Takes a bit longer when done by ourselves.

Amazing skills - brilliant knowledge, almost a lost world unfortunately.

Doing that barefoot is something else, he must really trust his axe skills.

[@edwinmason123]

It's safer doing it barefoot.

[@geoffrey6000]

@@edwinmason123 How so? One misstep and you've lost a few toes.

[@edwinmason123]

@@geoffrey6000 because you can grip the wood and not slip as with shoes. Also with a heavy axe that sharp no footwear is going to stop a nasty wound if you don't get it right! I'm just trying to find a video I saw that explains it, I'll send the link.

[@pitizone3868]

Really impressive. I'm wondering if the pins used to lock assemblies are in really in Steel? Usually we use hard wood pins.

[@I-am-not-a-number]

Most of the older people look very competent, I was wondering who this course is designed for, I would have expected a lot more youngsters.

At home playing video games.😂😂

Ideally, you pull a chalk line up 2 inches at the most. Any higher than that your line will be off.

Grüße nach Lettland aus dem Osnabrücker Land. Das Land und dessen Leute haben uns letztes Jahr mehr wie nur verzaubert. Wunderschöne Kultur und Landschaften, die einen nicht mehr loslassen wollen. Ich freue mich bereits auf unsere nächste Reise ins Baltikum, diesmal ausschließlich nach Lettland.
