Brilliant. Not a brass knob or Lee Nielsen in sight. I'm always impressed by real artisans - no pretension, just quality work made with whatever tools were to hand.

Bugger the link doesn't work and it sounds interesting. Is it Swedish chaps making interesting thing with just an axe and a penknife? If so it's the sort of thing you might find here: www.bodgers.org.uk/bb/phpBB2/index.php |

Try this link instead then: svt.se/svt/play/video.jsp?a=534420Don't click the "play" word, click on the smaller text where it says "Träskomakeri, träskedstillverkning, stolmakeri (utan ljud) 1923" Very interesting. Those were the days. |

How does the chap making the spoon work out his percentage of waste wood, per cubic foot? lol.
Great to watch, wouldn`t like to be in the first guys shoes.
