to build a pair of them from rough lumber.
