Making A Lap Vise In The Woods, Condor Greenland Pattern Axe

In this video I make a lap vise in the woods, using my axe, an awl, and some wedges. The lap vise, also called a third hand, is a tool that is used to hold a piece of wood in place while carving, commonly used when carving spoons. The axe I used is a 26" Condor greenland pattern I have had for 3 years. It is an amazing axe axe and I would highly recommend it.
Thanks for watching!

One of my viewers suggested that I should make a Lap Vise, so I found your video and subbed. Thank you for this video.

I love it. You had my attention all the way to the end. Great idea. I do some wood carving so I'll have to get busy and make me a lap Vice. Good to see you. I thought I'd seen everything. Look forward to a new video soon. Hope you're doing well. Have fun and be safe.
