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.
 
Fascinating social detail :D :approve:
Thank you for posting :cool:

Sweden is reknown for the linen spinning and weaving of it's womenfolks.
Don't suppose you have any other pictures showing any details of that ?

cheers,
