Viking life was anything but simple , even for simple nordic peasant.

Hey, your Videos are so amazing, thank you for these impressions. I Love the intromusic of this Video. Is there an way to download?

Excellent channel. I really love your style. Its all incredibly wonderful and takes me back to simpler times in my life filled with more wonder and imagination. Thank you.

Lovely video. I'd love to see more detailed images of your folding knife without your hands all over it!

Love where you are going with this Build Project - as the son of a carpenter myself - I'm really enjoying the concepts and reality of how to build from scratch with basic tools. I never saw that type of drill before - and would love one of my own. I do wood working, with and without power - and honestly - I like making stuff without power tools much more. Would be even more appropriate for me to try this with more "viking-age" tools and see what I can do as well. Thanks for such great inspiration.

thanks for sharing this project. enjoy the process.

I'll be watching every step. Thank so much for your videos.

I have been doing some research on Scandinavian houses and came across your video about building the work benches so you can get started building your own house. I immediately subscribed so that I can learn more through your research and work. Looking forward to this project.

Coming to grips with natural materials and the proximity to natural weather and other conditions is quite satisfying.

After a full week of airsofting, having an anxiety attack due to studies, this, this video was exactly what I needed!

Hi friend ! Which kind of wood did you use to craft those benches ? Pinewood ?

Looking forward to seeing the viking house build! I hope to finalize some land in the next 6 months, and want to build a temple on it!

Only found this channel recently. Terrific. Skal .

Excited to see what you do on this project.

Glædelig jul😉

Thank you for such an awesome video and how beautiful was the interaction between you and your daughter. Her feet shod in love from Katy from NZ 😊

I am so happy I stumbled across your channel-it was your video about Viking bread and I found the whole video interesting. I am a 71 yr old reenactor living in Canada. My persona is 11th c. Hiberno-Norse living in Dublin so your videos are fascinating. Thank you for sharing with us.

I truly hope that you go viral and get millions of subscribers. ❤

Tillykke med de nu 6770 følger 😁 jeg håber virkelig du får dit eget sted op og kører 😁 jeg er i en vikingegruppe der selv er ved og starte en vikinge landsby op hvor vi også vil bygge smedje og andre bygninger her nede på Lolland Falster!

New and subscribed here i just found you by accident ,got a few things to catch up upon

Man, am i siked for this! That auger is a sensational tool!

The lack of archaeological evidence for the use of a shaving horse in the Viking Age also annoys me a bit. Unfortunately, clear evidence dates back to the 15th century. If I need to use a shaving horse for something, I replace it with a simple "invention" that I copied from this video: czcams.com/video/P5QVKqw_B-c/video.html

I to love old tools & have a few. I am excited about seeing you build a Viking house. I really enjoy your channel. I will be watching!

Love this working on getting a house so I can have a workshop and not just hope for the best outside.

Inspiring

Cool video!

Super nice my friend... Keep it up! 🙂

Beautiful video and image quality. Are you using another light source as natural sunlight ?

That was so relaxing that I immediately watched it through a second time! 😄 Love the spoon auger and the shavehorse! Do you use a little wax or something to lubricate the auger's friction point near the chest brace? I agree the Vikings must have had something like a shavehorse. We know they had drawknives, and I can't see how anyone can use a drawknife without some very sturdy way to hold the workpiece and brace the force of their body against it. Most likely it's a survivorship issue - the drawknife being iron means it's expensive enough to look after and keep safe. A shavehorse would likely be considered easier to replace. I imagine when they eventually wore out or broke down beyond repair, the wood would be repurposed into something else, or simply burnt as firewood. And even if it was just abandoned in a field, it'd rot away and we'd be unlikely to find any evidence of it a thousand years later. Good work on the benches too, they look like they'll do the job nicely! A low bench can also come in handy, like the Romans used. You can place one knee on the workpiece to hold it down to saw. Or sit astride it to hammer and chisel out a mortise. I'm not sure if it would come in handy here though? It's fantastic to see that you're already beginning work on the house! Can't wait to see the next installment! All the best my friend!

Thank you very much dear friend for the wonderful video🌲🙏🌲 Have a great weekend🌳

That auger is absolutely gorgeous and such a simple looking tool! Im loving this series and can't wait to see the finished house!!! ❤

Thank you for these Videos. I am so excited for this Project 😊

Another beautiful Viking video, educational, and always a pleasure to watch. In my opinion you deserve an OSCAR for it. Educational Viewing pleasure Entertaining Historical Highly addictive

Well narrated, u drew me into the movie and imagined the lifestyle u describe. I surely would be so happy to sit with u and enjoy your bread snack and the environment. Thank u for sharing!

Awesome information for those looking to do reenactment or building off grid only using hand tools.

Can't wait to see the finished house. This is calming in a chaotic world.

So the fun begins! Curious about the oak? Is Scandinavia abundant with oak? This is going to be fascinating! Thank you

Nice introduction to get started with building your Viking house. 😃 Interesting drill never seen before and beautiful hand-forged tools. I'm already enjoying it and am so looking forward to the next episode. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video with relaxing music!  Feedback Mensen zoeken ook naar

I absolutely love your videos and how calm, relaxing and also inspiring they are. Thank you for all your work!

Now THIS is a series for me!!!

Look into the "Low Roman Workbench" primarily researched by Christopher Schwartz. Evidence of it exists from Pompeii to Roman Germany and use all the way to the last 100 years in Estonia. While there's no concrete evidence of it being used in VA Scandinavia, I think that it is unreasonable to say it didn't exist in some form, especially for the tools used (aka Mastermyr find, etc).

Have you looked in to the so called roman workbench? These are far older and wider spread then te roman empire... They where used far into the middle ages. Often pines where used (in holes) to sprop work from moving. I Have seen sugestions of the use of wedges as well as the use of Y branches (ash for instance) in the same way metal hold fasts are used on a "modern" workbench. The problem with workbenches and shavinghorses is that they are made of wood, and that they decay. Also it would be the first thing to go in tomthe fire if you are low on fire wood. They would have been a cumbersome object and not something to travel with. It is my theory as a woodworker that in the viking age the workbench and the shavinghorse would have been seen easy enouth to make on location that theybwould have been left behind if traveling more than a short distance (eg. within the vilage).

Hello, love your videos. If your area floods sometimes would you consider builing your workshop on stilts?

It's always a pleasure to watch your videos. My compliments to you, you are truly a multi-talent, you are contagious in your passion for what you do, the sparks fly, you radiate so much passion and enthusiasm, for the things you do. SUPER!!! I would love it if you could make a video in the future about the clothing, I love your tunic, it looks great. Maybe it might be useful to give some good addresses where one can best buy something, there is a lot of cover among the wheat, I don't know if this is also a correct saying LOL. Keep going.

Exciting! A new beginning! Heart and soul,....brain and brawn,....goes into each piece as you become more and more a part of the house. The hand making of things puts just a little bit of you in everything,...even in these work benches. I can tell that prior to working on anything that you do, much thought goes into each piece, to make it as authentic and functional as possible Thank you, RAMUNI, for the immersive experience that your filming and editing gives us. You are truly an artist in all that you do.

Beautiful video, thanks for posting this.

Looking forward to see how this progresses.

Great video brother..love seeing period tools in use . Can't wait to see this project come to life.

Love the spoon drill. Did you make it or buy from a smith?
