    That's a wonderful solution for elderly or disabled people. I know that a hatchet is probably a better solution for able-bodied people, but for those with issues relating to coordination or joint pain, this would be far easier and safer.

  • @jtaylor8606
    @jtaylor8606 Рік тому +1

    Does it work on thicker bits - so starting with a chunk of 2*4 or similar and gradually cutting that down to kindling size? All the vids I can find of this design show it working well cutting thin bits of plank, but usually I'm starting with timber that's bigger, and it's not clear if this would be up to the job. Also, the example where the axe didn't work was when it came up against a knot. Does this work with timber with knots in?

    @johnhhh3591 3 роки тому +1

    Very cool. If Grandma were to have the grandkids around, I'd suggest you might design a locking mechanism of some sort. Maybe one that would cover the blade when not in use, like in the garage. Kids might just root through the stuff, and an exposed and fixed blade isn't something they'd be on the lookout for... But wonderful invention!

    • @av8orCH-47
      @av8orCH-47 2 роки тому +2

      I'd be sure to lock all the kitchen cabnets with anything sharp, too. And make sure the kids are wrapped up tight with bubble wrap before they leave the house...and make sure they have their helmets on to walk down the street. Or.....just tell your kids not to touch stuff. But you do you.
