Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I have always loved this guys videos. So much so that he is one of two youtubers (the other being the primitive technology guy) that I have donated my own money to specifically. However, this is not an artisan. This is a bunch of guys in recreation outfits trying to figure out an old technique. A true artisan would cringe at the irregarity in those cuts.
If you want to see a true artisan do this type of thing check out the ‘Alone in the Wilderness’ films by Dick Proenneke.
