More Carving with the Husqvarna Hatchet - Buck Saw Strut

Today I carve the main strut of my buck saw. I initially used a measuring tape and a set square to make out the centre where I would not carve to give me a guide when using the hatchet.
The video x10 speed until the end where I show the result of the carving and discuss a major error that I made. Although very disappointing it was a good lesson for next time.

Hey Colin, Just a little tip on cutting with knife, hatchet or chisel. Take a pencil and draw out the shape on your wood you want to end up with before you cut. That will give you a reference point or guide to go by.We have an old saying in carpentry,,,,measure and mark twice and cut once. Hope this helps. Cheers, Bill
