Nicole's face sanding the wooden handle at 4:10 is one of the funniest things I've seen in my life.

So much innuendo, so much acting. Nicole definitely understands her audience.

Yoda: Strong in this one the innuendos are

A fine example of determination, improvisation, strength, skill... and Humor! This is such a good channel. 👍

If more people used protection on the shaft, the world would be a better place.

"Work with what you have." Wise words. Great puns; visual and spoken. Also, good double entendres! You are a breath of fresh air.

The perfect video DOES exist! And I really needed it today. Thank you so much for sharing, Nicole, It's so joyful to watch your adventures!

"Well, not the first messy thing I've gotten into....I should call her!" 🤣🤣🤣

One of the first handle replacements I did was my grandfather’s eight pound sledge. It had a single metal step wedge in lieu of any wooden ones, much like this maul had. The handle had been cracked for years, so I thought it would be a good welcome home present to replace it for him while he was on a week long trip. I panicked so badly when I realized the wedge wasn’t coming out easily. I barely had time to finish it before he got back.

ROFL - The puns. I love all of them. Sanding the handle and the face "You know! It's fine" I know it's childish and dumb, but it still made me laugh.

Haha your face lady when you are sanding the shaft... Priceless. Congrats on persevering on getting it done.

I’ve found the best way to get a wooden shaft out with a metal wedge is to light a fire and stick the head in it with the wood left in. Burns out and the wedge is left. Also helps burn the rust off too. Would be good to see you try that in the next video!

When you’re sanding an ax handle, just imagine that you’re in a beautiful park with lots of trees and flowers, or you’re petting your dog or kitty - or somebody else’s kitty. It always works for me.

I love seeing tools refurbished. It breaks my heart seeing tools just tossed out when there is plenty of life left in them.

The frowny face at 4:11 is great. Great video :)

The real question is if the axe is okie dokie or not. Also, hope that snack break included a cookie!

and today we learned once again, how important protection is! btw it's nice how you handled this situation.

Nicole, thank you being yourself!! I’m old enough to be your grandfather but I enjoy your sense of humor and double entendres! You seem like you are very intelligent and self sufficient. Take care out there in the wilderness, and if you want to be adopted let me know!

the look on your face when you realized how sanding the handle looked was an amazing bit of acting lmfaooooooo

Great job, the face you made while sanding the handle was priceless.

I swear I love this woman... She always makes me laugh 😂

Gurl, i love your vibe and your videos. You're smart, funny, relatable and absolutely you (and damn right you should be : everyone else role is taken). Keep slashing wood with axes, swords or whatever and DYI-ing your stuff. It's simple, honest, positive, mind satisfying content (dare i say calming and soothing ? yes i dare). Keep doing what you're doing :) Lots of love to you, from random me somewhere on the other side of the world wide web :)

Thank you for a wonderful hilarious and weirdly entertaining axe-perience! ❤

In carpenter axes there is a back wedge - not always it might be, but I had one, and it helps both ways.

As usual, beautifully edited and super funny! Thank you!

Nicole always brightens my day

Even the cheeky puns are super wholesome. 🥰

Nicole is incredibly versed in woodcraft.

You crack me up Nicole! I love your videos and your subtle humor!

"I should call her" never gets old. Write as many as you can.

thank you nicole for posting this video it shows your determination an brillen kind mind p.s your shorts videos are funny an fun to watch also.

As a woodworker and electrical guy ....Nicole! Ur killn me with that abuse of the " wood" chisel and flat head screwdriver🤣🤣. I thought for sure she wasnt going to be tempted with drinking the cola...lol. well now we know what is does to metal. Yikes! My guts hurt.. laughing and in pain🤔🤦🤷. Any who great job, persevere and love the smile. Keep on keepn on👌

Your videos are funny, entertaining and also a teaching lesson!!

Love your videos, especially the longer ones like this. You're so cute and definitely know your stuff!

Very funny take on this task. Great sense of humor. Thanks appreciate you

You are truly enjoyable to watch!

Nicole. ypu truly are one of the coolest Gals i have seen in a long time. Keep up your great work. Lots of love and respect out to ya.

Thank you for bringing a smile to my face love your vlogs. Stay safe.

Please don’t think of my comment as sexist or whatever. You are an extremely adorable and accomplished young lady. It is obvious you were brought up right and respect hard work. Hats off to you as it appears you have done most of this yourself. Just an old guy who wishes I had a grand-daughter like you. Your smile and attitude light up the world ! Thank you.

I'm just a city boy, but it wasn't easier to put the axe head in a campfire, while also cooking a couple of sausages? 🔥🌭😁

Oh very well done Nicole!

