I just couldn't pass up posting this classic NBC interview with furniture designer Charles Eames (and wife Ray) where he introduces the instant-classic Eames Lounge Chair. (actually, you have to watch part two to see the complete unveiling.)
This chair isn't exactly a showcase in fine woodworking, but it is something that any furniture maker can appreciate. To watch part two of this segment, and see other classic clips, visit The Classic Crooners channel on YouTube.
