(Gränsfors) Why the axe handle of model wildlife is thinner than model hand?

I do find the net entertaining and you are a part of that.

I have said nothing that wasn't true and have pointed out what has been said that was incorrect.

Please carry on....

You actually refused to provide any evidence for your extraordinary claim.

Surely if it were possible to use less of a given material to increase rigidity this would be of interest to engineers, yes? Surely there would be something written somewhere about it? Or you could explain the reason for the behavior and how we could reproduce it ourselves? By all means, please educate us, if this is true.

Are you being petulant?

Go shave some wood and learn something.

No, I'm asking you to answer a question plainly asked instead of sidestepping, which I infer to mean you have nothing to defend your position. You don't even make any remark about what challenges you expect me to encounter with the wood bending--any interest in explaining what, based on your secret knowledge, you expect to go awry? Because I've not been running into anything I haven't been able to troubleshoot so far and none of it has to do with rigidity...

Support your claims or admit you can't. Anything less is childish. I've provided ample support for my position, and have countless other examples at my disposal with a simple Google search. ALL of it supports my position. I have asked you to provide one single source of scientific evidence for your assertion and you resort to snide remarks. Is your position that indefensible?

Literally up to you if you will stay ignorant or go learn something.

In the mean time you can keep calling me names in an effort to make it personal.

Point out where I called you names. I literally didn't. I said one of your responses was petulant and ridiculous, which it very much is, and said that someone failing to support extraordinary claims nor admit being wrong is childish, which it is. Still up to you how you want to handle this situation, but you've raised a scene instead of simply backing up your position. When asked to explain, you dodge the question. Why is that? I'm happy to learn something--I'll even thank you if I do. So far all I've learned is that you either cannot or will not provide evidence for a claim that flies in the face of well-established science and engineering.
 
Like, legit, if the dynamic you describe is real and true and repeatably demonstrable it would have far-flung impact on the world at large and unlock incredible and novel design. To be able to remove material but actually make the object STIFFER than the original form in doing so? I would LOVE to know how to do that. Please, elucidate.

Well ya, it was done thousands of years ago.

If I could buy you for what you know and sell you for what you think you know I would be a very wealthy man.

By whom. Give me literally a single verifiable example of this. If I were in your position I'd LOVE to be able to point to actual examples and describe HOW I was right and WHY for the education of others. Knowledge is a thing to be shared. It would be, by contrast, extremely embarrassing if I publicly talked up my own knowledge and belittled others and then couldn't provide any evidence for my claims when prompted. Being confidently wrong is shameful enough without doubling down on it.

Look guys, gary3 is just trolling you to stir the pot. 42 and TN have demonstrated expertise, g3 has demonstrated that he knows nothing & he just wants to rile you up. Just move along - never wrestle with a pig, etc.

No I'm not that way, just calling out bad information put out by internet experts.

I will put this discussion to bed tomorrow or the next day depending on my free time.

I genuinely look forward to it. But you could also simply state one historical example of a case where material was removed from a wooden component in a way that increased its rigidity. Even just name the culture. It would be infinitely more explanation than the zero we've gotten over the course of all of these posts.

You have provided ZERO information.

You're nothing but a troll. And not even a smart troll.
