Pallet wood axe handle TEST CHOP

Chopping down a tree with my homemade pallet wood axe handle. Ever since I made this axe handle out of pallet wood, lots of folks have questioned if it could actually chop down a tree… well, here goes! It wasn’t the largest tree… actually pretty small, but it was at least a bit of a test to show that the laminated pallet wood actually can hold up to a small test☺

NOTE: One change I made with this handle before I chopped the tree was to replace the original pallet wood wedge with an aluminum wedge. The other wedge had loosened up a bit and I figured it was worth the effort to ensure a successful test.

Here is a link to the original build video if you’d like to check it out
Thanks for watching:)
