My 6G grandfather lived in North Carolina in the mid 1700’s. He died in 1795. In his will, he left a drawing knife, froe, and iron wedge to his grandson. His valued possessions passed along. Excellent video. Thank you.

Thank you. That’s a good bit of family history to have passed on.

Thanks I do a lot of that. All the components for the chair were converted like this. Except for the seat I sawed the boards for that.

You should keep making videos. Fascinating. I would love to make a cottage like that here in the US, but it would have to be adapted somewhat to the harsher weather in most regions.
