An yes work first, talking after. Perfect formula 👌
Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate it
The format you have now is perfect. Footage of the build with the background nature noises and sounds of tools working with the commentary at the end. Wouldn’t change it at all. Keep up the good work!
Thank YOU Jamie:) i appreciate the feedback and im happy you like the video and the format:)
Thanks for sharing the build videos with us - no voice over is great - and I do like the discussion at the end too. Appreciate your work and am excited that you are doing this
Thank you Jim. I appreciate the feedback and im glad you feel this way:)
Great stuff my friend, I wouldn't change a thing! I love hearing the sounds of you working, the wood cracking and splitting, with the birds chirping and the stream in the background. It's wonderful, and it feels more organic this way. It's the closest we can get to being present there with you. The discussion at the end is more than enough to explain what you were doing, and about the tools, next steps, etc.
I'm eagerly looking forward to seeing the vertical timbers go up! A shot of you standing inside the frame of the house would be an excellent indication of the scale. Thank you for sharing, and keep up the fantastic work my friend!
Thanks alot my friend. Im happy you enjoy the format and the sounds Like me. I cant wait to get back to building and start seeing some vertical progress too. And I promise to make more overview shots soon:) stay safe my friend.
this is wonderful. no need for the narrator/voiceover. it was like visiting with you intimately. very enjoyable! and i agree that the ambient sounds are vital.
my only gripe is that you didn’t sing lol.
thank you, ramuni! 🧡
HELLO Eileen:) thanks for the feedback. I promise to sing a bit again soon. I got out of the habbit in my videos. Thanks for reminding me:) All the best

Thanks for the feedback:)
I like this format. Thank you for sharing your project.
Thank you:) you Are most welcome
I like this format. Keep up the good work.
Thanks very much. I will:)
I’m really enjoying your videos. Thank you from Texas, USA.
That great to hear. Thank you:)
Man, I knew your Axework is high-level, but now I'm shure at least your basics are on par with the boatbuilders I've seen in Roskilde.
Regarding the Videoformat: I am compleatly on your side there: The ambient sounds are quite medative and since you do provide "real-time" information with subtitles, I don't feel I'm missing out on information. And the talks at theend add the right bit of your joy for the project, information and of course personality.
Hello my friend. Thanks alot for the kind Words and for sharing your thoughts on the format. Im happy you enjoy it. I dont Consider myself great with the axe but I work with 2 rules in my head. 1 it has to feel good (fun or exciting, enjoyable and easy to be mindful about). I have days where i know i should not do axe work cause my mind is somewhere Else etc. And 2: (and this goes for all the tools unless using a Mallet): i dont want to use force. If i need to apply force something is wrong. The tools is not sharp enough, or not the right tool for the job, or my tecnique is not good. I think with these rules and some practise you go a long way:) needles to say i have very Nice tools made by very Nice blacksmith:)
Excellent video! I like the talking at the end! I get absorbed in the work and the sounds of nature! These videos are fuelling my own projects! I've been practicing making boards with my axe! We had some downed pine trees here! It's amazing what they did in the past! The amount of work to make just a couple of boards! I'm interested in what kind of fire pit you will do? Thanks for the video!
Hello my friend. Thank you. Great to hear you get to do some axe work yourself. Yes its alot of work and you get to appreciate things differently. I am not having a firepit in the House as its very small and I only intend to use it recreationaly. But I Will make some kind of raised fireplace out in front for when i need Cooking or fire for a craft project.
Very relaxing to watch you at work and then loving your explanations of the tools and processes of your build. Very nicely done 👍🏻
Thank you Arielle. I am HAPPY you liked the video and the format:) stay safe:)
I love your videos my friend
Thank YOU Paul:)
i'm interested and i like this format - thanks for sharing! subbed!
Great to hear. Thanks for sharing the feedback
looks very good!! exited to see it progress
Thank you. Me too:)
Thanks, an other great video. Love the hewing axe, would love to tryit out. I saw a knot on the handle. Maybe down the line, you can do a video on the tool, choices in handle material etc.. Love the video like this, maybe a few more overview shots between the differen activities. Personally I also love closeups of tool use, but this might interrupt your work flow to much.
Hello:) thanks for the feedback. I think by the end of the project we could have a video where we go through the tools with more close ups etc. To review and so. I Will Consider more overvids shots and maybe get the drone in the air when the conditions permit. Thanks for watching:)
I like your Voice like this! It feels calming and it is nice to watch your Videos :3 Thanks for sharing your journey!! :D
Thank you Robin:) im happy to hear that:) All the best
This is great! I love it!
Thank you so much Michael:)
Fedt projekt. Meget meditativt at følge med i.
Mange tak Lars. Dejligt at høre:)
You sir, just earnt a new subscriber..
Thank you. Very happy to have you onboard:)
awesome video,thank for talking about the axe,that is always the first thing i ask about,hope to see more
Thank you. And you are most welcome. Axes Are always the best:)
A lovely video and I really enjoyed the sounds of you working outside.
In answer to the question of a voice over I would prefer not. Have you considered subtitles instead. I like them as you can turn them on or off as you like. Another advantage is you can offer multiple languages.
That said, I really enjoyed the reflection at the end, especially when you describe the feel of using the tools. This is hard to pick up in a video but having some experience with woodworking I can really relate to your descriptions.
Thank you again for taking the time to make these videos.
