Ok, I am in awe of what accuracy you have with both the hand axe and the two hander, but the groove you cut in the door and window frames blows my mind. Now, if you were a gnarled 40+ year old forester, I could understand all of this. But to be able to have this knowledge packed into your brain and to put it to use at your age----Lordy, I stand in AWE! Thanks for showing us old fogies that the skills haven't died out somewhere in this old world of ours.

[@serena2003]

I dont get them, why does he do them??

[@InterFelix]

The vertical groove is fairly straight forward, it's the top of the door frame that gets me. Half of the log just chopped away so cleanly... That's really impressive to me. I mean I sure can swing an axe to split some logs for fire wood, but this accuracy and skill has me speechless.

[@InterFelix]

@@serena2003 there is probably some kind of door frame going to be fitted in there, I suppose.

[@paulnewman2115]

Its so the building can settle an move around the door frame without affecting the door

[@Hoch134]

He improved a lot in the last year. If you saw his first video when he started chopping down a tree, his accuracy wasn't bad but average at best (his technique was good though, he definitely learned before he started). Now he can hit exactly at the centimeter he is aiming for. And no wonder after working over a year on the same stuff... probably with more work hours than a he'd have in a full time job.

[@lmm979]

The first part to this video is equally as captivating, and it shows how he replants saplings to replace the trees he used to build the cabin. Such respect, hard work, and tenacity. Lovely to watch.
