no matter what you make i'm always amazed at how acurate you are i've tried to build a stud wall the other day and it took me hours to cut everyting correctly
As always. Sir. You are amazing to watch. Wish we a japanese hardware store here. Need to buy some of the tools. You are using. As a retired carpenter. No one here can do what your doing. Again, thank you for your u tube channel.
Don't know if he allows links but search for Kurashige Tools. They don't have all his tools, but they have quite a variety, an on-line shop, and I have purchased from them. There are others that are more difficult to purchase from if you don't read Japanese. (I don't.)
Was in Japan last October and visited a number of small stores to start a Japanese tool collection. Pricing was great and lots of interesting things that don't make it into our country.
Very beautiful carpentry ! I am a finish carpenter and I am amazed at your knowledge and skill level! Thank you for the great videos! I hope more stair videos are coming !
I would like to comment on the son of the craftsman. Your filming and editing skills are outstanding. I have watched many of these videos as my time allows, and each and every one is terrific. The language difference is never as issue, your English is far better than most born here! And could you tell your dad that he exemplifies the best of craftsmanship in combining old school tools with modern time and labor saving techniques. But his tool usage is phenomenal, as well as his ability to define time tested tricks to make the material (wood) which is always moving, behave and last for extremely long periods. Definitely two thumbs up for the series!
Just love watching this amazing carpenter working with machines that I have not seen but the overall presentation and precision he put into everything he does no wonder he builds so many house. 👍👍😀😀
@@pihermoso11 interesting. Here on the west coast of Canada we have some of the largest cedar trees in the world but I feel they should be (and mostly are) protected.
The background context describing the design and function was very helpful and appreciated. I may have missed 'finishing' information in Mr Shoyan's previous videos - is there (ever) any oil/varnish applied to exposed wood? Thank you!
Another fantastic job Shoyan! I have a suggestion for a future video: please do one on how you setup and use your planes. I really like using the Japanese style one I have but don't feel I use it as well as I could (because I'm used to Western style planes). It'd be really helpful to learn from a master 🫣
My Ryobi handheld electric planer is only about 5cm across, and it struggles way more than that 30cm Ryobi did! I'm jealous of the quality and power of your tools! It is very hard and very expensive to buy good tools in the USA.
I would love to know any tips on how to measure and cut wood so precisely. Everytime I see you fitting constructed pieces in the spots they are intended for with barely any wiggle room... I'm just left in awe.
Would be interested in knowing the overall cost of building homes like this for comparison to the types of building styles elsewhere. The level of quality seems way above what I'm accustomed to seeing and I imagine it would last quite a bit longer due to the attention to details shown here.
It is a pleasure watching a true craftsman at work in a profession he loves, thank you for the update, enjoyed the video immensely.
Definitely a wood junkie. Some sort of fanatic.
You're craftsmanship is top notch !!! But I also enjoy seeing all the different tools you have, like that giant ryobi planer !!!
This guy is beyond craftsman, A true master I think.
I appreciate the attention to detail you put into your craft it’s truly inspiring and I enjoy watching your skills at work
I thought so as well. But then caught him using staples.

Shoyan is a demonstration as to why Japanese carpentry is the worlds best. Shoyan’s carpentry skills are first class. Thank you for sharing.
I love his skill and precision. These are such peaceful videos.
There is beauty in the wood and I always appreciate seeing this craftsman working with it,
Impeccable workmanship as always

Your videos are very relaxing. Thank you from Long Beach, California

I'm pretty sure the English narration (and probably the translation) is hired out. It was mentioned in an early community post, I believe.

I enjoy watching you work, sir. Your craftsmanship and skill are amazing.
I really enjoyed seeing the work and a little of the lifestyle
Another masterful job. Thank you for the video of your great work.
先生、ありがとうございます ⛩️🎏🙏🏽
Finally a new episode 😊
Always such lovely videos!
Always nice to see a real craftsman! I envy you your skills.
I'm loving this ,info on the different parts of a Japanese house are very informative.
I join your other commenters in saluting your craftsmanship - always a pleasure to watch your videos. Thank you for sharing.
Excellent work. It's funny when he said "cedar is the least expensive wood" because here in western Canada, cedar is very expensive.
Yes, and theirs is gorgeous, and in Hawaii we get the knotty fencing version. Haha.
Because cedar is grown in tree farms in Japan, and while it's growing they trim out the branches which results in an almost vertical straight tree

Your precision is admirable. Always looking forward to the next video.

Outstanding workmyship 💖💖
Great video. What is the other measurement on the rulers, looks like cm and ??
what is the brand of telescopic measuring stick you are using? looks very helpful, but I can't find them for sale in the west.
I’m keen to know too
Probably SHINWA
@@davidhouse5920 I think you’re right. Just checked out their catalog and there is something similar there. Cheers

Does someone knows how the grove saw is called?
What brand is the square he uses to cross cut with his circ saw? Has a handle on it.

The narrator’s voice sounds very familiar; Paulo?
All that space under the floor could be used as storage.
You have several squares that you use for layout - are they Shinwa? If they are Shinwa do you prefer the thick or flat corner? Great video
Cedar is like gold here in Canada, based on great marketing only.
what area in Japan does he work in?
福井県ですね
Have you thought about doing affiliate links to the products you use? I often search for stuff I have seen you using.
Do you have a patreon account?
英訳バージョン 初めて見た^ ^
👍👍👍
How does one avoid stepping on the shikii when it is at the top of a step, and so wide?!
Please can you put a link where you bought the ryoba saw?
Who was watching before the English subtitles
👍
