Thanks Belinda ❤️

Why? White people have cut all trees already. There is nothing left for nature to give that white people haven't destroyed.

Quetzacoatl was white

@@wes4192 No. Quetzalcoatl has two forms. A celestial form (represented by the feathers) and a terrestrial form (represented by the serpent). Quetzalcoatl can not only take the shape of any race but also any animal. The White Quetzalcoatl is a distortion and does not fit into Olmec canon, the oldest canon. Quetzalcoatl can never be pale because without melanin acting as an electrical conduit, he cannot connect to his celestial form. melanin reaches to the brain but not if you are pale. The neuroelectrical signals in the brain can be picked up by melanin electrical properties and sent through a sort quantum tunnel. This is why his preferred form is either a dark man, preferably a black man, or a melanistic animal such as a panther. Pale people are literally biological AI, restricted to the material plane.

@@TemplarX2 Ha. Nah he was a white dude. Blue eyes. Why else would he have been so revered by the savages?

@@wes4192 There is no evidence Quetzalcoatl was ever white. Shut your heretical mouth. Only demons are albinoid.

Thank you Thomas, glad you enjoyed the film.

Give me a chainsaw any day!

Its changed from quality over quantity back then to quantity over quality these days.

White Australia this video reeks of white privileged aussies. Racists

@@thecoolestkidinkalkallo9621 Fuck up.

zabaleta yo mumma fool

the pyramid on the roof of parliament house scam requires an additonal 250,000 immigrants per year duped into the satanic united nations slace system otherwise the pyramid scheme would collapse. plus on top of that 1 million international students here at any given time. studying rocket science . Hahahahahaha.

Hey!!!!!! great to see your channel is still kicking!

You are right. These shows have no filter, no re takes, no acting.. Just pure true knowledge of the past

Cooking is good too, as long as it's not only about desserts

couldnt agree more too much crap on tv these days

People can watch whatever they like.

Thanks for the feedback and glad you enjoyed the film.

Same. Swinging a lovely Cyclone Kelly Dandenong by the look of it.

I couldn't even get my chainsaw through an old jarrah railway sleeper

@@wickednotes1 They specced Jarrah through a swamp near me. Re purposed 20 of them a few years ago, turns out you dont mitre Jarrah, square corners are nice.

My wife and I toured the southwest on our honeymoon. I remember looking at the old photos down in Pemberton and thinking how tough those fellas were back then. Beautiful forests.

I’ve traveled your beautiful State. Immense.

i dont owe nothin to no one.

@@G-G._ you owe thanks to your daddy for ya baby peepee

@@albertkelly7129 drop ur address. im not into all this internet sht

@@G-G._ pussy

@@G-G._ Yeah dude nightcore and animated series is badass, you could prolly knock a timberman out in one punch

Good luck. Like all skilled craftsmen, those guys were making very hard work look a lot easier than it actually is through sheer skill and experience.

me too.

Modern life isn't very fulfilling.

Yes still standing.

I wonder if Bill and Mark are still around???

@@markfarnay1330 Doubt it

@@markfarnay1330 Hi Mark, Bill is 85 this year and living in Laurieton Haven Retirment Village. Sadly, Mark passed away several years ago. Bill was awarded an AOM for this work and his time starting up a Chainsaw training school called Chainsafe with Barry Maxgregor.

@Greg I'm guessing survivor bias also play a part in that

They do burn great to in case of bushfire🙄

@@stephanecoffin1799 Much depends on the type of building, its construction, type of materials e.g. combustibility rating, fire retardants, combustibility and management of fuel loads around the building/s, gradient of the land and fire fighting preparedness e.g. water source, pumps and delivery system (e.g. sprinklers, agricultural crop water cannons etc.) There are a number of good publications on the subject, for example; The Australian Bushfire Safety Guide by John Schauble. Stay safe.

every council in australia is unlawful. no authority. unconstituitonal. in breach of the constitution.. we had several referendums last time i think being 1988 and we all said NO to councils. so what are they still doing here with everyone now in locktown. yes exactly. many of us know.

