Yeah his method of making a pivot point hole in the log was cool. Doesn't looks like the hammer has a bunch of power but pretty neat method none the less.

I love these videos. Making something from nothing.
Awful lot of work to make a nutcracker tho. :biglaugh:
Reminds me of that little bird thing that dips forward to take a "drink" now and then.

Cool to watch the build. For fun, I'd have tried a couple vertical side posts near the hammer end to keep the head from jumping sideways in the strike zone so much.

Yeah that was a good watch!

Agree some vertical sides would keep it in line better. Hey it would make a great Christmas nut cracker.
