Beatiful work. Thank you so much, master craftsman, for sharing your fantastic workmanship. I do so enjoy seeing the differing ways (and some similarities) of problem solving and building things of beauty as well as durability. Thanks again for sharing your talent and skills
This staircase really looks beautyful! And it's very relaxing to watch a master carpenter working, 'cause every workstep looks as simple as breathing...
All of the wood in this structure is beautiful... We can't even get wood this nice in the states. Thanks for showing your work. I am a master carpenter as well, and I learned a few things. You are awesome.
If my shop teacher saw any of us use a circular saw like that with a hand out in front, instead of both hands on the tool, I’m sure he’d have had a itchy canary. Loved this video.
thank you for sharing your work, your skill and craftmanship in this video. It is a real pleasure to whatch. Sincerely yours, a young carpenter from Amsterdam, the Netherlands
With all do respect, this staircase is what we call a winder. Because of how it it winds it's way up or down. It is not a spiral staircase in the traditional sense. But either way, it is some fine workmanship. And it IS beautiful.
Can you please start a patreon or something. I’d be more than happy to subscribe and pay monthly to hopefully get more of your videos in english. I’ve learned so much technique from your videos in Japanese. I would love to have a way to say thanks (the best i can do now is sitting through the ads on your content)
Beautiful work, so much precision & understanding of what is needed & what, in fact, works best. Can never tire of watching you work so let's get on with the next video. Cheers, Don from South Aust.
Thanks for sharing.....I've watched 3 of your videos back to back, and as a master machinist for 40 years, let me say. You, Sir, are a whole lot better than very good at this......subscribed. = )
Aside from his skills, how does he not get confused by the complexity of the cuts and order of the jobs. He makes it so easy that you think everybody can do this. I built winder stairs myself and it is a very hard work to get it right.
Am I the only American admiring their framing lumber? Not only is it beautiful, it all looks perfectly straight. I live in a country of forests, and our construction lumber looks like shit.
Beautiful Craftsmanship . So good to see old school skills ,May i ask , I have the old Groove Cutter being used and would love to no where i could find groove cutter blades and the Fence being used , i have all but that and run a 35mm cutter on mine ,but would like to buy a few more, is there somewhere i could purchase from in japan and could you show the concave blade in step treads being used . Love the very interesting videos.
I've noticed that the winders stairs are attached to the wood frame. Have you ever considered doing that to the straight stairs meaning that you could HIDE the stringers to the wall framing. NO STRINGERS looks like the stairs are floating as oppose to seeing a normal stair stringer. I enjoyed all your video and wished I could do all your techniques but I have a limited workshop and tools. I hope you try my idea and make a video of it. Thanks from Vancouver, Canada........Ping
Thank you for posting these informative and instructional video. I would like to ask what is the thickness of the lumber you used for the steps. Korera no yūekide kyōiku-tekina bideo o tōkō shite itadaki arigatōgozaimasu. Suteppu ni shiyō shita mokuzai no atsu-sa o oshietekudasai.
Awesome carpentry from a Master Carpenter. I learned so many little things during this video I can hardly count them all. If I had produced this I would've have used Pro Tips and pointed out each one of these. For instance, just the way you expertly sharpened your penicl on a table with one of your chisels. And the way you cut out your treads atop that solid insulation board was very clever. What you didn't fully explain was how you laid out the winder staircase. I've read a ton of architechtural and housebuilding books and never one of them addresseh spiral staircases. I'm curious, did you father teach you such genius-level building skills? And where does one acquire such amazing tools as you demontrated here??
This is technically not a spiral stair, it's a winder. I worked a a stair company, and finding a good winder builder was not an easy task. You might think circular stairs would be more difficult, but not from my experience.
His instructions were to make a full scale, 2D plan view drawing of what you are trying to build. I’m not sure what other instructions he can give. It doesn’t do much good for him to get too far into the weeds about the specific numbers on this project, because every project has it’s own unique parameters. I’ve always found making detailed drawings and sketches of what it is you are trying to build, are always very helpful. It can really help the task at hand to ‘soak in’ when you dissect the numbers and run them forwards and backwards several times, to insure you know things are going to work once the saw hits the material.
I built an open-tread radial stair a few years back with tapered treads, visible from all angles, from bottom to top, made up of laminated 2x4 Douglas Fir. As each tread was more or less the exact same taper I glued up the 2x4 into wide enough panels that I could get two treads out of each = you COULD clamp the wood and there were no screw holes. The leading edge of each tread was the outside parallel faces of the panel and the angled back was the cut face.. it turned out very nicely. Also 'nags'?! - you mean 'knots'.. ;o)
Watching this man work I can't help thinking that many, many years ago carpenters in this country would be making stairs much the same way , maybe using different tools but built on site like this. Unfortunately in America, being in the "trades" has become synonymous with not being able to go to college. Being a skilled craftsmen is looked at as a dirty job, if you had tried harder in school you wouldn't have to work for a living. In fact here in this country most schools don't even have shop classes anymore, school administrators have done away with them.

