![High School for the Trades | This Old House
We often talk about the skilled trade gap and how fewer young people are being exposed to the trades. The BOCES Career and Technical Training program in New York has been addressing this issue for decades. The school serves 23 local high schools, including one where the Saratoga homeowner, Evan teaches. Evan asked one of his students, Francesco Delgallo, to build some hockey goals for the backyard rink. Kevin O’Connor meets up with Francesco at BOCES to learn more about the program and his decision to explore the trades. Then, Francesco teaches Kevin how to weld. Then they present the new goal to Evan at our project house.

![House Lifting | This Old House
The Bay Head house needs to be lifted — but only four feet this time, and from the second floor structure, which requires threading steel beams through the windows and setting precise cribbing.
SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse.
The Bay Head cottage is going up—but this first lift is only four feet, and its being done from the second-floor structure rather than the foundation. That means threading heavy steel I-beams through the second-floor window openings and setting a precise web of cribbing beneath the house. Get the cribbing wrong, and the house doesnt rise evenly. The whole operation has to be choreographed carefully with a crew that does this regularly but never casually.

![Modular Home Factory | This Old House
Sandy upended Rita Gurrys life. Now, her new home is being built inside a factory in Pennsylvania—and the whole thing comes together in less than a week.
SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse.
Rita Gurry lost her Manasquan Cape to Sandys mold and devastation. Now she has an empty lot and a decision: traditional stick-frame construction, which takes months, or a modular home built in a factory in under a week and delivered to the site. She chose modular—and Richard Trethewet is at the Pennsylvania factory to show viewers exactly what that means. For many people, modular still conjures images of low-quality prefab. What Richard finds is something very different: a precision manufacturing operation where Ritas home is being built room by room, inside out, with the same materials and to the same code as any site-built home.
