Virkesberedning - Rekonstruktionen av Södra Råda medeltidskyrka

[@waynelewis881]

This is by far the most skilled axe man I’ve seen, and his physical strength and endurance boggle the mind!

[@Plataani]

And everyone, remember that you can do this identical to him. Only difference is thousands and thousands of hours of practice and work. This commands respect in this day and age to be able to dedicate time for such art. Very nicely done!

[@hasannaci]

Amazing axe skills. I watched this vid about 3 years ago, I just had to watch it again. amazing.

[@petter5721]

Thank you for keeping Swedish culture alive 👍🏻

[@fabribeijing]

one hatchet, and broad axe, that's it. No bark scraper, no long axe, saw etc etc, huge respect for Mr Andersson.

[@kravist518]

Absolutely amazing to watch this man work you can learn a lot from just watching no words have to be spoken and yet the lesson is taught

[@oxbowfarm5803]

I have watched this video over and over again. Mr. Andersson's skill with his axe is astounding. Maybe many folks don't know how incredibly difficult cutting a log face flush and square on the endgrain is, the way Mr. Andersson does beginning at 0:43, but I've tried it, never succeeded yet. It requires amazing consistent accuracy.

[@jamminbucy7781]

Oxbow Farm yea and try it on cherry. that's what I'm doing. theres no pine on my land . its not quite as straight grained.

[@blocka58]

axe skills yes, no doubt about that but waste of timber I may say. Could have got more useable lumber from that log. Oh well, great job Mr.

[@SkillCult]

Amen. i'm sure you noticed it was felled with an axe too. No saws. old school.

[@bobmarley5811]

Du fortjener en flaske snaps for det!!

[@Ayce47]

i can't split a log to make firewood without missing a couple of times, let alone cut exactly where i want. Mad props to this guy. It's rare to see a man find beauty and passion into simple things.

[@ardvarkkkkk1]

Iacob Sorin I know the feeling. I'm afraid if I did this, for one it would take days and it would likely resemble a propeller. This guy's amazing.

[@richardlajosbagyo1786]

All my respect for Mr. Andersson, for his skills and efforts!

[@Ballenxj]

Amazing! He appears to still have all his fingers and toes, so he must be doing something right. Thumb up.

[@geosutube]

This goes a long way to explaining the success of the Swedes in the new world.

[@angelinahorber]

Fantastisch!! Kein Lärm, keine technische Schnickschnack, nur Können. Danke vielmals!

[@RSLtreecare]

What a magnificent piece of work. Real skills.

[@ericarvid1]

Thank you!! Absolutely enjoy watching this video. My Grandfather would have loved to see it too.

[@ВікторРоманюк-й2ж]

Ingenious! Many can make a bed or a table on modern superplanes. To make a bar with one ax, this is true skill.

[@CAkavskaTvKvarner]

Great work! Beautifull outcome!

[@paysontom1]

Amazing hand eye coordination!

[@themurrrr]

Tho I will never be cutting a log like this myself: I came because Talasbuan recommended this vid and I have a lot of respect and interest in this kind of craftsmanship,

Sounded like a blue man concert at first. Great video.

meget flot! det var skønt for en dansk skovhugger at se denne video :D Bravo

[@MrWoody135]

Much respect for your axe skills. Who needs to go to a gym hey ?.......just watched entire clip. Utterly amazed at the accuracy....with a pair of axes. Stunning.

I wonder how long this takes from start to finish? This guy must be in really good shape, as I've never seen him stop for very long. Now I understand how this country was built by our ancestors, and how hard it was!

Phenomenal. You wouldn't want to arm wrestle this gentleman ☺

[@vincent7520]

I cannot help thinking about the story of the guy who camps out and forgot his matches that was common in the funnies section of the Sunday paper years ago !… Amazing consistent skills.

[@geosutube]

The finest steel in the axes to withstand such constant use.. The entire church was reconstructed using this method.

[@marlinblack6597]

A Beautiful job. You would have to be very wary of fatigue. An adze through the shin would be mighty painful. It is very satisfying to see craftsmanship from yesteryear still alive.

[@tracykeenan4449]

WOW fantastic job

[@hasannaci4883]

Amazing I thought I was good with the ax cutting firewood. this guy puts me to shame, Just amazing. what skill

[@69sungam]

Jag gillar "tonen" i stocken...den lever I like the tone in the timber...its a live.. for me its good timber Magnus

[@timhyatt9185]

every culture had it's own version of squaring timbers.....the interesting part for me is to see the different methods and uses of the tools. It seems strange to me to not be using a bent-handled gull-wing broadaxe for the joggling and hewing stages, but that's how i was taught...others will use an adze to finsih the surface, while others never do.....but all are able to get a nice square timber at the end and you can't say it's wrong if the result fits the need. (and gives you something to discuss when you start comparing/contrasting the methods)

[@steelstanding8005]

And from wood chippings like that the first spoons saw the light of day. Offcuts of wood is still called spon here in Scandinavia.

[@syntaxerror8955]

Thank you for that piece of linguistics! Had no idea. Yes, for example "sågspån" means "sawdust" or "wood shavings" in Swedish. (såg = saw)

[@ThatSpiffingChap]

2 years late but a quick look at the etymology and it appears to be the opposite and spoons come from spon (and it's relatives). Which explains why in modern Scandinavian, like Swedish, it is 'sked' which is very different to spån. However spån in modern Swedish is also pieces of wood used as roof/ wall tiles/ cladding so there was a related use after all.

[@riv1950]

Mycket bra, tack

[@Dave-ty2qp]

Prior to the 1940's this is how most of the railroad timbers were hewn. Amazing what men can accomplish. We expect so little from ourselves now.

[@gomertube]

Beautiful work but he is working pretty hard. Is that axe really lightweight?

[@Ruralset]

that's a beautiful axe you got there.

[@dennisa6132]

How good is one of those smaller hewing hatches compared to modern hewing hatches like a Gränsfors 1900 ?

[@elimartinez665]

What are the dimensions of the axes? Fine work!

[@GuitarraLisboa1977]

That´s a perfect job!!!!!

[@howardschechter9768]

That was really great! I wonder what he uses to hone his axe?

[@randycurtis1176]

A hone stone? Maybe a file, a foot or hand powered wheel, a finishing stone. Pretty much the same tools were used in Europe and America before electricity.

[@johanjonsson3591]

[@Dunderwood62]

What kind of axe is that?

[@11h5p4]

Wow such stamina and skill !

[@bethbrunelle7431]

How does he know what height (the second, taller cut) to make it? The first was done with the with of the board, but I didn't see him make any measurements. I hope this question makes sense. If not, let me know and I'll try to explain.

[@brotherlove100]

I'm guessing that at 22:18 he is describing that the large chunks mean there is little waste as it can be used for other things.?

[@strategicconsensus]

Correct. Paraphrased: 'It might seem wasteful, removing so much material from such a fine log. But in a time when all heating and cooking was done by wood fires, these scraps would have been used as fuel.'

[@maxdecphoenix]

it's called a Plumb rule. Same function as a plumb line, with added utility of a straight-edge for plotting and transfering lines.