Ummmm, you do know a lot of the original Europeans in Australia didn't choose to move there voluntarily right? Bit more of a "have to learn how to survive here because it's where I've been dumped" situation

A lot of them died in the process. Heaps of people who came out here died prematurely.

blob blob and transportation went on for twice as long and with twice as many convicts in America, but no one talks about convicts over there affecting their society.

Great - thanks for letting us know.

And they used to, to make their windows. It was quite hard to bring glass in on the rough tracks so they stitched together fly wings, which they cut off with the axe while they were cutting the timber

Hi Phil, great story thanks for letting us know. Keep up the good work.

How long ago was your bush walking trip?

I remember that it was hot so we were trying out the idea of walking through the evening and into the night. We then lay about during the day. So probably January or February 1985. We kept on running into pig at night so didn't want to do it again.

Nice

Thanks for sharing!!

Meaningful work, that’s the secret to a happy life. Not the bullshit jobs so many of us do. You’re not alone. Best wishes to you.

That’s great knowledge mate. I’d love to do some of this kind of work. Being a chippy now we just bang up houses quick

DeanS753 Hi Dean, yes it an amazing time-capsual and great that these fellows were trying to preserve the old skills. Even better that it's so beautifully captured on film and and now available on the internet.

DeanS753 Using mainly high grade quality steel tools (axes, hand planes, hammers, chisels, tenon saws & sharpening stones) & their brains, my great grandparents & grandparents built high quality wardrobes with ornate, near matching, scroll work & finished them off by varnishing them with only shellac & methylated spirits. They were rock solid, as the joinery was perfect. Today, I get lazy, unskilled, young blokes complaining about the wide range of power tools that they do not know how to use correctly. They want just one machine that they can simply chuck a block of timber into (without even making any adjustments), expecting that it will spit out a completed chair (& expect such a machine to cost only a few dollars). It is a bad workman who blames his tools. (However, also not acknowledging a poor choice when deciding to purchase low quality tools, as well as a lack of common sense & skill defines a bad workman). It is refreshing to encounter a young bloke like yourself who understands & appreciates such high levels of woodworking skills which, sadly, seem to be almost forgotten today. (I was born in 1949, & saw some amazing work).

My ancestor came out from a place called Lusatia in 1854 ( it was sandwiched between East Germany Poland and Chzech at that time, now its basically a part of East Germany ) he was in his native Wendish tongue known as a tischler (builder, carpenter & cabinet maker) and when he and his family arrived here in South Australia they settled in a place called St Kitts in the Barossa..I have pictures in a family tree book my late Uncle published of the home he built with his own hands with the help of his sons there and its amazing to see it still standing to this day, though it was restored in recent years. with a heritage like that, and a love of working with my hands I enjoy doing woodwork and watching amazing skills being put to use by people like these in this video it inspires me even more.

www.tesarskahut.cz We are keeping it alive ;)

@@catey62 , I have Wendish ancestry too, arrived around 1860/70(?) and built a life in a similar area I believe. Built their own Lutheran church among the other things people needed to start a community. My parents visited the place a decade or so ago and brought back a dried pear fruit from the original tree that was planted. I do wonder where my share of the land went lol. I have the tischler in my blood, always loved building my own things from hand.

Thanks for watching!

You're welcome. Thanks for the feedback.

lol, John EC Australia.

I agree. When I was a kid and later as a teenager, I would sit with my father or uncles or grandfather and simply listen to the men gather and talk and tell yarns. Back then, this is how most men behaved, dressed and talked. As a kid, i found it very reassuring, but miss that typical masculinity in todays very correct Australia.

"They were fit didn't even raise a sweat." nor "break their back" either...

Hard work doesn't break your back. Using blunt tools will...

Thank you for letting us know. Glad you enjoyed the film.

Hi Betty its Jason McManus I used to work with Bill and work on your farm I hope you are both doing well.

@@jasonmcmanus6169 Hi Jason, both doing well, Bill dealing with the usual back deteriation and now Pulmonary Fibrosis (coughing badly) but you can't keep a good man down. Hope all is well with you.

@@bettyboyd8300 All is well Betty thank you Bill is as tough as the axes he swings .

You're welcome. Keeping the skills alive.
