Laurel and Hardy are woodworkers at a building site filled with electric saws, hammers, their own talents, and Charlie Hall. Which is to say, they are doomed, and I am going to laugh at all of them.
Notice their essential friendship, and the look of astonishment on Ollie's face when he thinks Stan has betrayed him. Notice also that all of Stan's injuries to Ollie are acccidental; and when Ollie loses his temper and attempts to hurt Stan, it backfires.
This also contains one of the Roach Studio's classic auto gags. It was a specialty and had been one since Harold Lloyd was doing short subjects there.