Crazy how such a teeny tiny little piece of metal can make for so much work! Nice job!

2:08 "Not the first messy thing I've gotten into.........I should call her." Damn, she cracks me up!

Actually sinking the head of the axe into a block to work on it, is totally in the category of "Oooohhh, I wouldn't have thought about that at all, but in hindsight OF COURSE" :D

I've never been so entertained so much by someone chopping wood . Good work young lass

I love your warped sense of humor......you had me laughing throughout this one.......

Love your determination❤and your ability to restore. CHOP ON NICOLE!!!⚡❤️⚡

You are awesome keep it up!!! So inspiring.

Coke classic is also an excellent windshield cleaner! Pour it on while it's raining, let it soak a little, wipers it off! Clean and clear!

Love to watch u again and again❤❤❤

I've had the same frustration trying to remove broken handles from tools like axes, hoes, rakes, etc. It was fun watching you "handle" it.

I think this might be my favourite ever vid uve done 😂

Hey, good work! The one handed split though, that's showing off.

"Not the first messy thing I've gotten into....I should call her." Worth the price of admission.

That was wonderful!! I love it. Thanks for sharing.

Your videos are better than Netflix. Thank you 😊 💓

You won my heart. Subscribed. I have a lot of videos to watch now.

The pleasure gained by watching this video is on a different level to anything that I've experienced before.

Your obvious distaste for sanding is hilarious! I've never seen anyone so averse to a little sanding! Thanks for sharing.

Heck yeah, represent West coast being the best coast. All the love from a fellow canuck.

This video made me giggle. No double entendre or sarcasm in your voice or body language all Nicole. Happy Pride!!

facial expressions while working are simply priceless

"Don't meddle with a wedge" ... "I should call her"

Unbelievable beauty in every aspect! WOW.

That is the first time I've seen a drawknife used one-handed 🤔 Surprisingly effective! 5⭐

Omfg soooooo many double entendres in this vids and i fully suport them all 😉 always love the "i should call her" hidden easter eggs in the vids, perfectly placed randomly. Ps: killer chopping and so hot the one hand chop too.

Fun to watch, just a pleasure..very much in awe

Just love the sound of your voice.

Nicole, I've been there, not always by choice. Great determination to see it through to the end!!

You handled that handle quite handily. 👍

Handel was be like 😘😘😘😍 keep going almost there 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I don't normally comment on videos but omg you cute, funny and have an amazing personality. Keep it up love your content. ❤

I love the "I should call her" jokes so much.

Great puns Nicole!

You handled that head and shaft just fine . 😂

Pretty good endurance!!! You sure do make some interesting gestures

"Not the first messy thing I've gotten into.... I should call her." 🤣🤣🥰🥰

After all the refurbishing was done I swear I could hear that axe giggle with delight when your were splitting wood with it.

I confess that an old fashioned wood rasp is the best way I've ever found for shaping a newhelve to the eye but just as you showed Nicole "you run what you brung" 🙂. If they aren't available there, let me know & I'll find you a good one in a yard sale & send it over.

You did great sanding that shaft.

It's fun and a little informative to watch.

Happy pride, Nicole :)

Danke!

Nice restoration

I keep telling myself-“that’s what she said”..😮😂 Just found your videos..love it! ❤

Love you and all the shaft jokes

Thank you for all the laughs. You turned an otherwise bad day (for me) into a tolerable one). I look forward to seeing your videos when they debut. You're quite the entertainer.

Very nice great job! Just like new again! Have a wonderful week!!

I'm lazy, I would have just chucked the whole head in the fire to let it burn out. I loved the "Uncomfortable lesbian face' during the sanding. It was priceless!

Nice action on the sanding

It’s like screaming in pain…. Lovely 😂😂😂😂😂

Throw it in a fire and walk away. No point breaking your other tools dealing with it that way. Love the videos. Keep them coming.

Lol the aggression at 2:11 after "I should call her".

Me: *plays the video* Nicole: "okie dokie 😊" Me: *presses like immediately*

The coolest sock would be her doing the wood hook topless

Hahahahha Love your face when sanding

✓ wood puns ✓ shaft puns ✓ messy things pun (call her) 😂

All ya gotta do is drill out the wood from around the wedge, makes it simple and easy

Wow. You really had to pound that over and over again from every angle possible. Hard and fast, then soft but precise. Just giving 'er exactly what's needed while taking care not to damage your own tool! It is a lot of work, but the sense of accomplishment you get as you finally finish is what makes it all worth it! "Just pretend I have a metal wedge". I heard her say...
