BBC 4 go slow hand made
hi all
i'm a big fan of BBC 3 and 4
and love there GO SLOW hand made films
well filmed and simple and so far two wonderful skilled craftsman
the Blade smith had the best collection of hammers I have ever seen !!!!!
the finished knife was truly a work of art , although I did not see any hard edge material being added , maybe left out for trade secret reasons
just thought I'd share my admiration for these programs

I was fascinated by both the programmes - but surprised at the end of the glass-blower's half-hour to see that the woman hadn't been
mentioned. She was doing a significant amount of work, even if he was 'the official craftsman'. Surely they could have given her an
'assisted by...' credit.
There's another one on tomorrow (Wed) about a chair maker.
