Norm Abram This Old House

Abram took a construction job in 1979, building a small barn in the backyard of the television producer Russell Morash, the creator of public television’s This Old House.

Impressed by Abram’s small scrap pile and efficient work habits, Morash invited Abram to help with the renovation of a rundown Victorian house in Boston’s historic Dorchester section, with a WGBH camera crew recording the process for the first This Old House project with host Bob Vila.

Russell Morash planned to launch a spinoff of This Old House called The New Yankee Workshop, in 1988, and he needed a convenient place to videotape, so they used the shop in the small barn that Abram built in 1979 in Morash’s backyard. The shop’s layout and equipment were mostly Abram’s preferences. The New Yankee Workshop first aired in 1989 with Abram as the host

Norm Abram Adirondack Chair

Former Popular Woodworking editor Steve Shanesy builds an Adirondack chair alongside Abram in the New Yankee Workshop.

“I’ve become keenly aware throughout the years that patience allows time for opportunities to come along that might never have been possible. Such is the case with this Adirondack chair built in The New Yankee Workshop with Norm.

Although projects similar to this one are rather common fare for most woodworking magazines, Popular Woodworking hasn’t offered one to readers for more than 10 years. The project has been discussed, of course, but for one reason or another, it never happened.

Then one day the phone rings and a representative of “The New Yankee Workshop” asks if we’d like to work with Abram to build the most popular project ever shown on the show. Abram would build a chair and give it away as a promotion for the show and I’d build a duplicate as a project for the Popular Woodworking readers. Perfect!

OK, some of you are certainly wondering, “What is it like working with Abram right there in The New Yankee Workshop?” So let’s get that part out of way. The most surprising thing was just how “Norm-al” it was if you’ll pardon the pun.

When you pare away all the myths and misinformation, Abram is just a very likeable, easy-going, hard-working, down-to-earth woodworker in a reasonably well-equipped, but not extravagantly so, woodshop. He was very much at home there. And it’s not a TV studio set with woodworking equipment, but a real woodshop. How fancy? I’ve seen far more extravagant shops belonging to home woodworkers than this one.

Working with Abram was fun, to be sure. But I spent years working in commercial shops building hundreds of projects while working with others. And while Abram is a celebrity, his pleasant personality and easygoing manner made me feel right at home, too.”
