If any of you watch Chip and Joanna Gaines on HGTV fixerupper you have probably seen them use Harp designs to build furniture. I found this while looking at some of their out takes. I think we have a new turner growing up.

Very cool John. I am always looking in the background on their shows to see turned pieces in the décor.

Me too Barry. Whenever I watch TV or a movie I am looking at what's in the set. You never know when you will see something that will give you an idea of what to make. If you want rustic watch the old Bonanza TV show. They had some of the coolest turnings on mantles and tables.

"Fixer Upper" is filmed in Waco, TX. Last year while at SWAT, my Significant Other wanted to visit Chip and Joanna's store where they sell home furnishing and decor items. You would think that a Thursday morning during thunderstorms would be a good time to visit to avoid the crowds. Noooooo.

Their parking lot is too small, so it is blocked off. Parking is available at a church a block away, or street parking where ever you can find it. The place was jammed with people.

The store is stocked with really nice items and the staff is all really friendly and helpful, mostly Baylor students. Despite the crowds, it is well worth the visit.

Last year SWAT organized a wives tour there, I don't know if that is planned for this year also.

Now I couldn't hear it, (cause I was at work) but why are they wearing gloves? It's just my opinion but isn't that very dangerous?

Other than that, I think it's great he is teaching a youth how to turn. I like the show too!

I do wear gloves in the winter although with my new shop it hasnt been that cold what i didnt like and would never do is touch the wood wearing gloces. That is very dangerous.

Yes John good point. Although in Southern California, there is no need for gloves. Lol.

And they were very loose fitting gloves. Gloves are dangerous.
