- Wyoming antique dealer Terry Winchell wants everybody to know about the remarkable work of furniture designer Thomas Molesworth. In the 1930s, from his base in Cody, Wyoming, Molesworth created "Cowboy"-style furnishings made from peeled Douglas fir logs, stretched red leather, and routed out images of Indian teepees, animal tracks, and shooting irons. Dwight Eisenhower was a fan of this particularly distinctive dude ranch furniture, as was Thomas Yawkey (once the owner of Norm's beloved Red Sox). Today, Molesworth is very collectible, as Norm finds out when he visits Winchell at his operation in Jackson Hole. The ultimate New England craftsman brings a little bit of Western sensibility into his Yankee workshop when he decides to take on a Molesworth-style sideboard for his own collection.
This is an HD version created using an AI program.

Just want to thank the NYW for setting up a TH-cam channel. I watched them all when they were new and am happy to watch them all again.
I kinda wish this would have been a 2 part episodes
Norm truly changed my life. It’s because of him that I got into woodworking. I recorded every episode of The New Yankee Workshop, and watched them over and over again…… I made many of his pieces. My children still have the rocking horses I made for them. Thank you Russ and Norm for producing these and for making them available once again.
I watch them over and over too. Before with VCR recordings on youtube. Now it's from the very men that brought us this show.
Gosh I remember ole Norm routing those faceframes with his Dremel Router way back when and thought it likely required some off-camera practice to get the continuous patterning down. My having done 300 wooden jewelry/humidor boxes for international clientele over the last 30 years and using Norms creative inspiration with my grinder and a flapper sanding disc, I similarly experimented with waving my later box carcases to produce a dynamic fluidity to otherwise straight box flanks. Thanks Norm - many years later!
You're welcome 👍
Love the old western designs. Thanks for posting.
I am more impressed than ever with Norm's versatility and craftsmanship in this cabinet.
Really love the fact the intro really explained and went into detail about the history of the furniture, I just wish that the show had been made longer as the build part of the programme seems a little rushed with not as much of the details were used to from Norm, still love the episode though keep them coming !!
The style is not my thing but even so I love the intricate detail on those Molesworth pieces. And Norm's "drop it or I'll drill ya" skit at the beginning was fantastic!
These make my heart ache in a good way. Like waiting for Santa. 🎅
Norm makes this look as easy as building a bird house 😊 Love ya Norm and Russ thank you so much for airing these .
The AI-HD looks great. What a nice adaptation of this new technology.
The video quality is much better than other channels. I love watching Norm!
I made this one,really enjoyed the process. Still have it.
Built this one as well!
I have seen many AI upscaled of videos from 90s and 2000s and this turned out really good. I am impressed! Kudos to whoever did this - Great job!
Always love the upscalled small print text such as the text on the router at 13:58 - other then that (like the on any ai enhanced) its not apparent.
The man was a master! is there any doubt? awesome reproduction!
Cowboy Up! Now into Season 19 circa 2007. A few years have passed since the last NYWS posting. I missed the New Yankee Workshop after moving from the East Coast back to the West Coast in 2000. Looking forward to watching the 2000’s episodes in the series to catch up on all I missed like this excellent Molesworth project. Here in Paso Robles California we still honor the Cowboy Code and traditions of the old West. Wine country has taken over but it blends beautifully with our cowboy heritage. If I ever show this project to my wife it will be number 1 on the Honey Do List. This is an excellent tutorial on carcass work and custom finishing with the “worm holes”, relief routing, lacquer finishing and leatherwork. Fully enjoyed the plywood construction techniques addition of pocket screw joinery along with the high speed rotary tool demonstrated in this tutorial. Noted that in 2007 Norm is back to the Biesemeyer Fence on the Delta Unisaw - I prefer the extruded aluminum Unisaw fence used in the later 1990s still in use making sawdust today. Thanks to Russ and 2023 Crew for bring this all back on TH-cam. Looking forward to catching up on all of these later 2000+ seasons!
