Arrow Fastener Helps to Inspire DIYers and Crafters in NBC-TV's New Competition Series "Making It" hosted by Amy Poehler and Nick Offerman

SADDLE BROOK, N.J., July 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Arrow Fastener Company is proud to announce its popular glue guns, nailers, riveters and staple guns, including the iconic T50, were selected for NBC's new competition series, "Making It," premiering Tuesday, July 31(st) at 10:00 p.m. EDT/9:00 p.m. CDT. Amy Poehler and Nick Offerman host this fun and friendly six episode crafting series where eight talented Makers tackle projects that test their ability to think outside of the box in unpredictable ways. Every episode will revolve around a central theme that draws inspiration from hugely popular, nationwide trends in crafting and do-it-yourself (DIY) that the whole family can enjoy.

"We are excited to have Arrow tools in the hands of these creative DIYers and crafters. From small projects to large ones, Arrow not only stands behind each of our products, but also for the pride and confidence we help to instill in people as they tackle a variety of jobs," said Bill Sokol, vice president, Marketing, Arrow Fastener. "We empower crafters, DIYers and pros with projects and ideas to remodel, repair and decorate their homes. Our tools and accessories arm you with everything you need to tackle projects with confidence."

Each episode of this uniquely light hearted competition series will consist of two projects that allow the Makers to demonstrate their specialized talent while sharing skilled insights and touching personal stories. First, the "faster-craft" round is a timed challenge to test contestants' ability to not only work quickly but imaginatively as well. Next the "master craft collection" is a one-of-a-kind themed challenge in which the competitors use their expertise and get inventive in order to assemble a winning craft that fits the theme of that week.

Among the Arrow tools put to good use are the GT300 PRO high temperature glue gun that offers the precision necessary for both Pro applications and DIY home repair. The 300W high temp glue gun heats up fast and offers the ultimate in glue control with the combination of its drip resistant nozzle and precision glue control adjustment knob making it easy to place small dots or smooth lines with accuracy.
