Gränsfors Traditional Log Scribe

The Gränsfors Traditional Log Scribe is used to transfer the shape of one log to another. The user draws the Log Scribe along the lower log, following the contours and transferring the profile to the upper log. The surface of the one log is thus copied to the other by parallel transfer.

The Log Scribe is hand-forged in a coke fire using a hammer and anvil, and has been developed together with woodsmen who are used to building houses from log to finished cottage. The Log Scribe is therefore a much-appreciated tool that is often used on Gränsfors Bruk’s log-building courses.
