Something TOTALLY Different - Welsh Clog Dancing

Not anything to do with muzzle loading, but I thought it would interest those who follow the old ways:

Kees,  You're absolutely right, nothing to do with muzzleloading.
BUT
Enjoyable just the same.
I was watching the Cossack variation and thought, Gee, wish I would have tried that when my knees would sustain it.  Now, I would just fall over.  Groan!
Fun video.

What interested me was the tools used to make the clogs.  They were just super sharp, the way the maker cut across the grain with the first knife.  I was impressed!  The dancing later was an added bonus....   :hairy
