The New Yankee Workshop (1989)

Season 11: Episode 6

This is a Norm original, inspired by his need to sort his bright plaids, pastel plaids, and even a few white shirts for the laundry. Entirely constructed of durable, easy-to-clean white melamine, Norm designed this laundry center to work as both a sorting station and as a place to fold clothes and hold laundry supplies. It's a large scale project, that employs a number of basic, cabinetry-making skills. Watch and learn: constructing with and joining together the man-made material melamine, edge-band detailing, heat-sensitive bonding techniques, installing pivot hinges and full slides.
