Tommy Walsh and his Ultimate Workshop

[Noel]

Although there's another thread on this it's got a bit generlized so thought I'd start a new one.
Just watched it and found it quite interesting. Chris (Waterhead) was right, he'd plenty of helpers to do the donkey work. But still a good show and no doubt will become more attractive as the weeks go on.
Didn't see Philly on it, but there was some Scottish bloke with a sparsely equipped shop....
Well done Ian.

Gotta agree with Noel. Congrats Ian nice to see you in your workshop. I'm sure you could squeeze some more tools in there somewhere. TW's made his base big enough so the shop is going to be a decent size, it will be interesting to see if he installs a wooden floor.

Ian, nice to here your voice and not just pictures
Wooden floor or not , I still would put polythene damp course down under the concrete pad

 

[judder]

Ian, how much are you charging for autographs ? :lol:

Well done, your shop looks great !

 

[Ian Dalziel]

B****R,

Hi Ian

It's going to be repeated at 1.00 am - set your video! It was great to see you in your workshop, especially with the attention being rightly given to your wonderful infill plane and tool chest. I rather fear Tommy will only be able to aspire to the standards you've set, not match them.

I missed it too - watching Jamie Oliver's Italian series. Recorder set for 01.00. Apparently, there's going to be a mezzanine floor on lifts in order to make both the space underneath useable and the upper space useable when lowered. Sounds interesting! I think a 42" plasma is a bit OTT for a workshop, though.

Also, look out for his "cameo" part in a film called "One" which is a low-budget US release, I think.

Ray.

Aaaaaarrrggh

I didn't realise that this was on.

What is the show called? I assume it's on Discovery.

Cheers

Yep, its the first time my interest has been piqued. (I'm not interested in Tommy Walsh - but a look rounds Ians workshop would have been of interest!)

Am I the only remaining person on this forum who has never, ever seen even a single episode of "Norm"?

Ian if you missed it I have it on DVD

Despite my earlier comments, I was impressed. Good to see them actually showing the construction of the workshop rather than racing through to the finish.

Lets hope it stays on track.

Great to see Ian's workshop in moving pictures. I wonder if they are having a different workshop on display every week. Anyone else been filmed?

oh, and I recognised the 'joiner' he called tricky dicky. Can't place him tho.

Good to see Willy is still on the team

Hi Adam,

No, you are not the only one. :wink: I've never seen this 'Norm' either.

I don't have, don't want, and won't have SKY - despite the constant junk mail that Mr. Murdoch keeps supplying me with to replenish the local paper bank. :wink:

Cheers,

Trev.

I'll second that.

Shred and load onto the compost heap, my veggies thought it was great after it had been sat at the bottom of a pile of muck for 24 months...

Saying that, couldnt live with out Sky...No sir..

You may have no choice when the analogue signals are switched off and you can't receive digital over your terrestrial aerial . Oh no, I forget we have been promised everyone will be able to receive digital over their terrestrial aerial by then - yeah right!

(Oh I forgot to set to record this too - so if any kind soul could lend me the episode on DVD - I would return it swiftly and be forever in their debt.)

Cheers

It's on again on Sunday at 1.30 pm. Same channel "Discovery Real Time"

It is little known because that's the way Sky keep it, but you can have a satellite receiver to receive "free to air" the same as by aerial. In fact some people take advatage of Sky's introductory offers, get the box and dish, pay the cheapest package for a year and then revert to freeto air.
It might be an option for someone who can't get it through their aerial.
Boxes are dead cheap on Ebay as well, as people upgrade to Sky+ .The problem then is the cost of fitting if you can't do it yourself.

cheers Alan
