    Cool A tribute to craftsmanship and hand tools

    What is really impressive is how few tools, and how basic the tools are that are employed in producing such a complex article. I pity the poor chair towards the end of the video.

    I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

    No, it's Swedish, but it's predominantly visual, so a translation isn't really necessary.

    I loved the guy making the bucket and would give my left testicle to get hold of a drawknife like that one. Best I have ever seen !

    Default Fantastic site

    Wow what a blast from the past. Makes one realise that we are really only playing with wood. We still make quality products but in a more timely fashion. Thats what it all boils down to "time" and our need to rush. Love the site and thanks for posting it, recommend it!
    Cheers
