- Norm completes the work on one of the most ambitious projects ever attempted at The New Yankee Workshop. Brilliantly conceived and executed, Norm's intimate octagonal, screened gazebo reflects several popular Victorian styles and features a cedar deck, clever, collar-tied rafters, and a unusual tapered, cedar-shingled roof, the project's most challenging element. Norm offers useful tips on how to build screens as he creates the screen door and panels for his gazebo. The final decorative touches are applied as the Victorian latticework is assembled and mounted and the copper finial takes its place atop this storybook garden pavilion.
Season: 7 | Episode: 11
Original Air Date: March 18, 1995

"Now that you know how it's done, I hope you'll build one." Not a chance, but I appreciate your confidence in me.
I remember watching this back in the 90s, I started to build mine shortly afterwards, I'm just finished the framework, now for the shingles.... at this rate I should be finished mine in the year 2048
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
It’s beautiful, Norm!!
As this was filmed in 1995, it would be interesting to go back and see how the gazebo has stood the test of time.
I bet everything is still intact except the lattice. That littace was probably dry and brittle inside 5 years.
i miss watching norm here in the uk he`s given me so much insperation over the years so a big thank you norm
@@almorgan68 hello 👋 yes Norm is a national treasure 👍
@@TGC32 I put some lattice panels on my front porch it's gotta be almost twenty years, now. Still going strong.
Watching NYW is like therapy for me.
Good 👍 👍 👍
Very nice!
I absolutely marvel at the level of detail & craftsmanship.
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL JOB NORM, LOVE IT‼️‼️ Vinny 🇺🇸
I used to despise when I'd walk in the living room and my mother would be watching this show.....now a days I can't get enough....wish I wasn't so smart back then ! Sorry mom !!!!
Norm sure does love his biscut jointer lol
If there's any one tool in my shop that I think of Norm whenever I use it, that would be the biscuit joiner
better but prohibitively expensive for most average people@cerberus2881
all them biscuits is makin me hungry...
Norm is "long retired" and has been my woodworking hero for my lifetime. I pray that WGBH and You Tube are reimbursing Norm for this "Official" New Yankee Workshop site. I have been waiting for this over the last seven years of witnessing the You Tube Phenomenon. Norm had some "guest" appearances with "This Old House" ~ Nice guys but nothing like the work of say.. Matt Risinger (The Build Show) out of Austin Texas. ~~~ from the Epsom Traffic Circle, New Hampshire.
The site wasn't owned by Norm, although they implied so in the show. The site was and still is owned by the show's creator and executive producer, Russell Morash. The workshop is still there and you can find a relatively recent tour by Russell on TH-cam.
@@metalliqaz Maybe Norm should get a lawyer?
@@metalliqaz Just because the guy "owns the building" doesn't sanction him to re post the actual show with Norm's name and Picture. If Norm were the one with the introduction maybe OK but Norm is not an "Actor" here he is the "Artist" or "Craftsman." Norm "Owns the content" Morash is breaking copy-write law. Period.
@@stevenwarner7348 Uh, no. You have no idea what Norm’s NYW contract contains. Russ Morash was/is the producer and has been a television producer and Norm’s friend for a very long time and you can bet he isn’t doing anything to run afoul of copyright law. Willing to bet he owns the rights to it all. While Norm is not an “actor”, he is the performer, not the producer or creator of the show. I’m sure he collects residuals/royalties of some form depending on how the contract was structured, but I seriously doubt he is getting screwed by the official NYW TH-cam channel run by Russ Morash. He IS getting screwed by the random TH-camr’s that upload NYW videos they recorded off of television. Willing to bet Norm’s ass is more than covered in this case, so lighten up, Francis
@@stevenwarner7348 So you know the contract? I am pretty sure the copyrights do not belong to Norm. He was just the host and craftsman.
It would take me years to build that. Lol.
Will Norm be adding new content? Or will these be reruns of the show? Norm, you are missed. Stay safe and healthy.
This is the height of society right here. We've degraded since then. We all need to take notes.
Ok ❤️ good saw nice
Norm loved to make everything himself. But modern day, making your own lattice vs. buying pre-made 4'x8' panels $26-$30 U.S. might be wiser. Time needed to make the lattice jigs, cut each piece, erc.. The old: labor time+materials vs. parts/materials? Only the builder can decide which is best in each project. Making your own screens, is definitely a better choice.
👍
So. Much. Trim! Every little surface has another piece of trim. The whole gazebo is cedar shingles and TRIM!
Decmber 1995
😎
I bet the material cost for this gazebo have atleast tripled if not more since 95, when I was just 5yrs old!
Nope, lumber hasn't even doubled since the mid 90s.
That might have been true a couple years ago when lumber was peaking at nearly twice what it is today but not right now.
@@kkknotcool dimensional lumber is up by probably 30% but those cedar shingles I'm sure are significantly more nowadays
@@EricStrobel09 Probably not 3x and also not a big part of the total cost.
I mean it's probably only like 300-400 square feet even counting all that waste from the trimming you need to do.
So that's like $700, this has to be a 4 or 5 thousand dollar material bill.
We built a plain 2x4 framed 12 by 16 storage shed in 1999. Materials were $2000 then.
surprised he didn't paint butt ends of exterior boards.
I could see a gabled gazebo.
Is there anyway to remaster theses old 480p resolution to modern 1080 to 4k HD?
Not if the episodes were recorded on tape, as was popular in the '80s and '90s. You need a film source (like 35mm) to create such a digital transfer.
@@theglowcloud2215 We have turned our mid-90s VHS into 720p. Or do mean sth else with tape?
@@bowlchamps37 are you thinking of 720x480, maybe? Because VHS source resolution was not 720 vertical. I'm talking about film, not tape--like 35mm film. It's basically impossible to get a high quality transfer from VHS.
Some of the episodes are being run through AI upsampling. Not sure what their selection process is on which episodes get that treatment. Maybe those with the best original resolution. It does have some artifacts but overall seems like a win. I'll wager in another decade the AI upsampling tools will be markedly better still.
We like the gazebo, of course. We are also happy we have no need. It's way too much work for such a little thing.
