The Stanley Book of Woodworking Tools, Techniques and Projects

Gerrymet on Social Media

Gerrymet are on a range of social-media: Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Tumblr, Google Plus, Pinterest and even the book-sharing platforms that are the Google Books Library and Goodreads.  Plus, of course, we're here!

On a weekly basis we share not only details of the saw blades and tooling accessories we supply online, but also informative videos and news about anything woodworking related. Some days we'll post details of the saw blades you can buy from us, while on other days we'll post a documentary on furniture making or joinery.

Anything that catches our eye that we think will be of interest to our customers and social-media contacts.

So if you're on any of the websites mentioned above, click on our pages and we'll also connect with you.

It would be a pleasure to share the tooling and woodworking news you also post online!

Lumberjack Woodcutting is a Sport

As well as an art, woodcutting is also a sport. Read about the woman who won the 2018 Stihl Timbersports Women’s Division Championship. 2018 is the first year that women competed on the same stage as the male athletes. The sport pits competitors against one another in timed wood-chopping events.

The Stihl Timbersports Series is a series of competitions based on wood-chopping. To compete against each other the athletes use axes and saws, using the same methods as lumberjacks. The competition was founded in 1985.

You can read more on Wikipedia about this woodcutting sport by clicking - Stihl Timbersports Series
