Junk Raiders

This one is for the Canadians. Did anyone see Junk Raiders this season? There was a handyman on it who wore Utility Kilts. I saw at least 2 or 3 different ones.

For anyone who doesn't know the show this team of designers and builders have a month to complete a project using recycled goods (junk) and a small budget. This year they did a loft for the brick works in Toronto. The show was on Discovery Channel.

Great concept for a show and interesting to watch.

Sounds like an interesting show. Too bad it's not on CBC, as that's the only Canadian station I can pick up. (I can often pick up CBC 9 out of Windsor)

Sounds like Junkyard Wars, but with a timeframe more conducive to building stuff that will work.

There was a kilted guy on Junkyard Wars years ago. I couldn't place his accent, but he wore something like s Skilt and had a goatee that went halfway to his navel and a mohawk...blue if memory serves.

I miss Canadian TV...especially Red Greene being on four times a day. When I was a kid we could pick up one station from Seattle part of the time and two Canadian stations pretty much all the time.
