Always a delight to watch. He even clocks his screws. The score, as always, so perfect. So well placed. No one makes videos that come close to matching this quality. The inclusion of real life, Shiro, nature, leaves, fruit, time to take pleasure in life, like a walk with a good dog. Folks this is ART. appreciate every moment. Because you have all the time in the world, until you don’t.

Reading the comments you have to come to realize that the world over people are yearning for quality content.

Greetings from Michigan. What, no mindless host to spout nonsense, no wacky music to crescendo at the prescribed time, no fake storyline to keep me engaged? Imagine that, a real craftsman showcasing his skill, talent, and artistry. This video was thoughtfully shot and edited. Thank you for sharing this wonderful project.
I just went to home depot to have a look at some furniture including a work desk. and this makes me even more convinced that your work is worth a fortune. This quality is above the industry.
Dovetail and miter joints are two of the most challenged for any woodworker. Combine these two techniques into one joint requires zero tolerance in every cut. Thank you for sharing your amazing work. Appreciated- From Australia
You're honestly one of just two or three people I watch through the entire video without fast forwarding. It's always so calming and enjoyable. Such a beautiful piece. It's great to see your steps and thought process as you go through it.
What a pleasant way to stay the day before heading down to my own workshop. You were the strongest inspiration for me to change my life and become a woodworker.
Hello Mr Ishitani, First I’d like to say tht I watch all ur builds tht u post on RUclips and tht u make some of the most beautiful woodworking pieces of art, well to me they are. This is now one of my favorites like most of them are. You are one of my inspirations to woodworking. I hope to one day be able to make furniture as awesome as yours.
Some of your videos inexplicably seem to bring tears to my eyes. This is one of those. A perfect picture of a perfect life that few people get to experience outside of there escapist corner. If the feeling it gives to me on watching is any close to what you feel while actually living it, which I doubt, but still, if it is, you must be one of the miniscule portion of people, who are actually happy. I envy you so much, but I'm also glad you share it with others. Thank you.
it's a rare piece of work that elicits a spontaneous rush of joy, but looking at that close up at the end; the perfect miter, the perfect dovetails, and the perfect little chamfer easing the sharp corner made me laugh. how in the world...? all i can say is, you aren't quite human in your woodworking skills. not quite a god, but certainly more than mere mortal.
MT Yankin in japan is it common to become a master when you have a good master. i always liked the tradition of japanese craftmanship, in other countries like germany there is a training of 3 years and only when you do this other people respect you as a woodworker, i don't like this system. In japan you become a woodworker while working as a assistent from a master and only when the master is satisfied you can call you a master, this can be 10 years or longer. Nearly no one you can find good woodworking anymore, in germany there were extremely good carpenters between 1800 and 1900 before the industrial woodworking began. At 1800 to about 1840 we call this time Biedermeier, you can google this and this are furniture completely made by hand without any electrical machine, there a great masterpieces, the carpenters worked at some pieces 3 to 4 months. This furniture are 200 yrs old and even today this furniture are absolutely fine. For example you can see a furniture from the Biedermeier here www.antik-greef.de/referenz/ref172g.jpg . Today woodworking in germany and in a lot of places are extremely sad you put some chipboard together, do some paint over it and screw the pieces. Additionally as a professional woodworker you can nearly pay your apartment and your income is way to low to make a living of it, only few people can do this anymore.
I am impressed, if I didn't see the video,i would say : "it's made by the machine" ... allways a big pleasure to see you at work, that accuracy .... Nice work !!! Cheers from România
That sliding saw is to dream for. The home and workshop seem serene. I.... for some reason... I like you never answer... the mystique is palatable. The editing is worthy of an award. The work is worth more than I can afford. I set my seasons waiting for your work.
What a great start to the day, it’s my daughters birthday and I get to watch one of your films as well fantastic enjoy to watch as usual you are a true craftsman
wish there was narration, like what wood he's using, design, etc etc...which is why foureyes furniture is the best in terms of design and woodworking tips, animation, narration, entertainment, etc
Beautiful work. Great technique to hammer the corners of the dovetail a bit and let the glue moisture push it back out - at least my assumption. Beauty in simplicity.
I enjoy your videos. Nice work and display of skills. I think your video production is getting better. It was never poor. Your camera person does a nice job of selecting the images to explain what you are accomplishing without the use of words. Very well done. Thanks for posting.
Saved this video for this saturday morning with my favourite coffee and even if I've been looking forward to it I was - as always - an immense pleasure. Such skills in all aspects. Respect!
Claus I do the exact same thing:) an Ishitani videos is like eating a peice of chocolate. You know its gonna be good before you bite it and it's better than you remembered from last time.
I'd watch Ishitani make anything. "ISHITANI - Making a Bowl of Oatmeal".......Ishitani gathers wood in the forest with Shiro, fires up his traditional wood burning stove, grabs a hand carved bowl off the pristine counter. Chie gets tight shots of the oatmeal bubbling then cascading into the bowl, the steam is rising, then she sets it all to the perfect musical score. We all choke back tears and completely forget oatmeal is not really that great. We get inspired, we're gonna recreate the magic! So we make our own bowl of oatmeal the next morning. But.......the water is heated in the microwave.....Ding!......and it's instant oatmeal, poured out of a little brown bag. Damn.
dovetails with a table saw? WOW! i have never tried dovetails before in my life because they are so labor intensive. but a table saw? wow. amazing. TRUELY BEAUTIFUL! :D
Hi. One more time, you are excellent. Thanks a lot for that smooth moment. The plant you showed is called Courgette here. You can mix the inside with garlic and meat, or cheese, put it in back and cook at 180ºC half an hour. 😉
Maestro, you must tell us how many years it truly took to build this work of such quiet beauty, lest we foolishly assume we could build something like it in less than fifteen minutes 😊
Always amazing to see the master at work. Simple elegance and craftsmanship. When you started the music I panicked and said...oh no not the ending yet...Thanks!
Was just rewatching some of ur other videos yesterday and then today happens and we all get treated with new content. Always a pleasure watching ur work/art.
I think you are the best woodworker I’ve seen on RUclips. You have some unique ways of doing things but your attention to detail and the tricks you have of making a joint perfect, like that mitered dovetail with the additional saw cut.

