Watching TV…
One reason that you might be reading my blog is that you
like making stuff- it’s always interesting to see what other craftspeople do
and to know that it’s just not you who’s mad! There seems to be a plethora of
reality TV shows where various stuff from cakes to rat rods are made. Many of
them show the main protagonists getting frustrated and swearing a lot;
presumably this is what has been deemed necessary to attract viewers! And there
some, where making process is more important, these are our favourites-
Sin City Motors: follows the guys at Welderup building rat
rods.
Forged in Fire: a competition for bladesmiths making a variety
of weapons.
Café Racer Naked Speed; various bike builders, building café
racers.
Enjoy!

I've been waiting for a show that does woodworking in this format. It would be a lot of fun in an Master Chem format in which they had different durations to make things of different complexities.
