    Aside from a hatchet, a froe is my favorite wood working tool

    Very nice demonstration. Once again, I've learned a lot from this for my own woodworking craft! I bought a froe some years ago and I've been hesitant to work with it - seeing you definitely gives me motivation to get back to it. Thank you so much for sharing!

    I like those small wedges and will have to look at forging a few.

    The sounds on this video are outstanding. That oak really chatters the entire time, does not want to give up.
    Great demo, your swing seems like it's almost Tai Chi.

    Those are some nice blanks you cut for the staves! All my local tress are much smaller. I would require about 4 different logs to get the equivalent of what you got out of 1!

    There is no better sound than the splintering of wood fibers

    Wow, that is some sweet, super stable oak and you did it all with hand tools in no time at all, super impressive. Would love to be the proud owner of those bits of "off cut" sap wood/bark, farless the heartwood. Curious that you only set the wedges with the steel hammer, then switch to the wooden "club", is that because it transfers less vibration than steel?

    Where do you get those wedges. Did you make them? Nice video

    Bro.... You must have a lot more time on your hands for this stuff than I do. I can't watch too much posing

    Great demo! How long was the log dried before quartering, or was it done right after it fell?

    Why are you using a free branch instead of a steel hammer.

    Wow, could you be anymore dramatic with the choreographed swing?

      It ain’t the meat, it’s the motion!
