This is the part they don't show you in minecraft. Gives a whole new level of respect to Steve.

@JennyKampmeier 3 года назад

That crackling in the wood when it starts to split is super satisfying. Great video!

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

It really is! I could listen to that sound all day. Thanks for watching!

@Harris4465 10 месяцев назад

It really is great to hear when the log is on the ground.

@dejavu666wampas9 3 года назад

No one has mentioned that VERY brave bug, walking right towards the wedge, while you were swinging the big persuader right at it. Gutsy little insect. I’ve hand split many such logs. It gives one a great respect for wood. Awesome video.

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

You have to have respect for oak. So impressive in it’s strength, yet so wonderful to work. It’s amazing how long it holds together even when it’s practically split all the way through.

@nathanielerman4258 3 года назад

I’m absolutely exhausted just from watching this.

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

haha 😂

@wesleyofficer1237 3 года назад

That sound just makes me smile! It's been over a year since I split a log.. 😞

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

It’s definitely a beautiful sound. The log makes you work for it, though!

@BlueCrow89 9 месяцев назад

This is such an arduous task! But damn, that crackling from the word giving way is SO SATISFYING!

@spaltedwoodsman4368 3 года назад

Man, you’re one tenacious woodworker! I don’t believe I would have even attempted to rive such a huge piece of oak. I watched to the end just to see you conquer that log. Very satisfying. Well done!

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

Thanks man! I always tell myself I’ll be done in 20 minutes... I’m never correct.

@jirikurto3859 2 года назад

I watched to the end but I was wearing a blindfold because I didn't want to catch covid so I didn't actually see any of it. I didn't get covid though so I am super thankful.

@outlaweric 9 месяцев назад

oh the sounds lol. Great job and thanks for the video

@charleslane6108 3 года назад

That’s a record time of 9 minutes and 14 seconds. I couldn’t have done it that fast. Good on ya bro!

@ryanmiske2178 Год назад

This is awesome. Absolutely love this.

@jonnyramsden1161 Год назад

Nice! Just been taking my first forays into riving and I've got a book that tells you loads of techniques but is low on detail, really helpful to see how you've approached that beast of a log in this video! I've not got anything this big but have plenty of stuff that is too big for doing with a froe on its own

@ryanwalker1825 2 года назад

That's a funny looking mallet

@mightyjo3young 11 месяцев назад

Awesome job!

@tingle2958 3 года назад

Damn, that's a stubborn chunk of wood. Nicely done

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

It definitely made me work for it!

@LitoGeorge Год назад

For all that effort, you got a new sub. Bravo

@rickschuman2926 3 месяца назад

The handles on those clubs are going to get you quite the case of tendonitis.

@dathaniel9403 2 года назад

I think investing in a slightly larger axe (or something besides that little hatchet there) would be a wise move, lol. But I gotta hand it to you, you got it done with the tools you had. That's an incredible level of dedication. Well done, Nic.

@NicTaylorWoodworking 2 года назад

Thanks! you’re right, a large axe would make this job much easier. If I had a constant supply of fresh cut oak, I’d probably invest in a nice axe. Sometimes you just have to make do. Cheers!

@wesleyofficer1237 3 года назад

And nice truck 🙂 I miss my '85 and '89 and my '94 (broke it in half hauling a 20ft trailer of wet green polar 🤷🏼‍♂️)

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

Thanks! It’s a 2001 with a lot of life left in it (hopefully)

@coedlan 3 года назад

That looks like a sure-fire way to break the handle on your froe to me! They're made to be twisted but not in such huge logs. Nice work with the splitting though.

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

haha, yeah. I definitely should have split that piece down one more time before using the froe. I think I was a bit excited to use a new tool. Cheers!

@coedlan 3 года назад

@@NicTaylorWoodworking it's nice to see someone being humble rather than defensive. As I said before, great job splitting down the log - especially in that sun. I've been loving your videos too

@mikean1123 2 года назад

Nice.

@davidhawk8916 4 года назад

Good work and congrats on the first video. The editing and pace was well done! Where did you get the log? Any plans for the lumber?

@scottbarlow9259 3 года назад

Sure looks like the hard way to make tooth picks to me. But at least you got a good work out. 😄

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

a log this big is best for Chopsticks :)

@thomashverring9484 3 года назад

Holy crap, Nic! I hadn't seen this video! That was impressive! Almost as tasking as game night, right? 😁 Do you still roll them dice?

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

You know it! We’re super deep into Rime of the Frostmaiden. It’s been really fun, but it’s a beast to run. You have a campaign going?

@thomashverring9484 3 года назад

Sounds splendid! We're playing Warhammer Fantasy (tonight, actually!). Dark and gritty-and very funny. The campaign is one the GM has made himself.

@wakawaka808 4 года назад

could you please provide the types of birds used for the soundtrack?

@davidfry9042 3 года назад

Wow.... no wonder our Great Great Grandfathers only lived to 60....

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

Haha!

@theNerbFace 3 года назад

Are you using this for the timber frame?

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

Yup! i used part of the log to make pegs and wedges for the frame. The rest of it will dry out and be used on something in the future

@petemack1745 2 года назад

Use a sledgehammer to drive metal wedges!

@exstock 3 года назад

If a tree falls due to disease, is the wood still good enough to be worth riving?

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

I’m no expert, but as long as the wood doesn’t feel soft or has some other obvious defect, I’d use the wood. Even if it does, I’d rive off the bad parts and keep the healthy wood. I’m sure there are some diseases that would make the would unusable, but I just go by eye. If it looks and feels strong, I’m happy to use it.

@exstock 3 года назад

@@NicTaylorWoodworking Good! I've had a few monsters fall in my woods (oak, maple, gum) and though the already fallen ones have probably been on the ground too long, I've got plans for the next one that comes down!

@NicTaylorWoodworking 3 года назад

I’d definitely take a look at the oak logs. Oak is extremely rot resistant and takes years to fully dry. It’s used a ton in boat building, actually. You might have some good wood waiting for you.

@exstock 3 года назад

@@NicTaylorWoodworking Hrm, what about sweet gum? I've got one gum about 24" in diameter that's about a year past falling, and one about 30" which has been down about 6 months (but shattered a bit coming down). I do also have one smallish post oak (~12" diameter) that's about 3 years past falling but not in ground contact; that might be my best bet. Judging by my inability to lever any of them up so much as an inch, there's a whole lot of something there! Thanks for the inspiration, and the sore muscles to come! ;)
