Hahah! Thank you! I agree 100%. My neighbor was confused when I refused his offer of his log splitter. I did 12 of these over the course of the week and am kinda sad they are all split. Thanks for the comment.

@@MountainHighTimberAndStone I have my difficulties with hard maple and can see why workbenchs are made from it, just completed an oak slabs top using two 7' x4"x15" and joined with two sides 4x8x30" hopefully to keep the slabs from changing too much. If it wasn't for the excessive amount of mortise and tenons the project might of completely been discarded, also had to use 6 lag screws that I didn't intend. Greatest challenge was having two perfectly flat surfaces to join/glue together but with patience anythings possible. Amazing how useful a well oiled farm jack can be with such projects, needing a gantry crane more and more these days.

@@Dot-lk8tn That sounds like it's going to be a really nice bench. Those are some big timbers. Ha, that application of the farm jack sounds awesome. Thanks for the comment.

i thor'd it wasn't going to

The first one, I thought the same thing. I've got 12 more to split. Haha.

I got mine from Highland Woodworking. www.highlandwoodworking.com/gransforsbruksright-handbroadaxe.aspx

Thank you sir. Styling the beard this way is a lost art and likely won't be coming back any time soon, because although the Sumerian's perceived the long, curly, well oiled beard as a symbol of masculinity, status and wisdom, today's version of masculinity almost seems to require a look that says: "I have better things to do than curl my beard:" a philosophy of which my mom would have absolutely agreed, may she rest in peace.

Haha! I was thinking it was 10,000 times longer. But I think you're estimate is more accurate.

I tried it once to use a chainsaw to prepare for the final hewing. Takes longer. One try and I only use the axe after that. We have very nice pine in Sweden though. Log at my “Hewing yet another log” and you’ll see. 😀

You're welcome, and I appreciate your comment.

Thank you for your comment. I know what you mean when you mention splitting during the drying process. I think this timber had seasoned sufficiently, but we will see.

Thank you!

Thank you kindly.

Thank you sir.

Thank you, I appreciate your comment.

I am going to use this timber with a few others to build a timber frame saw horse.

Yes it is. Thank you for the comment.

Kurz nachdem ich den Kommentar abgesendet hatte, ging die Geschwindigkeit wieder auf das achtfache. Das ist wirklich schade, grade weil Sie das auch so professionell machen.

Vielen Dank für die freundliche Bewertung. Ich werde das Holz für ein Holzrahmenprojekt verwenden, um einen Sägebock zu bauen, den ich zeigen werde, wenn ich noch ein paar weitere Hölzer behauen habe. Danke fürs Abonnieren. Ich würde gerne eines Tages Deutschland besuchen.

@@haraldkrahl612 Das tut mir leid. Für Sie wird mein nächstes Video in normaler Geschwindigkeit sein. Danke für das Kompliment.

Thank you. Yes, these latest two videos were slowed down at your suggestion. There was no real purpose to me not scoring. I did not score doing any of the faces. There wasn't much to remove, and the wood was paring off so nicely. However, I did have to work back and forth a lot more because of not scoring.

I’m glad to see you found my suggestions useful! There are different ways to hew, of course. I’ve seen hewing without scoring before, but on a pine log the last time. That didn’t look very practical because of the long fibres. A bit different from cherry. Maybe I’ll try to skip the scoring cuts some time to test the difference. For one thing, there’s no risk of ending up with a smaller beam because of scoring cuts running too deep … Looking forward to your next video!

@@olalindberg833 Good information about the pine log. By not scoring on this cherry, I had to be sure to not try to take off too much at a time, otherwise the wood wanted to tear. The times I accidentally dug too deep, I had to change directions to stop it cutting too deeply. Thanks for your comments. It's good to hear from you.

Just happy to see some nice hewing popping up on TH-cam, if my comments are helpful that’s great. I just started a new channel myself, I’ll probably do a bit of hewing there down the line. Felling trees for firewood at the moment though. It’s here if you want to take a look! youtube.com/@myoutdoorways?si=ujPmBeK8kiCQbsqb

Danke für die Bewertung. Ich werde tun, was Sie vorschlagen.

Thank you for the feed back. Those are great suggestions.

Thank you...always nice knowing there's a friend out there.

Thank you.

Thanks FrostyMcG. It's waiting for a worthy purpose.