Die schönsten Möbel auf youtube, fantastisch gefilmt - ein Hochgenuss! Liebe Grüsse aus Deutschland.
M M I agree!!! What do you mean when you say "clocks his screws"?
the best !!
I totally agree. Well said.

And out of hard oak....
Japan has the pinnacle of wood craftsmanship.

Look how clean and neat the workshop is - says everything.
It is hoovered, even his boots have been placed outside with precision. I wish I was so tidy.
One of the few channels on RUclips where I hit the like button inside of the first 30 seconds. Just out of gratitude for the gift of new content.
With proper care and upkeep this desk will out survive his grandchildren.
A lovely build Sir!!!
The world is a better place with amazing artisans like this. So envious of the skill and the workshop and the fruits of the labor.
Always tear up just a little when the beautiful music plays, knowing that our time together is almost over again for another month.
I cannot thank you enogh for making this videos. There's something incredibily relaxing about them. Please, keep the beautiful work.
I am still stuck on the dovetail joints with the mitered front/rear faces. That was amazing. Thank you.
May very well be the most underrated woodworker on RUclips! Amazing craftsmanship!
To wake up and see Ishitani posted a new video is a priceless way to make your day. Thanks nice family!
I love watching you work. I have saved some money and bought myself some tools to start learning woodworking. Thank you for all the inspiration.
A rare master at work. Never tire of seeing your work. Kudos to your wife too for the wonderful videography.
Always a pleasure watching your work. Shiro and the pumpkin at the end... awesome. Chie, your sensibility make a perfect carpentry work an spectacle
Yet another master class in precision joinery....fantastic 👍🇬🇧
No talking needed. An absolute perfect Video and table. You two are gifted!! And there is Shiro.... 😎
I cant imagine being this much of a master at anything! Cheers from El Paso Texas!
Cheers from Ft. Worth, TX!
I don't think I've ever wanted a piece more than this one. Its gorgeous and would make working so much nicer.
I am impressed with all this precision and calmness to come out this wonderful work
This man is a masterful craftsman. I love to see the beauty of his creations
Yes i think also
All my stress has melted away watching this.
It has a relaxing therapeutic effect.

Even the notches on the screw heads are perfectly aligned. Exquisite. Bravissimo!
dude this is the most beautiful table in all history! boy oh boy!

Hands down the cleanest desk build I have seen.
Best wake up (5:50 here in EU) chill. Thank You
I marvel every time at the level of craftsmanship displayed.
Its always therapeutic to watch your videos.. A rare artist you are.
those joints are just a thing of perfection ,
as usual.
Even the masters were amateurs once
@@benjaminisbester3582 But not all amateurs become masters.

