[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 52093, member: 27"] Though not a true "remodel houses" type show, there is a series on DIY called [I]Barnwood Builders [/I]that I like. The men on this show take down old barns, log cabins, and other centuries-old structures in the West Virginia area, and re-constructs ("re-stacks") them on other sites for people to use for various purposes. You get a lot of information on how the pioneers built their cabins, barns, etc. without the benefits of modern technology (like [I]nails[/I]), and also get a glimpse into how such places can be re-purposed to last another two hundred years. They frequently get to interact with the family members who remember living in or using the old structure, so we get to attach real people to the buildings. Part construction lesson, part history lesson. [/QUOTE]
