It is amazing that he spent all that extra time with that beautifully intricate connection with no screws when it's totally concealed and not noticable. I have to imagine that it will stay tight and last a lifetime without pulling loose or weakening. The 0 space between every connection also.......this kinda woodworking is fine ART and im deeply impressed.
Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you very much for your hearted reply. As I've said before I saw many a splendid thing in China but nothing to rival Japanese craftsmanship. It's always an absolute delight to see the level of perfection being crafted before one very own eyes. Kind regards.
Flumoxxed, flabbergasted, amazed. Wow, the combination of precision and art is breathtaking. I find the joinery in western timber frame to be incredible. This is several levels removed.
The time and attention to detail that goes into each and every joint is AMAZING! I am a wood worker and I am also in the construction industry. I had the pleasure of seeing some real Japanese carpenters finishing out the interior of a nice Japanese restaurant and I was blown away by the quality of their work. Japanese carpenters are simply the best carpenters in the world by far! It’s no wonder that the oldest wooden structures that are still standing are in Japan.
To be fair, the reason Japan has some of the world’s oldest wooden structures is because they didn’t have to deal with constant invasions that would burn down wooden buildings. The same can’t be said for Japan’s neighbors. Asian wooden buildings being continuously rebuilt after being destroyed is nothing unusual, including in Japan.
@August Hayek The largest wooden building groups is the Forbbiden City in Beijing. Comparing with that, the Japanese wooden palace is nothing. BTW, the tenon-mortise structure is invented in China and has been widely used in architecture since very ancient time. Japanese learnt the skills from China and now likely want to claim its their traditional skills. Shameless.
The process is very exotic. I think it's a kind of spiritual way to offer your respect to nature by turning wood into a creative artwork. I am very new to woodworking, a fresher. Can any one tell me what wood is the craftsman working on ? Is it Pine wood ?
Woodworking Enthusiasts what beautiful and precise wood joinery and no glue screws or nails wow Nm I am very impressed really nice craftsmanship I love it.Thanks be blessed.
The Japanese in general, and fine tradesmen specifically, are such perfectionists (meant as a compliment). My question is: Are they being PAID by someone to do such painstaking workmanship? If so, where can I get such a job! A hobbyist can well afford to work like that, but is the Japanese economy set up for such professionalism and does a boss allow such patience?
I'm sure there is plenty of artist here in the states that can accomplish woodwork on this level. The thing is that for this kind of professional work someone would have to pay 10 times more than a "normal" job. I have to imagine also that this guy takes immense pride in his work and to pump out subquality work would be dishonorable to himself,his employer, & the customer & it isn't an option. Where here in the US so many people don't take pride in their work and it's just a paycheck to them.
In thoes day if you build a house that fell down you have to fall on a swords. And the samurai sword back then was as so sharp as that hand plane. It could cut a man neck and he still walk around for a while and don’t feel it till his head fall off.
Don't get me wrong, I love these joints & watching the craftsmanship. But the end of the joints are hidden when the thing is put in place, so why not use an easier joint. Is it to do with earthquake proofing the structure?, otherwise I feel it's a bit over the top. Couldn't price for a job like that.
Joseph Sacco things are often done very differently in Japan, they do this for the art and sense of accomplishment. It doesn't matter if anyone else sees it. Definitely not for the money or the easy way. Sometimes I wonder if we actually have it wrong and they have it right.
I completely understand the ethos. Don't know if the building is a temple, then the input is for their deity. But in normal construction another joint would be workable. I work with wood & if I could take my time I would make the best I could. But they have to earn a wage as well, so they must be paid to do there best. In the west we made fantastic pieces of furniture & oak beamed building, but people do not want to pay for that nowadays. The artistry has gone for all but the few who can afford it.
T Stedman I often wonder how the tradition of complicated joints and the reverence for the wood came about. We know that Japan was isolationist for a long time and outside influences weren't felt. Did they have large cashes of iron to make nails with as being isolationist they weren't importing them? Also was wood a scarce resource, I know some of their forests are sacred and cannot be used meaning that a joint with out nails had to last a long time as there wasn't the wood to simply replace a beam or whatever. I'd like to know more about why they do things as they do.
If you have ever seen someone bind up a strip of wood on a table saw & send it flying across the room like an arrow at a high rate of speed then you would totally understand the reason. then there is people carying long stretches of lumber on their shoulder and like an old Charlie Chaplin movie or 3 stooges they bonk you in the head. Granted accidents of these natures are rare but a business and insurance companies would rather be cautious and prepare for the worse than end up with a dead or injured employee.

