Hello thought I show you some photos from two old books I have in swedish. There is no copyright claim in them because they are so old :).

Look at these pot hangers...


I have never seen such chairs before...





How they made tar using a pot upside down on a modified stone...


Christmas gift idea?


How they made metal thread in the old time...


Building a boat house...


Cool table...


Dwarven hut?




Clog maker...

Great photos! I love looking at old photos like that, really brings home how things have changed. What are everyday life skills then are now specialist skills today.

Don't suppose you have any other pictures showing any details of that ?
