Takes a minute to load the video, but worth it. 2017 Sundance film festival selection also.

Excellent example of working with wet wood and the elasticity that hickory has.The tools used also.At least it looked like hickory to me.Could be wrong.

No Andy, I just enjoy watching people who are good at their craft.  Especially when using old hand tools.

Ed, the bark looked like hackberry to me

I think it's probably ash. Ash is what lots of traditional basket makers used.
 It's fun to watch a craftsman work with his tools with such ease.

WOW, Excellent Craftsmanship. Always wanted to do that with the ash trees back in Michigan and build a trappers basket. John
