I saw somewhere recently that you can purchase the complete set of DVD's of al the shows, Approx. $160 if I remember right, Amazon.com maybe??????

Williamsburg is fun, we were there shortly after the New Blacksmith Shop was opened. We had been there the year before when they were just starting the foundation. We watched the progress every day on the Web cam they have on the sight, quite interesting, including them putting Radiant Heat in the Concrete floor under the bricks! Plenty of Iron work all around the place to see and study. A good camera, extra batteries, spare memory card needed. And Click away! Unless your 30 you can't see all in one day, we try 2-3 when we get there but it's 500 miles for us to get there. There a number of forges there besides the shop. X the gunsmith shop with back to back forges in separate rooms, also the wheelwright shop where the Smiths were operating out of when they built the new shop.

Since 1992 I have been involved with two new structures with radiant Heat and it's the only way to go. We did a Firestation in '92 in Vermont and none have been built since in our area without radiant. We also built a new house in '03 in Vermont with radiant and when we finished part of the basement we glued down 2x6 onto the floor and ram set near support posts that we knew didn't have tubing, worked good so far. The big red power hammer in the picture might concern me, only because I've heard of heavy vibrating machines causing broken tubes?? Haven't seen it personally just heard?? Good Luck with your shop looks great. Notownkid
