Well I for one hadn't seen that before, not owning a tv, and I really enjoyed it. Thanks very much for posting.

.That's a beautiful part of the world you've chosen & some impressive skills, you've got yourself a great life there & I'm envious of your passion.....great stuff.

I remember this at the time, great stuff Rob

That was fun to watch. It looked like that presenter had a good time too. Thanks for sharing.

Paul is absolutely the oposite of what you imagine TV presenters to be. Totally humble down to earth committed to and with a deep understanding of real craft work. And you could tell from the second he picked the axe up he was used to working with tools.

That is nice. Every second with stuff like this on television makes the world a better place. Many don't even know about foot powered lathes. I was well into my 20-years before I knew they existed!

Robin, thats a great programme to see, one that is now downloaded and in my 'Bushcraft' video folder on the PC.

I enjoyed the prog on telly when it was first shown I like the man as a presenter - but his blue suit is a bit iffy

I second that. I'm 25 and that's the first i've heard of one. really nice workshop too.

I rather enjoyed that too. Will try and find more of the programme. Never saw it on the tv.

Cheers Robin!

Great stuff Robin

I first saw a pole lathe 11 years ago at a large Scout camp in Cumbria
