Episodes
1. Power Under Pressure
Tim Allen, Richard Karn, and April Wilkerson show what’s possible when you put power under pressure. With a little help from their friends at Bobcat, the team gets into the driver’s seat of a fleet of heavy machinery to show the power, agility, and precision possible with hydraulics. Finally, Tim challenges an expert maker to build him a pneumatic-powered mechanic’s creeper and gets more power than he can handle!
2. Blades
Tim Allen, Richard Karn, and April Wilkerson dissect the mighty power of blades. Starting in Tim’s workshop, they show what happens when a hand gets caught in a garbage disposal, and make a home-milling machine that you can build yourself. Later, they hit the road to check out massive industrial blades, including a metal-shearing guillotine and a mega-shredder that tears up 600 cars an hour. It’s cutting edge stuff!
3. Lights and Lasers
Tim Allen, Richard Karn, and April Wilkerson set their sights on light and lasers. In Tim's workshop, the team attempts to foil a mission impossible style security grid created by a pair of laser experts, Tim and Richard hit the road to witness industrial-strength lasers carving up slabs of steel, and April cooks an egg with a super powerful flashlight.
