By the way, I was curious as to why you filed the edges and then cut them again. Why not leave them as they were, with the cuts from the sides? Anyway when filing a saw, what matters is what the sides do, isn't it?

Well, I used to sell a similar design that I forged myself. But these verry axes were forged under rather primitive conditions in this verry forest, sharpened on a local stone and hafted by wood cut by the axe itself. I had this idea that I wanted to make a wooden chest from scratch, including the tools to build it with. I recorded the process on 360 video and published here on this channel, the video quality was not verry good but the axes proved useful.

Interesting video. This plane, while not perfect, was certainly adequate to do most crude wood shaping. Almost all woodworking seems to begin with establishing a flat surface on a tool. From there, you can get the rest of basic joinery. However, I can't find any reference that speaks to how wood planes were initially reliably flattened before industrialization. Just thinking about it, some minerals fracture flat, so that might give you a reliable reference surface. Alternately, if you mixed a loose slurry of concrete in a box, it would settle and dry flat. Or you could pour molten metal, let it dry flat, and put sand on top to then sand wood flat. So, any information you can share on how wood was initially flattened true for toolmaking?
@gustavthane2233
@gustavthane2233 3 ай бұрын
Well, a flat large surface is quite different to a flat small surface, and the method I use here can be used to make an ever flater plane. In therory we can assume that the stone age technique of grinding three surfaces towards each other two at the time will allways lead to a perfect plane in the end. Just ad sand and water between the two stones and they will erode. In practice I assume almost flat is enough. Wood joinery may establish a flat suface to begin with but not much flatter than what a plane is providing. A plane gives you a flat surface due to the fixation of the chisel/cut, not the flatness of the tool. The tool is only flat to stop the tool from wobbling, at a surface large enough unwanted wooble tend to even out.

@@gustavthane2233 Thank you for responding. Didn't know about grinding three surfaces together, but it makes sense. I see that I was assuming a lot about the chisel. Was always curious about how it all started. Had the opportunity to see the shop of an old woodworker out in California who did restoration work. He had so many specialized planes and tools I've never seen before. He restored an antique china cabinet that had water damage around the base. Amazing hand workmanship. He lamented having nobody to share his knowledge with.

Yes, it is common with axes that are flat on one side, it is a slightly different technique to use them, in Sweden it is called a "saxslipad yxa" I guess that traslates into seax beveled axe . Fun fact: the handle needs to be angled out as well so you don't hurt the knuckles but since the axe also needs to be flat past the eye the whole eye-area of the axe is quite different to normal axes.

How long will a fence like this last? Do you have to replace the pairs of upright poles in ground?
@gustavthane2233
@gustavthane2233 4 ай бұрын
There are different numbers suggested depending on the durability of different materials. My slow grown wetland fir in this sandy ground will probably last longer than some other fences. Traditionally the whole fence is checked and repaired every 15 years. But if properly repaired Iit might not need to be totally replaced within the next 60 years. Yes the upright poles is the weak spot along with the collars. After 15 years I push down the poles another foot or so and then I put an oval collar on top of everything. The important thing is to ensure the diagonals to stay on top of each other, when they fall down on the side of each other the fence is no fence but a pile.
