The Craftsman

I just happened upon this gem because my friends have Magnolia Network and I was pet sitting. I really hope it becomes a hit. It is really wonderful! I'm hooked already and I can't wait to see more. His philosophy on life and caring for and saving of beautiful historic woodwork along with his love of the woods is just a way of thinking we're losing in our modern world. It's a bit of a documentary style. I really love it and feel like everyone should be watching it. I learned history and the show made me laugh and smile too because The Craftsman is a character and has a great sense of humor. Please watch and share. You will be happy you did! 💗😁👍🏻

I loved being able to escape into the world of woodworking by hand, small town living and community while watching this show. Pepper in Eric's ability to have fun and laugh, you feel like you're a part of the community- the history, the scenery and the people. I especially enjoyed watching the woodworking portions, as someone who has done a very small amount of woodworking myself. Watching Eric explain the nuances of his craft while working is my favorite. I could watch those portions all day long.

Growing up in Humboldt county had been a gift and this show is a wonderful expression of that gift. Both sides of my family have been in this country for hundreds of years and I love this show for its glimpse into one of the most beautiful arts and piece of American history our country holds...the Victorian home. Thank you Eric and family for your dedication to this art and thank you so much for sharing through this wonderful show! All yes!

A most positive family viewing experience for ages 8 to 108! This one showcases not only the Craftsman's amazing skill but the simple yet profound wisdom that he's developed along the way. It proves the paradox that to truly keep something we must be willing to give it away. What he's created from his life and his willingness to share it with us is the true masterpiece! Thank you to all involved in bringing this gem to life!

A really good show. Love Mr. Hollenbeck; he is such a great old dude. I love his spiritual nature. My only complaint sis I wish they would spend more time in his fabulous workshop. His machines are amazing.