That precision carpentry art is almost extinct, Thank you Master for sharing a priceless piece of art.
There’s a feeling of calm serenity within me watching his vidz,Domo Arigato.
Thank you for the English translation. A true craftsman in any language! Enjoy all the videos I have watched. ❤️👍
I love that Shoyan sharpens his pencil with a chisel. True carpenter.
Beatiful work. Thank you so much, master craftsman, for sharing your fantastic workmanship. I do so enjoy seeing the differing ways (and some similarities) of problem solving and building things of beauty as well as durability. Thanks again for sharing your talent and skills
Beautiful, precision construction! Quality work that is rare in today’s fast paced, slap-it-together construction.
This staircase really looks beautyful! And it's very relaxing to watch a master carpenter working, 'cause every workstep looks as simple as breathing...
Enjoy these videos immensely!
I just happened on your channel today and after this video I just had to like and subscribe . You Sir are a fantastic craftsman .
Wow! Incredible craftsmanship.
Amazing work
All of the wood in this structure is beautiful... We can't even get wood this nice in the states. Thanks for showing your work. I am a master carpenter as well, and I learned a few things. You are awesome.
I love watching this guy work.
By far, my favorite carpenter!
I enjoyed every minute of your video🤗Fantastic skills and thanks you for taking the time to film and edit it👍
If my shop teacher saw any of us use a circular saw like that with a hand out in front, instead of both hands on the tool, I’m sure he’d have had a itchy canary. Loved this video.
I really appreciate your skill and effort in sharing. Thank you
Very impressive, precision is remarkable.
Fantastic video! Thank you taking the time and care to film these. Very much enjoyed this.
Beautiful. Man I have to figure out how to build one of these for a project im doing!
thank you for sharing your work, your skill and craftmanship in this video. It is a real pleasure to whatch. Sincerely yours, a young carpenter from Amsterdam, the Netherlands
Definitely a MASTER . I’m envious.
I am totally blown away!!
Amazing craftsmanship a real master. 👏
You are a true artist.
Beautiful job ! Please keep posting
Master of his trade!
Very nice craftsmanship.
Beautiful simply beautiful well done you sir. Kind regards Danny uk
Interesting, thx

It's due respect, not do respect - sorry if that's too picky, but I couldn't help it!
But winders are not constructed like that at all.

Thank you so much!

Fantastic work!
excellent
beautiful work
I love that you take pride in your work. Beautiful job.
My man is a beast
Beautiful job Japanese craftsmanship you can tell everything fits perfectly thank you
I like the technique of drilling out the knots, instead of trying to chisel them out.
Very impressive!
A great video. A truecraftsman!
Wish we had beautiful framing lumber like he has
Aside from his skills, how does he not get confused by the complexity of the cuts and order of the jobs. He makes it so easy that you think everybody can do this. I built winder stairs myself and it is a very hard work to get it right.
My guess would be his experience and repetition of the job itself. He's built the equivalent of 40 houses.
beautiful, thank you
Beautiful Work
Very nice
Am I the only American admiring their framing lumber? Not only is it beautiful, it all looks perfectly straight. I live in a country of forests, and our construction lumber looks like shit.
Ohayo! perfect. Really enjoyed it
What an honorable and honest, talented and hardworking guy he seems to be
MASTERFUL!
BEAUTIFUL
He did all that in ONE day?!? 😳🤯
Domo arigato gozaimasu (bowing emoji here if I could find it)
I like it! Gratulálok!
Excelente
Artist!
Beautifulwork you are very talentedsincerely deb in Vermont
I need a teacher like him
I was hoping for this episode in english. Thanks.
Arigato!
Please make video of the tools you work worth the most
Beautiful job!
すごい！
Nice good job
This is incredible. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
très beau travail !
Exelente
Su nivel de perfección es fabuloso...y pienso que lo que cobra por su trabajo debe ser impagable para un humano común y corriente....
beautiful work, I would have rounded the edges of the steps though, this way its easier to slip and fall down them
Beautiful Craftsmanship . So good to see old school skills ,May i ask , I have the old Groove Cutter being used and would love to no where i could find groove cutter blades and the Fence being used , i have all but that and run a 35mm cutter on mine ,but would like to buy a few more, is there somewhere i could purchase from in japan and could you show the concave blade in step treads being used .

8:19 When your chisels are razor sharp and you sharpen your pencil with it
This man sharpened a pencil with a chisel.. EPIC
as a joiner, I do that everyday. A chisel is at hand, a sharpener is not. Sanding paper is fine, too.
I've noticed that the winders stairs are attached to the wood frame. Have you ever considered doing that to the straight stairs meaning that you could HIDE the stringers to the wall framing. NO STRINGERS looks like the stairs are floating as oppose to seeing a normal stair stringer.

Hello teacher
Amazing i love this.
Très beau travail
Nice work. Unfortunately, those kinds of winders aren't allowed in the US anymore.
This is better than trying to build your body trying to be a bodybuilder and become a looser.

Please don't stop making episodes. Do you do patreon?
May I ask, what is that large square you use whilst using your circular saw?

What kind of saw is that that it removes material (wood) like a router IN ONE PASS?

Thanks, I learned a lot from this video. What’s the name of the tool used at 6:32 to carve out grooves?
Have you thought about using knee pads to help your knees
Why didn't you use biscuits or dowels in joining the different Pisces of the steps?

that wood is beautiful, they don't make USA homes like that. I wonder if what he is doing would be to code for the US.
May I ask what brand the pink drill is? 😊
Хорошо, добротно. Вместо титевы можно было косоуры поставить
I still don't understand how the staircase in general can hold heavy usage, when the steps are hanging on such a tiny spots in the vertical posts.
