It's like Nascar for Woodworkers!


So it's like wannabes buying Pontiacs and driving like idiots on the
highway? Not sure I see the connection. ;~)



No it is like the 95% of NASCAR fans that watch a NASCAR race hoping for
their favorite driver to win and just itching to see the inevitable
crashes.
You don't know exactly when but you do know you are going to see a NASCAR
crash/Woodwright guy cut his finger.


I see...

The camera definitely distorts reality. Roy's hands look even more beat up
in person than they do on the air... On air it is only the most obvious
wounds and scars that are evident but in person the old scars are layered.
In person his suspenders and clothes are faded and his hat is frayed but on
the monitor the suspenders look bright red and his hat looks fine. The
camera does not distort his wit though!

That said, maybe Norm doesn't really use all that many brads and the
Timesaver isn't nearly as big as it appears on the monitor due to focal
plane flattening by the camera?
