    I've already named my garden loppers Cindy & my pulaski Roman so I think I'm on top of this trail building game!

    I have never seen a woman swing a 20 pound sledge, let alone that proficiently.
    I am impressed!

      You didn't, you saw her swinging a 10 pound hammer. Of all the bars, only three were digging bars, the rest were aligning bars from the railroad.

    Abe Lincoln used to say “give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.”

    I think the young-uns that made this video should have learned from the "An Axe to Grind" videos as well as the written PDF that goes into more detail. There is a reason for a properly curved edge on an axe, as well as a reason for Not driving in wedges across the grain when hanging an axe There are a lot of places that aren't forested with soft woods. That said, good on them for getting out there and doing it. Hopefully it will encourage more to do the same, providing they get a bit more in-depth safety instruction on working/cutting logs, especially in hilly terrain.

    Ive never seen anyone do this before, but i found this video relaxing and I want to own a small axe now

    the part about head shape is completely incorrect. the rounded face of the axe focuses the energy over a smaller surface area and so is a more efficient use of energy than a flat face

      Thanks, came here to argue this myself. I understand what he's getting at, but it's not about concentrated energy. I think what should have been said is that the two curved objects share a smaller area when they overlap -() than a straight object and a curved object do -D.

    What's the double-bit in the sharpening part?

  • @davidrdudley
    @davidrdudley 3 года назад +2

    The idea that a curved axe bit is not ideal is incorrect. If you are chopping a round log with an axe bit with a deep radius without moving your position, different areas of the sharpened edge will hit the log as you swing the axe deeper and deeper. There is a very purposeful reason axe bits are curved and the logic in this video showing an axe bit coming into contact with a flat board is oversimplified. Curved axe blades make sense for curved logs.
