Friends, here are some fascinating facts about the kelo wood being milled in this video from chat GPT:
"Kelo wood, also known as "kelohonka" in Finnish, refers to naturally dried and weathered pine wood that has been dead for many years, often decades or even centuries. The wood is usually from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) trees that have died standing in cold climates, typically in the northern regions of Finland, Sweden, and Russia.

Here are some key characteristics of kelo wood:

Weathered Appearance: Kelo wood has a distinctive silver-gray color due to the natural aging and exposure to the elements. This weathered look is highly valued in various design and architectural projects.
Durability: The slow drying process that occurs naturally over many years makes kelo wood extremely durable and resistant to decay. The wood becomes dense and hard, making it an excellent material for construction.
Insulation Properties: Kelo wood is known for its excellent insulation properties, making it a popular choice for building log cabins and saunas in cold climates.
Aromatic: Even after many years, kelo wood retains a pleasant, resinous scent, which adds to its appeal, especially in saunas.
Sustainable: Since kelo wood is harvested from trees that have already died naturally, it is considered an environmentally friendly and sustainable building material.
Due to these characteristics, kelo wood is often used in high-end log cabins, saunas, and rustic furniture, particularly in regions where it is readily available."

"Hello friends". It's been too long since I heard that classic opening

It's a pleasure to see you again Sir.

Dude can legitimately rebuild society

I'm convinced Advoko is a certified genius who just wanted to get away from all the stupidity and chose to Leonardo Da Vinci some inventions in the woods.

Good to hear from you!

"Why not just do it the easy way?" is a question asked by people who are very unlikely to ever experience the joy that comes from truly doing it yourself. I find it strange that in this modern age, so many people have become more amenable to taking on easy "DIY" projects but have become entirely disdainful of complex ones. We are here to create and transform. We place part of ourselves into everything we do and many people have been robbed of that opportunity and the drive to explore that part of themselves by modern society. Your channel and Primitive Technology are among the few channels on Youtube that I feel confident are run and entirely driven by real people seeking real joy in their lives.

The epitome of a craftsman workaholic. Kind enough to film and share his knowledge. Appreciate you Adovko!

It's truly insane how good you are at cutting that straight by hand

You are my favorite craftsman.

You may be my favorite YouTuber of all time. Thank you for being you!

These types of videos became such a rare treat on YouTube. No over hyping or misleading thumbnails.
Also so good to see you well

Been waiting for the English version! Thanks!

Advoko MAKES is one of the greatest channels on Youtube, significantly raises the average :)

I was just thinking today you haven't posted in awhile. You're honestly my favorite creator because everything is well presented and down to Earth.

This man is such a stud. He even convinced people to pay him to bowl. Hat's off!!!

Rarely have I seen a channel more deserving of 1M subs. Let’s gooooooo!!!

HE HAS RETURNED

Good to hear from you again Sir

You are one of the best hidden gems of Youtube, polished to perfection

It's great to see you back. I hope the political environment/war hasn't negatively impacted you.
