Craftsman's Legacy - Season 1

In A CRAFTSMAN'S LEGACY, host Eric Gorges goes on a quest to discover the true craftsmen in today's world. In each episode, Gorges interviews the people responsible for carrying the tools, trades and traditions of fine craftsmanship into the 21st century, including a glass blower, guitar maker, weaver, potter, woodworker, basket weaver, stone carver, knife maker, blacksmith, boat maker and a saddle maker. In his interviews, Gorges learns why they chose their craft, where they learned their skills, how they live using their talents, and the challenges and importance of keeping that tradition alive in a modern-day world. He then takes on the role of apprentice on a project under the guidance of the master craftsman. In these inspiring segments, Gorges proves that, with the right tools and careful direction, a person with no experience can learn the basic skills of a craft to create something of lasting value.
