• Try square
• Unisaw
• Unifence
• Insert, oak insert

Items in bold represent the first appearance of that particular tool.

Norm used a plain board clamped to the Unifence as a sacrificial fence.

The clearly visible number on the rabetting plane sure looked like a “20” but a Stanley #20 looks nothing like it, whereas this plane is surely a #92. Fortunately, he uses it in another episode in which the number absolutely can be seen to be “92”.

The safety speech included video of a crosscut operation on the radial arm saw.

Norm added hearing protection to his safety advisory.

Field trip was to F. L. Wright Gallery, Tucson, Arizona.
