Topic tags/keywords: video carving shaping joining traditional hand tools Saw this today and thought I’d share it. It is fabulous. Notice the simple tools and how they use their bodies to hold the workpieces and provide support/leverage for their hand tools. I love the two-man plane. Trades: Clogmaker, spoon carver, chair maker After they make their wares, they load them on a horse and cart and take them to market. -- Andy -- Old Chinese proverb say: If you think something can't be done, don't interrupt man who is doing it. |
