Film Description:
Real time video, following Lucas Stephens hewing of a piece of timber, ready to use in the restoration of a building locally near Jevnaker, Norway.
I have had to make timber by hand like this a few times, it is not that much slower than using a chainsaw mill, since there is less to set up. The chain saw is just used to make clear guiding lines and instead of juggling, which helps with the speed of the work with the axe.
