Paul Teutul JR Designs is the new venture by Paul Teutul featured on American Chopper tonight. Paul Teutul JR Designs for Coleman Stoves launched earlier this year. Teutul says of his designs: “I’m just taking my passion for design and applying it in other areas.” But why stoves? He explains his rational: “Coleman said, ‘We want to innovate our way out of the recession,’ and I want to motivate young and old, to get them out of the house and get away from computers, and go outside. To that end, “I’m customizing this grill just the way I would a chopper, and the beauty is that it’s under $200.” Paul’s company featured tonight on the TLC show will reportedly continue in the storyline during future episodes. “It’s like two companies in one show but I’m bringing this different feeling, this different element. “Is it a segue into doing my own show? Absolutely.” Paul says girlfriend Rachael is a core in team, from logos to more.
