For a long time all I knew about David Marks was what I read here. I was
under the impression that when it came to neanders, DJM was second only to
Roy Underhill. Then my cable system added DIY network to its On-Demand
service. I finally got to watch one or two of Marks' shows and was amazed
to see him using some power tools Norm could only dream about. (For
example, I've never seen Norm make use of a multi-router like Marks uses.)

Nobody ever said otherwise. In fact, people have talked a lot about
his multi-router and his aircraft carrier jointer.

I think the point here is that Marks uses power tools when it's
necessary and he often shows alternatives to using them. Norm uses
power tools because they're there and if they weren't there, Norm
really wouldn't know what to do with himself.
