Hand Tool Rescue's Yule Log to Toothpick

Where is the narrated version?

HamOnTheCob

So I showed my wife the last few minutes after I spent the first 2.5 hours glued to my phone watching this riveting, could not stop watching entertainment. I said to her "I can't believe that is how toothpicks are made", she replied "That's really how they make them" , I had to just walk away before I got in trouble (again). Thank you for this wonderful moment of messing with my wife.

Your dedication to the craft is both inspiring and befuddling. I’m sure your chiropractor laughed all the way to the bank when he saw this one.

Hahaha, amazing.

Hand Tool Rescue

Interesting!

Also, my 17 year old pug, whose alzheimer's is getting pretty bad, is watching this with great interest while I work. He's not really a TV dog so you have apparently found the only genre to interest him.

This is absolutely going on in the background while we open gifts Christmas morning.

OooooooK

Not sure whether to use a "Gun Show" joke, or a "Snakes on a Plane" joke, but this was definitely the best Die Hard movie in at least twenty years.

Is this how Canadians keep warm in the winter?

Never was.

THIS is why I am a patron!

Why not?

He is not just ok, he is fantastic!

Mac-da-Bits

Dude, are you ok?

You just won modern art, now tape that shit to a wall. seriously though, this is the stuff of mythology. I can just imagine some Norse demigod having to chisel a tree into a spoon to de able to drink from the lake of eternity to find his real mom and ask her about how Odin knocked her up. You're a god damn legend.

Fear not, Mr. HTR. A vaccine has been approved with another on the way, and the King has been deposed (altho he doesn't know it yet). Our long dark night approaches the dawn!

If I could only have you near To breathe a sigh or two I would be happy just to hold the hands I love But they’re calloused as hell because you’ve been making toothpicks again.

Old Crow Bourbon

Thanks!

Alaskan Rock Vodka

Must be some long cold nights up there in Saskatchewan. Even Johnny Harris might not stop by.🤨..😉

This would pretty cool to see in time lapse, watching them shavings build up to the point where you almost could the vice 🤣 then the ending I was damn laughing so hard, the worlds most expensive tooth pick 🤣🤣👊🏽

But... why?

Ah... the warm holiday sounds of the shaving of a yule log 🪵. It inspires us all that you keep the old traditions alive! I’m off to the North Sea 🌊 to catch fresh herring to pickle with eggs for Christmas Eve dinner.

Marc McKenzie

Me too! I think there was a part of this story, where the owner said, we have to make the process better: lets make toothpicks faster! (but still 1 log 1 toothpick)

Frenky

You are insane!

Glenn Severance

You should frame it. 🎅

I kept expecting you to use a smaller plane but nope...not our HTR! Go big all the time. Well done.

Brian Myers

I could only remember this cartoon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jn4k2TPIJf0

Mauricio Mariano

I can't believe by body didn't give out.

Hand Tool Rescue

😂 Insanity! But the ending! LOL!

Stephen Boots

I thought he was just going to use a lathe...then I saw the length. I almost feel like I should up by pledge level...feeling gone!

Brian Myers

You are crazy! I did two loads of laundry, baked a cake, road my exercise bike 10 miles, and gave my dog a bath while watching and/or listening. I love your quirky sense of humor. Ha! Ha! Actually, I fast forwarded about 98%, all the while hoping I did not miss anything. Thank goodness you saved the best for the end.

Janet Dupree

If you close your eyes, it sounds like Pinocchio having a good time

Bukka

EPIC!

Steve Seidel

"Ooh! a new HTR vid to watch while eating breakfast! Cool! .... Wait, the whole log??? " *checks how long the video is* You. Magnificent. Bastard.... Bravo.

Clifton Ballad

Every time I see that fireplace I think of The Friendly Giant.

Mac Armstrong

Maximum ridiculousness!!

I painstakingly colour-corrected, audio-enhanced, and framed every second to ensure the perfect painful watching experience.

Hand Tool Rescue

It took 4 cups of coffee but I watched it. Worried you would drop it in the shavings. Glad that didn’t happen.

At least the edit was easy.

My grandfather worked so hard in his childhood he died at the age of 3. Not from the hard work but from emphysema.

John McCormick

Next do one using every chainsaw you own. From cutting the tree down!

Brian Myers

Thank you for this...I needed it today. Haha.

Brian Myers

I should do one for this video where I just debate myself over what is and isn't a sandwich.

Hand Tool Rescue

Me too!

Hand Tool Rescue

Next video is a nativity scene converted into a shipping pallet 😂

I've ordered 4. I hope they ship in time for the holidays.

What? No narration? Are you slacking off?

Just like grampa used to make!