This is the prettiest desk I ever have seen
Simplicity is often the most difficult art form to master
You are much further ahead than I am, and I can't wait to see what's next
I am impressed, if I didn't see the video,i would say : "it's made by the machine" ...
allways a big pleasure to see you at work, that accuracy .... Nice work !!!
Cheers from România
Made by machine wouldn't be half as good.
Such skill and perfection... and some sad people have to give a thumbs down. Probably deep down they are jealous of his skill with wood.
These flawless joints. Always. What a masterpiece!
That sliding saw is to dream for. The home and workshop seem serene. I.... for some reason... I like you never answer... the mystique is palatable. The editing is worthy of an award. The work is worth more than I can afford. I set my seasons waiting for your work.
Stress Buster's for me , but your work and skill of execututing works with precision measurement and calmness also brings me here
oh man, it makes me happy to see, that there are people who treated making furniture like this way
You‘re the one and only real carpenter here on RUclips ... your work Is outstanding ... love every Minute i can watch you ...
Always at the end of your videos I feel like improving as a carpenter.
It's really happy to be able to visit RUclips again and watch your new video. What a nice day!
First time watching you and I’m in awe. So precise, so meticulous. I did not fast forward for even one second. True work of art.
Shear brilliance no talking straight down to work an a fantastic piece of furniture at the end attention to detail a master at his profession
Beautiful! You gave the oak a second life.
What a great start to the day, it’s my daughters birthday and I get to watch one of your films as well fantastic enjoy to watch as usual you are a true craftsman
The videos are so wonderfully produced. Thank you so much for sharing.
I started wood working about a year ago. I love the Japanese style of not using fasteners. I wish I had a mentor like him!
absolute perfect. your videos are the only one that I watch them twice or even more. your work is beyond art it is life.
wish there was narration, like what wood he's using, design, etc etc...which is why foureyes furniture is the best in terms of design and woodworking tips, animation, narration, entertainment, etc
Working with such precision is amazing!
The set is beautiful. The sensibility of the film , even more.
Beautiful work. Great technique to hammer the corners of the dovetail a bit and let the glue moisture push it back out - at least my assumption. Beauty in simplicity.
Un gran trabajo, de mucha precisión. Un lindo acabado.
Ese vegetal le decimos calabacín.
Gracias por mostrar tu forma de hacer las cosas.
The three of you are just excellent. I always look forward to your videos.

The quality inspector seemed pleased with hoomans work.
Amazing to watch. The screw even face same direction. So satisfying.
What a fabulus joinery, it’s always a very big pleasure to follow you
Thank you master for another amazing video. I almost stop woodworking until I came across your videos and your work inspired me a lot. Thank you!!!
Nicely done thanks for showing us. I always look forward to seeing your work.
dovetails with a table saw? WOW! i have never tried dovetails before in my life because they are so labor intensive. but a table saw? wow. amazing. TRUELY BEAUTIFUL! :D
Very fine piece. Values of simplicity, precision, harmony. Always an inspiration. Health to your hands.
Thank you for the lovely video. I enjoyed the shots which were outside the workshop too.
Dovetails AND miter! Excellent job!
You are my hero. I enjoy every minute of your videos. I aspire to be as skilled as you.
Have to wait a long time for a new Ishitani video, but it's always worth it.Congratulation and Thank You!
One of the nicest pieces yet. :) Wonderful.
Great, now I want to move to Japan and become a carpenter.
Hi. One more time, you are excellent. Thanks a lot for that smooth moment.

The absolute precision in your work is phenomenal
I have no words to describe this masterpiece or the the skill it takes to create it.
Love the simple design & amazing joinery! Great job!
Always amazing to see the master at work. Simple elegance and craftsmanship. When you started the music I panicked and said...oh no not the ending yet...Thanks!
So elegant and wonderful. Beautiful piece.
A Master of his craft. Beautifully made and edited.
Was just rewatching some of ur other videos yesterday and then today happens and we all get treated with new content. Always a pleasure watching ur work/art.
Wow - by far my favorite piece. Thank you for the video.
Now that is what I call precision furniture making
いつも楽しく拝見しています。デザインがとっても大好きです。
attention to detail is incredible! I could only dream of being good enough to make something remotely close to this level
always a pleasure watching you work. Thank You.
I can't believe one of the masters' still exists. I thought this was a thing of the past. It does my heart well.
Stunning workmanship. Perfect in every way.
I think you are the best woodworker I’ve seen on RUclips. You have some unique ways of doing things but your attention to detail and the tricks you have of making a joint perfect, like that mitered dovetail with the additional saw cut.
love watching a master craftmans at work ... great work
What a fantastic build!
