Top 10 Television Shows with Prominently Featured Power Tools
(None of these TV shows feature power tools being used for violence)
10. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition: You will probably not learn how to renovate your own home in 7 days, but you may catch the spirit of giving and selflessness in this ironic spin off of a show that emphasized vanity through extreme surgical procedures that often took participants away from their families for months in preparation for “the reveal.”
9. Home Improvement (Every Episode): A fictional TV family, with a DIY Dad, comically demonstrates what NOT to do in your workshop.
8. Dream House: From finding the land to installing the kitchen sink, this show takes you through each step of building your home.
7. Don’t Sweat It: A show that tackles the projects you never seem to finish.
6. Hammer Heads: Three builders come to your home to complete substantial projects in a weekend. Episodes include creating backyard retreats, installing a pool cabana, and creating private spaces for kids sharing one room.
5. The New Yankee Workshop: Norm Abram teaches you master woodworking skills.
4. This Old House: Classic show that introduces old school homes to modern conveniences.
3. Take Home Handyman: A great show that really takes you through the steps of using your power tools, instead of simply showing you the finished product.
2. Toolbelt Diva: Host Norma Vally guides DIY beginners through projects using tools that you are likely to already own.
1. Cool Tools: A cutting edge look at power tools to come and awesome innovations on those we know and trust.

May I suggest one of my favorite Fix’Em Up shows; Holmes on Homes. It’s a Canadian series shown on HGTV. This guy comes in and takes over home repair / home improvement jobs left unfinished by shoddy, often unlicensed contractors. I highly recommend it. I’ve learned a great deal.

Great addition LyleD! Thank you for your input; I completely forgot about Holmes on Homes. I think our readers will definitely agree with you!
