My name is Popescu Petru from the commune of Astraja and I said the other one
They make wooden shoes clogs and wooden soles
The materials must be wind-dried
To make the offerings fly
Let me look for them here
Carved from raw wood and left to dry for at least 2 years
Now I give it the shape of a loaf
I'll show you how to make the shape to size for example 18
I give the circle diameter and that's the exact size
The exact chip for the size
And here I give it with 14
Yes because it's narrower up there
14 centimeters and a difference of 4 centimeters
Let it be straight and beautiful
If I place them next to each other they form the round shape of the vessel I want to make
First me with this big jaleul raobang
I went out to the right not to stick to the wall
But some are so I know of one
Beautiful
And I'm taking this little one now
I'll measure it
Do you see how it is It's exactly measured
Now on top it's good
Now it's good
He went to
the mill The pine is not good
Because the fir tree has a bad smell but the pine tree has a nice smell
I give it 17 millimeters at the bottom
Copy exactly 11-12 millimeters
To have somewhere to end up
If we give it the exact measure from there we have nowhere else to turn
We draw the line
I am now in a roundabout
And when I give it to him in the can I give it to him in this bigger size with 18
This is the can
I joined at 86 years old
I also cook go to the farm sometimes and do some things
He cleans
it Goose wing
I did this for a man from Susauea
I made two windows and two doors
And it had a mule's ears
It's also a stunted one but it's number 10
Write the number 10 I think Size 10
Original appliance since this seamstress
He gave it to me for two thousand so that it would remain with someone who uses it
From Austria-Hungary
This is a stamp
This is a stamp this is a stamp
Left over from dad
These are mason's tools
It's an unfinished coffee
On the day she died she said she was a pyromaniac to burn the second circle
She died
She's been here for 2-3 years under your bench and I said I'll continue
I learned it not that I learned it I stole it
I knew exactly how to do it all along
They need four
I want to put them on all of them so they are like that
These two deserts will ensure you doubt
A neighbor had a fig tree here near a well
Rarely found in the fields on the borders among such people
From the forest it is abundant
They might trample they might doubt
It's better to have a longer one by more than a centimeter
Let measure the top circle
The fiber must remain along the wood for a long time
To doubt but if it shortens like that it breaks
It is dark here
When it can break
It is 37
millimeters
The top part is thicker the bottom part
is thinner Circle
Because it's conical
8 millimeters
They cut them in half
These are the ones I give like that
This is the thick part of the circle
I have to keep going until I reach the lines
I need to mark exactly the line I drew
I want to be sure that I am not already working
Because there is a lot to do
He twisted it he bent it like that
If he's going to break let him break now
So that it doesn't bloom
Traffic jam for an hour or so in a
If he passes this test it means he's good
Because this part is thin and this part is thick
Some cut you don't need to cut at 90 degrees
I need to cut some of the thin part should remain longer
Here I went a bit too far
Here you can see that I cut exactly on the lines
One stops others stop one another
Have half a millimeter maximum 2
It's still too much here
I need to take a bit more
I'm thinner here compared to here
When they merge together
Otherwise hit the object with the hammer
Some cut with the chisel
I'm not allowed to hit the length of the log with the chisel
Break it
The bay the bay
I am heating water
So we'll leave about 50 minutes
He pulls it out from
Ushering so as not to
I'm sorry
I will come back in a while
Let me know where the measure is
Shall I put him in the stocks and one more
Hello 15 by 13
It's not stuck no
You have to take the part from the outside
It sticks yes but
I need to put it inside

To enter the garden
The wine is inside or maybe it's a bit bubbly

Something is visible here
And we tighten the circle a bit more

It needs to be close close to the size of the worm