Hello. Thank you so much:) i have Considered it a few times. I feel it takes a lot of subtitles to explain something rather that just say it. But I know it would be good for the different languages. I Will keep it in mind:)
@@RAMUNI-Viking I think the trick with subtitles is using them more as highlights or pointing out something you don't get from watching. They can be a lot of work otherwise.
Explanations, like in this video, are great at the end. I enjoyed hearing you talk about the new axe or the curve of the mallet. The love of using these tools really shone through.
I was also intrigued to see you using the axe as a chisel. Very clever trick.
What you’re doing is 100% awesome. It’s relaxing and cool to watch. I have 1 questions why are you not using a saw?
Thank you my friend. 2 reasons.1 there is only one found from the Viking age that is big enough for this kind of work (mastermyr) and 2:i dont own a replica. But I Will need one at some point for this project.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful and educational video about building your "tiny" Viking house. Making the roof shingles seems like a time-consuming job to me. I have seen how they make wooden roof shingles at the Ring Fort in the Ribe Vinking Center and how many you need for a roof...... Roof tight for the winter?
Hello my friend. It sure is time consuming. They had a team of several People Who met for a whole Winter weekly to make shingles. Its great roofs and very weather resistent. My house is by overhang trees, a lot of shade etc so a shingle roof is not optimal for me. But I want to experiment with them so i plan to make a wall or a partial wall clad with shingles to learn from it. Also depending on how many shingles i can get from the oak i have. Thanks for watching again:) much appreciate your feedback as always:)
Great project and looking forward to the end result. Was wondering though. Why didn't you use a saw?
Thank you. 1: there is only 1 archaological find of a Saw big enough to work this wood from the Viking age. 2: i dont own a replica of it yet. But I was surprised how easy it was with chisel and axe. 15-20 minutes for 1 half of the joint. But this is pine. With oak would have been tough work i believe.
Love channel, have subscribed. Reminds me a little of TA outdoors a uk bushcraft type channel who does old world builds as well.
Thanks for subscribing and take it as a good compliment to be compared to TA:)
What do you use for sharpening your tools? Some sort of Whetstone?
Amazing work, looking forward to the next one
Hello:) i use a replica of a fine wetstone from the Viking age. I try to keep my cutting edges sharp and not de then. This stone is fine for touching up but if i make a dent or need to reprofile the edge i need to use a small file or find a blacksmith in a nearby Village Who has a corse wetstone wheel:)
I''m very excited for you! How long did it take you to do the things you filmed in this video? Also I'm curious about the temperature near you. I wish i could wear my wool right now but its too hot!😯
Hello. And thank you. Each lap took around 15 minutes. And there is 2 laps to a set and 4 sets. So around 2 Hours for joining the bottom frame. And the Mallet 15 min. And maybe 20 minutes for hewing in the end. The temperature in summer here is between 14-22 degrees celcius these days with a few days here and there with plus 25 Degrees in and out. And this year a lot of rain. All the best
💪🏼 здравствуй 👍🏼
Hello Oleg. Thanks for watching so many of my videos lately
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Interesting, do you think the people of the age you are interpreting didn't have frame saws, or do you just not have one? Great video either way!
No framesaws for the Vikings. At least not prooved by archaeology. There is small saws for bone work etc. I demonstrate one in my video about making bellows. And there is one big Saw from Viking age but I dont own a replica yet. But I Will need one:) but for sure according to the finds saws did not play a big role for the viking carpenter. Extensive research has been done on the remains of viking ships. And not one single piece of the wood shows signs of Sawmarks. Axe was the way to go mostly.
Very nice Video like always. Thanks for making these.
Where do you have the axe from i like it a lot
I would not make a voice over becouse of All the nice sounds like your said
Thank you:) and you Are welcome. I bought the axe of a German blacksmith in Ribe Viking market some years ago. Sadly i did not get the replica info etc.
Thank for your opinion:)
@@RAMUNI-Viking
thanks
Flot arbejde med samlingerne! Kommer du til at stå og mangler tømmer kender jeg en god træpusher der arbejder i ask og eg i en fantastisk kvalitet. Glæder mig til at følge resten af projektet 😁
Tak ven:) det skal jeg lige høre nærmere om ved lejlighed:) får brug for nogle planker gerne i eg til at lave rammen på taget som skal holde tørven på plads
Your big ax is that what they call a side ax just bevel on one side?
This one in particular is double bevelled, but for this job it would work better if it only had bevel to one side so it doesnt bite into the wood so much
3:26 No one talking about he lifted a fricking tree like nothing??
no voice over is good, no need to have someone blabbering on the whole video. if you wanted to put info along the way, you can do it with subtitles, like how primitivetechnology does, but a little sum up at the end works well.
im really intrigued by your accent, definitely scandi, Swed/Finn/Dane not sure, but you also sounds really northern Irish?
Thank you for the feedback. Much appreciated. Im danish but I used to spend alot of time in Northern Ireland and with friend from Northern Ireland in mainland Europe. I play folk music and did a lot of exchange with musicians from Derry:)
Nice work but holding a piece with your hand and chopping towards your hand is asking for a serious injury. Clamp it, wedge it or hold it with another chunk of wood. Ricochet is a BITH.
Thanks for your concern:)
@@TermiteUSA i just rewatched to see for my self. As far as I see i feel very safe with the work positions in this video. Maybe a camera angle is decieving. Is there a particular shot or time in the video you are concerned about? Maybe there is something i am not taking enough care about, so i would like to know so i can reflect:)
