Before he became known for playing perhaps the single-most recognisable smuggler in the galaxy, you may be aware of the fact that Harrison Ford was actually very much immersed in the field of carpentry.

However, coming equipped with the ability to master all things wooden isn't always a great thing when you find yourself on the set of an incoming blockbuster, as Mark Hamill would hilariously recall to Empire.

Apparently, on one particularly stressful day, Ford took to literally sawing his beloved Millennium Falcon to bits on the back of production on an Original Trilogy flick leaving him rather frustrated. As Hamill would explain:

"People were coming up to me. going, 'You gotta stop Harrison, he's sawing up the Falcon.' It was made of wood and he just took a saw to it. I love Harrison."

In that same conversation, the Luke Skywalker actor would also recount a tale of Ford jigging his way into his dressing room to the sound of Andrea True Connection's "More, More, More", only to completely no-sell the antics the minute someone arrived at Hamill's door.

Give us more, more, more of this Ford...
