Others have pointed out Norm Abrams TV shows, web site, etc. However, to
read
between the line of your question - in this group Norm is alluded to (by
calling
someone a "Normite") as the promoter of any and all power tools as the
best way
to work wood. A person of an opposite persuasion - i.e. one who prefers
hand
tools - can be referred to as a "Neander". There is, of course, also a
middle
ground...

What is this middle ground you speak of??

For example, this Saturday, Roy, the Neander of the Neanderers, used some
sort of machine called a Treadle saw, I think; foot powered, but definitely
a mechanical machine!
