Available plans include:

New Yankee Workshop Deluxe Router Station Plan & Video -- Here's Norm's latest New Yankee Workshop plan for a deluxe router station as seen on the popular PBS show The New Yankee Workshop. Plan features all the measured drawings and patterns you'll need. PLUS, step-by-step video will take you through the building process to ensure your project's success.

Plantation Shutters, New Yankee Workshop DVD -- Custom Plantation Shutters ordinarily cost a fortune, but Norm shows you how to make your own for an inexpensive price. He begins by building a selection of jigs for drilling holes, setting staples and mortising hinges. After machining the Basswood slats, he mounts them on a control rod and frames the assembly with poplar. The completed shutters are then painted and installed, resulting in smooth operation and a truly impressive appearance. Includes measured shop drawings.

Deck Chair Plan, Video and Hardware Kit -- This deck chair recaptures the era of luxury travel on grand ocean liners. With an easy-to follow New Yankee Workshop plan and video plus Rockler's exclusive hardware kit, building this project is smooth sailing!

The Library System, New Yankee Workshop DVD -- Who couldn't use more storage for books and display items? Recognizing the need for a good bookcase system that can be added to as needed, Norm designs a modular system that can be adjusted to go around existing windows and doors. Resembling expensive "custom" built-ins, the elements are actually built in the shop where cutting and routing large pieces of plywood and dealing with dust is easy. Norm gives helpful tips at every stage. Includes measured shop drawings.

Wall Paneling, New Yankee Workshop DVD -- See how easy it can be to create rich, three-dimensional paneled walls! To begin, Norm shows some wonderful examples of wall paneling techniques in a home restored several years ago by This Old House. At the simplest end of the spectrum, he shows how molding can be applied to a plain wall to create a paneled effect. Then he brings us into to the Workshop to show classic bead board paneling, raised panel systems and, finally, rich mahogany paneling using veneered plywood and solid custom moldings. Includes measured shop drawings.

The Poker Table, New Yankee Workshop DVD -- In this DVD, Norm sets out to design and build the ultimate Poker Table. The finished product is a clear winner, showcasing beautiful mahogany and seating eight players with recessed brass cup holders and a chip well for every player. Norm mates the spacious octagonal top with a sturdy eight-sided pedestal. Instead of the traditional felt covering, he chooses a state-of-the-art synthetic fabric that offers much-improved resistance to pilling and wear. Includes measured shop drawings.

Old Pine Dry Sink, New Yankee Workshop DVD -- With simple lines and a rustic design that emphasizes its traditional functionality, this piece will blend in well with any country decor. Based on an authentic dry sink from Arlington House, once home to Robert E. Lee, this historic piece was found among many everyday objects that were used by the 63 slaves on the estate. Norm builds this version out of recycled pine and lines it with brilliant copper. Includes measured shop drawings.
