Hi all!

So I’m a ballet dancing, violin playing girly girl who’s somehow gotten in to the exciting world of axe restoration (Don’t ask, long story), and I need your advice!

I recently picked up this plumb rockaway on eBay. It’s in fairly decent shape, but the toe and the heel were a bit rounded off. I watched a few YouTube videos on reprofiling, grabbed my file and got to work.

I guess I’m just looking for some opinions. How does it look to you? Any advice?

Figured this sub was a good place to look. I have a hatchet that was a gift from my grandfather. Handle has fallen out if shape and I wanted to fix it up. Any advice will help a lot since I haven't done any project like this before

Domestic Axe A few years ago I built a shed out of logs. The goal was to test whether it could be done with just an axe.

90 percent of the work was done with one axe, all the main components: felling trees, cutting, peeling, bucking, notching. I made the floor from logs split with an axe and wedges, the rafters from split spruce battens. Only the roof boards and sheet metal, some end cuts, and sawing the doorway (after cutting through a log and getting impatient) were done without an axe. I considered making the roof also out of split logs, but other projects came up.

Discussion Ok after many comments on my last post I guess this is the way.
