Very cool. He would do better than 99% of this country if the grid ever went down. Skill sets to be proud of.

Serious craftsmanship there. Impressive.
I got to play with a bow powered wood lathe at a renaissance festival many years ago. It was foot-pedal operated, too, but instead of a flywheel, it used an overhead mounted bow to store the foot supplied energy.

As I was watching, I thought "he's really good with a chisel."
Then I thought "That's a pretty decent table leg."
Then he attaches it to a monster chisel. Very funny.

You see in this world, there's two kinds of people my friend; those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig.

That was extremely cool. I have a fairly well equipped wood shop with both power and hand tools. While I love to do any kind of wood working, I get far more enjoyment out of my hand tools. Thanks for sharing that video. I bookmarked it so I could watch again.
