      I get it and appreciate it though...
      I'm preparing to build on the big island of Hawaii, in an area described as a "cloud forest." It's wet. Like, really wet. I'll be building in this fashion out of necessity, as metal will rot far faster than the eucalyptus that I have access to.

    Thank you very much for the fact that artisans are dead and can see this kind of traditional work through foreigners.
    It is now continuing through traditional schools in Korea.
    It's very rare for the public to see it.
    You are really great...Thank you...and thank you

    Being a carpenter for 38 yrs, and having an eye for detail, you my good friend, are the best I've seen at hand sawing!!! This is an art all it's own. Folks dont understand the expertise behind every tool that is picked up in your hands. There are naturals in almost any worthy endeavor. Music is a big one. You sir, are a natural with wood. It brings great satisfaction to my soul to watch you quietly persist at excellence! Thank you so much for sharing your journey. To your wife, thank you for taking care of him and building him, as he surely builds for you. Very greatful, david

    This is also a technique used by the Korean shipmakers, So Korean ironclad ships such as the 'Turtle ship' could ram into much larger Japanese vessels and actually do more damage to them. Also if I recall correctly they use a certain type of wood that would expand when in contact with water to tighten when placed in sea.

    I noticed that Mr.Chikadee is using most of Korean traditional tools. By doing that, I trust Mr.Chikadee shows his respect to the craftsmanship of Korean carpenters who made nail free Daecheongmaru several hundreds years ago. I admire Mr.Chikadee's depth of knowledge and passion about Korean traditional joinery.

    I was a UBC journeyman carpenter, and unfortunately I had to get rid of all my old handtools. I plan or rather dream to buy again the old handtools, such as saws, planes, chisels, etc, for when I retire, to build handmade furniture. There is such tranquility and satisfaction in taking your time as you shape the wood by hand yourself, that even imagining it is impossible to comprehend. You just have to have it in your heart, and you have to do it to understand this fully. Someone said that this is nothing less than "sawdust therapy" I would love to know where you got your chisels and slick from. And that mortise framing auger hand drill is awesome. Love your lumber saw 😍

    The use of angled holes formed by two separate pieces with the locking board held in place by angled rectangular pegs is so unbelievably elegant that I had to rewind the video twice. I constantly find myself marvelling at the keen thinking that ancient builders used to solve the architectural need to build something with a minimum of metal fasteners.
    I also have to give you a great deal of thanks; you present this in a way that makes it much easier to understand to enormous ingenuity involved, and in a fashion that makes it accessible to just about anyone. I truly enjoyed watching this.
    Thank You.

    Attractive, satisfying video. One thing I was taught by craftsmen born before 1900. Applies to both saw an file. Let it work in the sharp direction, lift it a bit and pull it back. This keeps the teeth sharp longer. With the file and metal, you don't fill the grooves. Between sharpenings you get more work done.
