MLMartin Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Mr Special I do not think we get to watch this. I am in Louisville Ga and there is lame football all night long on Georgia PBS I guess education fell way to people smacking there heads together. Anyone know where I could watch this other than TV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwilson645 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I had to scroll all the way until 2am to find it on my DirecTV guide so keep looking. It was also going to be replayed this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockstar.esq Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 There's a PBS application available for Kindle Fire's that allows you to enter your zip code and watch anything they've posted online. Perhaps they'll include this one since they're already promoting it online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quarry Dog Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 It says on the website it is supposed to be playing tonight, but when I scroll through the cable all I can find is "Craft in america: Textiles" for around 3AM tomorrow morning, and then "Craft in america: Crossroads" the next morning. I guess I'll just have to keep an eye out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will. K. Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 According to TV Guide on my antenna TV it is listed on the 3rd channel public television channel for 8pm tonight and again at 5pm on Sunday (38-3, they call it the Wisconsin channel) I couldn't find it listed on the wtp website though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K. Bryan Morgan Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Looks like they are not showing this in Fairbanks... all I got to say about that is .... PHOOHEY!!!! :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 Looks like they are not showing this in Fairbanks... all I got to say about that is .... PHOOHEY!!!! :( Not too surprising Bryan. An educational channel in . . . Fairbanks!. <snicker> If your provider is as efficient as the one here you just can't believe the online listing, heck you can't even count on it to be wrong. PBS has been advertising it between shows for a couple days now, might give it a gander. I'm keeping my fingers crossed airing hasn't been messed up here. After the airing you should be able to download it off the PBS website. I have a number of Nova and Woodwright's Shop episodes but not the really early ones when Roy was at Williamsburg and working on projects with Peter Ross. Ironing the log sledge was a favorite of mine from years back. <sigh> Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K. Bryan Morgan Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 I love the episodes with Peter Ross on the Woodwrights Workshop. I really liked the one about the upset corners. He really explained the process well. To bad he's not a member here. He would be a great asset to our community. Well I'll see if I can find the episode online tomorrow or next week now that its going to be aired. Thanks for the heads up though. Its great to see our craft getting some air time. Even if it is not airing in all markets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've downloaded 2 or 3 of the old blacksmithing ones as well as a couple of the timber framing ones. I'm not familiar with that episode however. If you locate it, let me know so I can add it to my list to pick up some time. http://shopclass.popularwoodworking.com/c-54-all-woodwrights-shop-channel-videos.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Rabbit Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Thanks for the video like guys. Not having tv I was disappointed when I found out about the program. It was awesome. I found the silver smithing quite interesting. ~The Mad Rabbit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arkie Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 The silversmithing was very interesting, but there was little regarding blacksmithing, sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njanvilman Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 The silversmithing was very interesting, but there was little regarding blacksmithing, sadly. I just watched the episode. I totally agree with arkie. Someday the producers of these "craft documentaries" will be more creative in finding blacksmiths doing both traditional and non-traditional work. Not to belittle Albert Palley, he is a giant in the field. But even as he said, most of his work is just fabrication now, not "forging". Overall, I was dissapointed in the episode.

SmoothBore Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Yes, sadly, ... and predictably, ... PBS chose to miss the point, ... in preference for yet another elitist's flight of fancy ..... And yes, ... the Silversmithing was the best part. i waited the whole way through for the "FORGE" part, ..... and I'm still waiting. :angry: . .

After the leadoff silversmithing, I just fast forwarded looking for traditional blacksmithing...never saw any, so at least I didn't have to watch the whole thing. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
