“Popular Mechanics has long been a staple in the homes of DIY Network viewers,” Kathleen Finch, DIY’s general manager, said in a statement. “The magazine’s special ‘100 Skills’ issueis chock-full of useful tips and tools that will be helpful to the DIY novice as well as the how-to expert.”
Every episode features tips on a wide range of home improvement projects such as roof repair, installing an outdoor home theater, and transforming “America’s Most Desperate Landscape” into every homeowner’s dream property.
As part of the partnership, DIY Network experts will be featured in Popular Mechanics’ “100 Skills” issue hitting newsstands Tuesday, Sept. 9.