@@garyindiana2127 there is multiple power tools in the shop not to mention an overhead crane. maybe the PPE he is wearing is overkill for the job he is doing but it is like driving and one of the first things I learned being that you may not have to worry that you aren't being safe but there is no telling what other people are going to do. who is to say that his coworker over there wasn't up all night drinking and got no sleep then does something extremely careless and dangerous.
The fit of the joint at 3:30 tells it all...totally wonderful.
I really love the music at the beginning
It’s like putting together a sophisticated puzzle. All the pieces have to perfectly fit together.
Eine Freude ihm zuzusehen! Ein Sahnestück was er dort hergestellt hat!!!

The angles, the smoothness, the joints.... Amazing!
Very nice video sir
A real talent that took years to perfect and probably a handed down family skill..
I would feel very honored to live in a house made with such great detail

SkyFox - you are a sad sick sorry loser@SkyFoxAira
@SkyFoxAira
Have you been to Japan and seen any old wooden constructions?
To be fair, the reason Japan has some of the world’s oldest wooden structures is because they didn’t have to deal with constant invasions that would burn down wooden buildings. The same can’t be said for Japan’s neighbors. Asian wooden buildings being continuously rebuilt after being destroyed is nothing unusual, including in Japan.

Yes, the oldest wooden structure is in Japan en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hōryū-ji

The respect is for the craftsmen ship. In the hands of an inexperience wood butcher it would be so much fire wood.

Incredibile
1000%, but I would make it in Oak, without knots, and in shorts for sure? Thank You, I enjoy those craftsmen, never seen in Europe.
pura perfeição um artista e mãos de veludo show de trabalha parabéns
Haha 😂 nice One whoever you are.
There should be a lottery where the winner gets a house built by Japanese master carpenters.

If so, where can I get such a job! A hobbyist can well afford to work like that, but is the Japanese economy set up for such professionalism and does a boss allow such patience?
what kind of wood is that?
Quality of wood and time allowed, not a chance in our USA. High speed production lines rule here.
I'm sure there is plenty of artist here in the states that can accomplish woodwork on this level. The thing is that for this kind of professional work someone would have to pay 10 times more than a "normal" job. I have to imagine also that this guy takes immense pride in his work and to pump out subquality work would be dishonorable to himself,his employer, & the customer & it isn't an option.

With the music at background 🤣🤣MINECRAFTT!!!!!!!
This is woodworking pornography.
I build musical instruments for a living. And I'm stunned by the quality of the joints here, in house carpentry.
Please make some that have female artisans doing their work because I love watching them, May be I am a woman phobia person
In thoes day if you build a house that fell down you have to fall on a swords. And the samurai sword back then was as so sharp as that hand plane. It could cut a man neck and he still walk around for a while and don’t feel it till his head fall off.
Makes all other craftsmen look like amateurs.

Maybe because the joints doesn't require nail/screws. They're snap fitted.

They are not doing it to show them
It developed as an architectural style of a country with an earthquake
The piece of art is then hidden for ever, disguised as a frame. Such a shame.

Is he scared the roof will collapse?
Too over engineered. Not very cost effective? Maybe an endless pot of money on that project?? Great skill though!
To glue or not to glue that is the question.in my view you use glue .

見ていて緊張するのはなぜ？？？。一度組んで（枠材）隅の目違いを払ってから、仕上げの削りをすると、汲み上げた時に目違いを気にすることが無くなる。くさびを打ち込む時点では、枘を３分位伸ばしておいて、くさびを打ち込んでから 余分な部分を切り落とす。見えなくなる部分なのでどうでもいいことだが、緊張しました見ていて。
Похвальное.

for what? for mouse? not economical
All that work and he forgot to glue the joint.
Don't need glue fool.
Don’t be so rude you fool!
