Episode 9 - My Insanely Awesome Barr Timber Framing Chisel

I ordered my first Insanely Awesome Barr Timber Framing Chisel several months ago but finally opened it today!
It's a 1 1/2" wide timber framing chisel that I will need to help me build my Timber Framed House.
I got this handcrafted tool shipped from barrtools.com/ in Idaho in about 3-4 days.
I will hopefully pickup a 2" chisel as well soon!
My hope is to start building a small 12'x16' Timber Framed hunt camp and then eventually my 24'x36' Timber Frame House. We wanted to buy high quality tools so that we have them for a long time and know that they have been proven to get the job done right!
Along with this I purchased a 12" Speed Square from Amazon to help my layout my Timber Frame cuts.
Thank you for watching!
Until the next one, keep Living the Northern Life!

Thanks for posting. The website didn’t give dimensions. I wasn’t sure how long it was but it certainly looks great.

[@LivingtheNorthernLife]

Any time!
It will need to be sharpened when you get it.

My wife and I bought a 1794 inn in NH which is a timber frame. I’ll be doing all repairs in a traditional manner. Check it out if interested. I’ll give you a shoutout when I get my tool.

Renewed colonial

[@LivingtheNorthernLife]

I will check it out for sure!
Just subbed to make sure that I get notifications.
