The variety of axes...just like that US Forestry video. Awesomely tight tolerances. I'm guessing this accounts for the use Of green wood and the expected shrinkage as it dries. I'd love to see the heat source they planned on using.

I bet Those dudes could work the average American couch potato into the ground.

And the monkey presses the button.

I have a book somewhere about westward expansion, settlers not having time to let logs cure, so they would put them up green and just chink with moss to keep the air flow out and would build a fireplace which they burned all winter longer, which dried the logs out causing them to shrink and creating a tighter corner joint, after a year or so, they would then put in a more permanent chinking
