This guy is amazing, not really because he knows how to build these but because of the way he is teaching. He's kindly explaining every detail of what he's doing without any arrogance and it seems like the teaching is more important than the actual building. He's not just getting in the zone and building a canoe. Every school teacher in the world could take some pointers from this guy.

Absolutely! If one has the opportunity to visit your child's classroom, you will see far too many teachers that are arrogant! Humility goes a much longer way on the actual teaching of a child than arrogance ever will! Kudos to Grant and his wife for bringing back a not quite lost art and for doing it in a Spiritual and humble way! The both remind me of Tribal Elders and teachers I have known!

Viewer in Michigan*Canada boarder French Canadein Indian heritage knowledge Thanks for recording this event, I did participate as a child birch bark canoe building & totem pole carving

From experience, when working and creating with these natural material's in a peaceful natural setting, time almost seems to stand still and a feeling of contentment and accomplishment and a sense of being in the present are always there.

@paulheadford65 7 лет назад

im a joiner time served ive been lucky enough to work with many different timbers ,have done alot of carving and mostly hand work up to the point of making my own tools so the comments i make are not empty. I loved this film the way it is all held together no glue no nails , exployting years of wood craft and a good understanding of the living material , i am english and always loved the way a bodger worked with some green timber and some seasoned and useing the lay of the grain as well to make chairs and the like held firm by shrinkige , its a shame that so much of this rich culture is at risk of being lost.thank god for people like these to teach us all ,loved the lack of screaming machines far better the sound of laughter

@boatman222345 10 месяцев назад

Awesome video! Watching craftsmen like this work is a spiritual experience! I live on an island in Maine with highly skilled wooden boat builders and as I've often said to my wife the only real difference between a wooden boat builder and Michelangelo and a skilled wooden boat builder is one worked in marble and the other in wood. Now I will have to add birchbark canoe builders to the list!

@karaquartz2223 8 лет назад

I've started my family on a survivalist path leading to a sustainable village. I can't wait untill we can figure out how to build one of these. A canoe like that and this kind of knowledge is such a great asset. I'm really happy you guys do this.

It’s amazing how the building of this canoe is so educational about their culture.

@marquetteregionalhistorycenter Год назад

Wow!!! Our museum has several authentic birch bark canoes - two on display. Our displays aim to educate on the Fur Trade and summer transportation in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The waves on Lake Superior were so big, the canoes had to be massive! Our collection contains a canoe possibly designed for a child, a fishing canoe, and a regular one used by the manager and president of Duluth South Shore & Atlantic Railway. Awesome video by the way, thanks for giving us an excuse to gush!

@jacquesbilodeau5723 5 лет назад

Not sure how I ended up on this video, but I am certainly happy I did. I remember learning of the birch bark canoes in grade school, then going home and looking at our birch trees wondering how those wispy pieces of bark could possible be a boat :):) Now I know :) BEAUTIFUL video! And an important video for future generations.

What a privilege to watch a piece of art / tool come together. What an incredible wedding present too. Thank you for going to the effort of making this film 10/10. You had me riveted through out. An art that is most important to pass on through the generations. I had no idea that the craft was that strong. Fantastic ! (Puts my wood strip to shame). Well done team.

@joehuettl8966 7 лет назад

Outstanding!! Been wondering since my teens on how they were made...50 years later I get to watch a master do it. Only one thing missing...I'd love to see a short Video on how the bark is stripped from the tree. I, too, always wondered how that wispy birch bark could result in a canoe...now I see that it's like 1/4" thick. That and the interior planking help explain a lot!

@jb1934 2 года назад

its an amazing process to see it take shape, but I'm left wondering how on earth the canoes were being made at the time settlers first arrived, without awl, drawknife, adze, hand drill, utility knife, chisel, c clamp and dozuki saw. I simply can't imagine it. how the functionality of each one of these was implemented circa 1550 would be a documentary in itself.