I'm actually doing this very project in my small workshop.
I really like this added Ending rework.
The lodge would be my next house when I get rich. hehe. That place is gorgeous!
I always have wondered how many times Norm had a nail shootout of a piece when he pins them. And how did he fix it?
Also thank you for sharing these videos. Norm has brought the joy of woodworking to so many
Oh yes, what a difference Norm, 1080p, Happy Holidays to you. Javi G.
I watched this when it was brand new. On Tv with Cable and everything.
I was expecting more of season 9 but nice to see s19. Please keep your playlists updated !
We went out of order because we have an update video coming on Friday. Guess which project Russ talks about? 🤣
this was the same project Norm talked about during the Insider tour! I'm guessing this one is a favorite of the team@@newyankeeworkshop
Norm Abram shows you how to make Western style furniture on the New Yankee Workshop.
U did more amazing work!!
Nice replication.
I like it
Is it still there?
Fancy.
👍

Before we use any power tools, let’s take a moment to talk about shop safety. Be sure to read, understand, and follow all the safety rules that come with your power tools. Knowing how to use your power tools properly will greatly reduce the risk of personal injury. And remember this: There is no more important safety rule, than to wear these, safety glasses.
I am a longtime fan of the show, and I love Norm’s craftsmanship and his desire to continually explore the many facets of furniture design. HOWEVER, this detour into the work of Thomas Molesworth was a trip he should have skipped. Everything about this episode was wrong, starting with Molesworth’s cultural appropriation of Native Americans. I realize this episode aired about 17 years ago, around 2006, but Norm’s crass reference to “Indians” is inexcusable.
Setting aside the infomercial for Terry Winchell’s Fighting Bear Antiques store, the visit to Bear Lodge was a celebration of conspicuous consumption and white privilege. A ridiculous second home for the wealthy 1%, maybe used for a few weeks a year? The house was filled with artifacts of white man’s pathetic desire to kill. And conquer his natural world, not celebrate it. Dead stuffed animals, the skins of flayed animals on the floors and walls. And cultural appropriation galore! “We killed off all them Injuns, so let’s make cute little stylized images of the teepees on our cabinet doors.” This “lodge” and Molesworth’s furniture and this episode was wrong on every level. Russ and Norm, sometimes you can’t see the forest for the trees. Not all furniture design is worth celebrating, and this was one of those.
While I agree with your critique, taken to its logical conclusion one would have to condemn the entire series including This Old House as it situates itself at the heart of the American colonial project with a bunch of Yankee New Englanders reproducing colonial furniture, colonial architecture, and unequal materialist class relationships on a "public" educational TV station that is America's response to the 20th century global socialist project. In other words, this series and its sister programs are wholly American. I wouldn't blame Norm or Russ, but the systemic context within which these flawed but extremely rich-in-knowledge programs were developed. If it were me I would provide a contextual educated disclaimer that acknowledge your critiques of cultural appropriation and historical revisionism, rather than "cancel" the shows creators, the episode, or the series in its entirety. One can't deny the quality and complexity of the Molesworth furniture and lodge architecture despite its ethically questionable history.
I will add that after PBS sold off This Old House and Russ retired in 2005, the producers did more than occasionally take the jingoism to nauseating levels rather than just focusing on education and craftsmanship.
All that said, I love Norm.
Wow. You’ve got some issues to work through. You’re projecting way more into this video than is there. Much of the imagery and artwork of natives Americans I’ve seen or owned is sold by them or is out of respect for them. We can all respect and share in each other’s cultures and become better for it. The imagery of native Americans displayed everywhere in the west helps keep the knowledge and culture alive and as part of the west so we don’t forget it.
To draw a hard divide between every culture is destructive and damaging to all. We need to get beyond this way of thinking because it fosters hatred. I live in the west and have had many Native American friends and have spent a lot of time with them . I can’t imagine what my life would be without their friendships. They are part of America and it is good that Americans remembers that and them.
