I've been thinking of making scythes and axes but I don't really know how to cut a hole into a log, I only have a jigsaw, saw, table saw, miter saw, and drill.
By hole I'm talking a square hole of course. I can't provide a pic of the log since it's genuinely missing, and I don't know what kind of wood it is since I just found it in the street. But I still want to know a method on how to cut a hole on a piece of wood for handles on future projects

💦Does this mean that you want to insert the ax into the hole in the wood in the photo, not drill a hole in it? I tried using the translation function but it didn't work. Sorry.

It works by magic! Of course!

#

Or is that an impact drill and it's chopping away the edges as you go..... Funny

Anywho I'm with QP, learn to chop a mortise with a chisel and you'll be set

I'm pretty sure it's all AI mashup now.
