Japanese and German hand hewing of beams. These folk are full time timber framers using hand tools only so make it look quite easy. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ueIB0h4SzHc http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=j506cXGvOPg Hope you enjoy them. __________________ bowls made on a foot powered lathe http://www.robin-wood.co.uk/index.htm book on the history of the wooden bowl http://www.robin-wood.co.uk/book.htm
