Wood clogs

This is really cool. Its a Swedish video from 1923. (No sound, obviously) Its just mesmerizing watching this guy make wooden clogs with very basic hand tools. A true craftsman.
Heres a translation of the video description:

In the forest areas west of Borås was woodcrafts a regular chore. See how a pair of wooden shoes come to the King Säters parish and a wooden spoon and a chair in Bollebygds parish. The film was shot in connection with the Jubilee Exhibition in Gothenburg 1923

Thanks for passing on this find, Tim!
