About a year ago I forged a reproduction of an ancient japanese carpentry tool called a yariganna, or yarikanna. It may not look like it but it's a primitive form of the handplane, used to shave thin slices to give a smooth finish.
It may not be quite true to real historic ones due to my lack of experience as a blacksmith (and having never seen one in real life) but it cuts. Leaves a nice scallope

Literally all that humans need to build wonders are properly-shaped little bits of steel at the ends of wooden sticks. None of it is all that hard.
Industrialization has brought us many amazing things but it has also in many ways led us to…
Cannot stress how important this is. With steel tools you can build *anything*. Don't even need that much of it - chisels, axes, shovels, knives, planes, saws are all that's needed.
The simple, pre-industrial, human-powered tools may be l…
So efficiency matters, and the processes of blacksmithing naturally result in little bits of iron too small to work with - cracked or burnt ends that get cut off workpieces. Those little bits are good material, locked away in an inaccessib…
