New to your channel - via the collaboration you did with Matt. I have an appreciation for the work you put in. I'm a cross between you and Matt. I love the manual portion of working with the wood in its raw tree/log form. The sound of the wood splitting when using wedges, is so satisfying. Makes me smile every time. Great stuff and glad I found your channel.

[@ChopWithChris]

+Girl with a Wood Fetish Thanks for joining. I don't mind that you have one foot on the dark side. 😄

So much useful information, and all in one video...keep up the great work the two of you 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

+theduck Thanks

[@ВалентинКоваль-ф1щ]

It's really DIY. Your projects is very amazing. Мой английский очень плох, плэтому напишу по-русски. Ваши проекты очень радуют своей кажущейся простотой, но в то же время огромным трудом. Электрический инструмент облегчает и упрощает жизнь, но работа ручным инструментом - это возвращение к истокам столярного дела. Подобная работа требует не только золотых умелых рук, больших физических сил, но и светлой головы. Спасибо вам за ваши проекты и за ваши усилия в популяризации ручного труда. желаю вам творческих успехов.

[@ChopWithChris]

Спасибо, мой друг.

[@notatechie]

Wow, Chris, You have humbled me in short order.

[@ChopWithChris]

+notatechie I was just a walk-on but no one carried me off the field so I'm humble too.

[@WilliamAlanPhoto]

Very informative! Thank you! Also, thanks for including some bloopers!

[@ChopWithChris]

+William Alan Photo You bet!!

[@seanflanagan5674]

Chop With Chris Chris and Cremona, whatta crew! I'm so glad that you mentioned how long you do the paper-and-bag process; thanks for that info! How did you actually handle the flaming box elder, and when do you think the mold appeared?

[@ChopWithChris]

+Sean Flanagan Thanks. The box elder was given to me by a friend. I just stacked it in my basement with no moving air which is why it hot mold on it.

[@garymccoy2888]

Chris, I'm sorry man, but thats just nuts. I understand your mission to not use power tools, but wow, that's hard work. I hope your experience with Matt's mill showed you the light...😅😅👍👍

[@ChopWithChris]

+Gary McCoy Matt's amazing but that band saw mill was just scary!

[@JimDockrellWatertone]

Interesting methods.... X2!

[@ChopWithChris]

+Jim Dockrell Thanks

[@jenkins1979]

Hi Chris,I know this is an old video but question about my logs .. My logs already have small cracks.Will it help to still paint the ends to slow down drying or am I too late?thank you Chris

[@ChopWithChris]

Yes - paint them.

[@farmerbob5341]

You take sweat equity very serious! If only I could work with Matt? Subbed Good Job!

[@ChopWithChris]

+Farmer Bob Thanks! Welcome. Matt is a great guy!!

[@notatechie]

Smart dog.

[@ChopWithChris]

😄

[@WoodByWright]

Great collection of info! I prefer your method better. power tools scare me!

[@ChopWithChris]

+Wood By Wright Exactly!!

[@MikkosFree]

I'm normally brave around power tools. EXCEPT for one! The angle grinder scares the shit out of me. Ever since the day I saw a disk break and embed itself into the face of the worker, I could never bring myself to use one.

[@scottharrison7696]

@@MikkosFree I ground my thumb down to the bone with an angle grinder once. It happened in a split second. I call them thumb grinders now...fun times.

[@cando9609]

Nice, Chris! Informative and entertaining. How many Go-Pros do you go through while filming!

[@ChopWithChris]

+Can Do I'm doing a video on that too. 1 Go Pro, one DSLR, One point Point & Click, one iPhone. 4 total

[@therrienmichael08]

In the cards ? What is the cards ?

[@ChopWithChris]

Sorry. I don’t understand.

[@eddieespinosa8743]

Matt do you make items on request, the reason I ask this is because I have faith that you can make anything, I need a metal branding iron wth the initials esp. Something unique that I trust only you can make. If you can, let me know the cost, but if you won't , I'll understand. Your videos are some of the best and I enjoy how you simplify things

[@ChopWithChris]

Please message Matt;s channel.

[@aenorist2431]

Why would he not take the bark off before cutting? Saves you tons of blades, even more if you had dragged / rolled the Tree in the dirt.

[@ChopWithChris]

+Ae Norist Good idea

[@chrisdaldy-rowe4978]

Yeah thats a tough way to cut a tree... but thats the way we used to do it..great job m8...those saw blades must be sharp lol

[@ChopWithChris]

Very sharp!

[@xang72]

cool project, and a lot of work. I don't think your axe is meant to be hit with a hardened mallet, you will destroy the axe.

[@ChopWithChris]

+xang72 No doubt! I am hard on my axes.

[@gareths100]

[@ChopWithChris]

+notatechie He was my coach. Totally amazing human being!

[@notatechie]

Holy crap, you played for Lou Holtz?

[@ChopWithChris]

+notatechie I'll see him this weekend at the Georgia game.

[@notatechie]

Wow! What do you think of Knute Rockne. Have you ever heard of him? You are very young.

[@mormelowoodworking6419]

You my friend are a animal, i mean that with all do respect. Your arms must be the size of footballs. watched some of you video's love what you do . ( new sub)

[@ChopWithChris]

+Mormelo Woodworking Welcome. Football size arms was many years ago but strength flow from the heart.
