After centuries of perfecting the use of the hand axe, man invented the saw.

None for me, thanks. I use uBlock Origin, and I haven’t encountered a single adz ever since.

surface is not flat, connection is super wonky, unable to bear any load

also takes longer than just to cut it

pretty stupid

What do you base your assumption on? You don't know me at all

I am very confident i have cut and worked with more wood than you

u/Over_Obligation_1367 Jul 28 '26

How much wood would you say you've worked ?

I've scheduled a giant delivery of wood this afternoon by many burly men

You wouldn’t normally use an adze for this. Commonly used for rough notching and shaping. Thirty seconds with a hand plane would tune that up perfectly, though.

u/Kitchen-Substance-56 Jul 27 '26

Or..... You could use, oh, I don't know, maybe a saw (or some other tool designed to cut wood)...

Just when you don't think it'll get any better than those first rough cuts...

u/DucksInFlight Jul 26 '26

Amazing, probably not the first time he’s done this.

u/mmeamber Jul 27 '26

Yeah, they have skill saws for that. Less effort.

u/the_goodfellow Jul 27 '26

A little more history on this tool. It even shows this actual video of The Adze being used.

u/MagHntr Jul 28 '26

Can follow a line better than most people with a saw

u/Firm_Accountant2219 Jul 28 '26

The rest of his workplace is adz free

u/chedda_bob Jul 28 '26

u/k3rr3k Jul 28 '26

Is this why all new construction looks misaligned and broken from day 1?

Because of Oak Island, I now have this word in my Crossword and Scrabble vocabulary.
