Peeling peeling peeling

Now that we have stools and enough peelers and enough people to help we have three people peeling all the time. It is great to see the progress.
On the right there are the peeled posts (nine 4.5 meters long) and beams (nine 3.4 meters long).
On the left still to be peeled nine roofbeams, nine purlings and eighteen braces. In the pile there are also beams that we dont know yet what we will use them for but they will probably be peeled anyways. 

 The logs are attached to the carpenter's stool by something called a dog. It is hammered in the stool and the other side is hammered in the log. This way the log stays in place when we peel.

Concentrating.
