PORT TOWNSEND — A new reality show starring two Port Townsend residents makes its debut tonight on the DIY channel.
Jake Jacob and Forrest Binger, who both work at Pacific Northwest Timbers, 130 Seton Road, have joined the cast of the new show which is viewable at 9 p.m. Tuesdays on the cable channel.
Jacob and Binger are part of a crew lead by builder B’Fer Roth and will offer a unique twist on traditional home building, according to a press release.
Each episode features the team as they climb high and build treehouses ranging from Hobbit-style cottages to open air structures that offer woodland views, the release said.
The first season of show has already been filmed, according to the network.
DIY Network, from the creators of HGTV and Food Network, currently broadcasts to more than 58 million homes and covers a broad range of categories, including home improvement and landscaping, the press release said.
After a story last week in the Port Townsend/Jefferson County Leader, Jacob and Binger are no longer allowed by the network to grant media interviews, Jacob said.

The DIY Network is viewable at Comcast Channel 203 in Port Townsend and on the Dish Network at Channel 111.
