Those kinds of videos are one of the rabbit holes I've gone down on YouTube. One I watched a few times was a cabin being built I think in Scandinavia by some guys with nothing but hand tools. The quality of the build was fantastic, it was really incredible to watch.
Sweet, I didn't watch it to see if it was the same video, I didn't want to lose anymore time.LMCane said:Max Power said:

that is this guy in Sweden.
an entire awesome house BY HAND with no power tools!! Like Abe Lincoln.
three years of backbreaking work day after day after day.
by himself with a dog.
the skill it takes to build an entire house by hand is insane.
Mfer. There goes the day. I love these videos.LMCane said:

I built a three-by-four raised salsa garden box this weekend with the aid of a miter saw, three drills, a skill saw, an orbital sander, and a belt sander, and it was not nearly as well put together as this dude's log cabin that he built with primitive tools. Hats off to this dude.

I also got 10 blisters and 25 splinters just watching it. How does he not use gloves?

Oh to be 25 again and have a back that would hold up to that kind of lifting. He's going to feel it in a couple of decades.
Really cool to watch him work. That is some remarkable craftmanship. Thanks for posting.
Don't forget the swimming and bathing in the rivers. We think New Braunfels is cold. I can't imagine.LMCane said:HtownAg92 said:Mfer. There goes the day. I love these videos.LMCane said:

LOL
my thought was- do Swedish people not even feel the cold?!?
because my guy was out in a snowstorm or rain in SWEDEN IN THE WINTER.
with barely a jacket on. Maryland is too @#$#@ cold for me in the winter.
That sounds interesting. Will have to try to find this as well.Max Power said:

This couple has another video where they explain their finances.LMCane said:
I am honestly baffled...
is EVERY chateau in France run down and being bought by foreigners who then completely renovate them?!!
how are there so many people who have enough money to buy a castle, and then also just happen to be woodworkers, architects and home builders?
of course now that I have gone down this rabbit hole, youtube sends me every French Chateau renovation!AggieArchitect04 said:
As an architect this was amazing to watch and inspiring. My 9yo daughter watched it with me. She described it as "satisfying". Couldn't agree more.
My favorite part is when he steals shingles from someone else's building/barn.
