Raleigh - Gov. Mike Easley will join Roy Underhill in the fall season national premier of the public television show “The Woodwright’s Shop,” to air at 4 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 4 on UNC-TV, North Carolina’s statewide public television network. Some stations may air the show on Saturday, Sept. 27. The episode, “The First Woodworker,” was originally taped last October and had a special preview showing only on UNC-TV last December.
 
In the opening episode of the show’s 28th season, Easley and Underhill make a “Po-Boy” table. In less affluent times, before reuse and recycle were popular design concepts, Easley made this type of table by salvaging scrap walnut from a furniture maker and using different sized paint cans for a template. Easley is the first North Carolina governor to appear on the show.