@ethan.... 2 года назад

To answer your questions. 1.) As you know, they didn't use steel, they used flint. I am a flintknapper, and I can tell you that flint is scary sharp. I've skinned animals and they are just as good as any knife on the market. As a matter of fact, present day surgeons actually prefer obsidian for their sharpness as they can be sharper than stainless scalpels. However, they do not use them because they are brittle and leave liability to break and cause infection if they are left in the body. Also, Natives had awls made out of flint, for draw knives, they had flint scrapers which worked as draw knives. 2.) You have to understand that even though this documentary was used with modern tools, they did not need modern tools to manipulate the wood. For example, they would use deer jaws as saws if need be, but usually, having flint to cut the wood 1/3 the way through was enough to cause a clean break where they wanted cross-cut. 3.)Our perception of time was not equivalent to their perception of time. They didn't have much to do, their entire life surrounded around survival, it consumed their lives and the time within it. To us with modern tools, cutting trees down with a chainsaw, it is unimaginable that they would spend hours hacking at one with a rock wedged in a club, but to them, it was just a way of life. Therefore, the time they spent wasn't unimaginable, it was rather, the quickest way to do it.

@PeteZelchenko 5 лет назад

Wonderful show. My main criticism is that it's not enough to admit that the electric drill is the main inauthentic component. Even if you used a hand drill, this is clearly a post-Columbian design. The workmanship is far too exquisite. I don't see how they could have split and whittled that wood as delicately with any pre-Columbian tool. Forget the electric drill: Goltz is using a Japanese pull saw; a European splitter, drawknife, and plane; and he's definitely going through at least 100 disposable razor blades for this project. The sharpest blades First Nation people had were obsidian, and they were fragile and not to be used on wood. I am sure that after settlement, Natives were using steel knives and so this design became popular. But I am sure that a typical pre-Columbian birchbark canoe would have been a lot rougher in design and joinery.

Birch Tree (huş ağacı) and Iron Wood (demir ahşap). Kanada da her yerde ki bulunan ağaçlar. Turkiye de hiç yaşamadığım için, Türkiye de var mı bilemem.

All the wood is eastern white cedar.green and no knots. Very hard to find where i live. Lashings are spruce roots split.

Is the bark stripped from a downed tree? If not, does the bark regrow?

@timothylongmore7325 5 лет назад

It will grow back if properly removed.

this is beautiful! how much does it weight?

@jonrc72 4 года назад

It's light. One woman can put it on her head (upside down) and carry.

Does it have to be birch bark?

@kristianmorris9738 7 лет назад

Does removing the bark from the tree kill it or does it grow back?

@timothylongmore7325 6 лет назад

If your careful and don't go all the way to wood it will survive and grow back. June , July is best (by far).

just watched ray mears building one very similar. No power tools for one. Two they seemed to do things a bit slower and i would say the final product was slightly better. This is still beautiful though.

how did they drill the holes into wood before they had steel drills? bones? stones? does anybody know how it looked and how it was done?

@whatellerhvad 10 лет назад

They would spin the drill with leather strings, attached to .. a kind of bow... 'ish, which they would pull and drag forward and backward (like a saw) over and over again.

@vandrare7835 10 лет назад

and what was the drill made of? bones?

@frogbear02 9 лет назад

Van Drare Flint, look up flint drill bit.

@timothylongmore7325 5 лет назад

I know this an old post but , an awl made from bone was common. A deer leg bone if smashed from the side will split laterally and then ground to a sharp point. Some square edge left on would held to ream out the hole. Some sources say an awl from a deer antler tine was used but I've never seen an antler that was hard enough to sharpen. The other tool used was the crooked knife. Origanally made from a split beaver tooth. I've never seen one but that's what I heard. Frint scrapers and burins were probably used to drill the holes in the wood. White cedar is quite soft and was worked green so sharpened hardwood pegs would penetrate without a clean hole going allt he way through.
