    I have been struggling with this for months and out of the 20 or 30 videos I have watched I feel like this was the best. You really explained what you were doing and talked about positioning of the arms and body and it just actually made sense. So many other people making videos about this just say what they are thinking as they do it but don't explain why or any specifics. I feel like this video is really going to help. Thanks

    Another great video. I love Japanese saws. I only have a couple Western saws, but I rarely use them. What you said about the sound of the cut is really important. That's why I never listen to music while I'm working because listening to the wood makes a lot of difference. I have both of your dovetail cutting jigs. Now that I'm older and my hands are a little more shaky, they are a fantastic help.

    This was a huge help to me. It's funny how something that seems as basic as "how to saw" turned out to have so many tips and tricks. The reflection tip alone was well worth the watch. I went home after watching this and cut a bunch of perfect lines with my Japanese saw. I didn't even know the difference between the rip side and the cross-cut side previously! Many thanks for posting this, and I'm a subscriber now.

  • @Yuriy6212
    @Yuriy6212 Год назад

    First of all, I want to thank you for the carefully prepared instructional video. I have periodically at different times in my life had to make different things for the house, such as panelling for a balcony, or a wooden shelving unit, and I use mostly non-mechanized tools, amateur tools, but I have never used nokogiri and Japanese tool methods. I have a good quality European quality cross cutter that came with a replaceable blade, and it's probably over 25 years old and retains its cutting sharpness and accuracy, although I haven't used it every five years either. I'm not sure if I buy a tool now I will be able to use it in another twenty years, but let my grandson do it.
    Sorry for the long preface to the question. It's just that I recently bought a noname angle gauge which, to my surprise, measured 91.3° instead of 90°, which probably proves once again that our earth is not flat, but still spherical. I bought noname blades made of steel that rusted pittingly after six months in a moderate continental climate in room storage, and I understand that modern things are not meant to last forever.because the new saw is next to the one I bought when I was a quarter of a century younger, and next to the one my grandfather gave me. I really hope that Japanese saws, as well as the tradition of carpentry techniques, have retained their attitude towards the tool.
    My habit is to deal with blades not less than 0.8 mm thick, and I am somewhat confused by how flexible and thin Japanese saws can be, although it provides high accuracy of cut, but the question of how long they will serve and what kind of reserve should be made if you set the volume of projects, for example on the total cutting length, and by durability for years of storage.
    What can I learn about durability and MTBF about these tools, where can I find their characteristics in this regard? Thank you.
