Yes. I think you can find high quality lumber in the US but you gotta be in the know. Also he has amazing tools and amazing skills which helps make it look even better. If you gave me that same lumber it would probably end up looking like I bought it at Home Depot fire sale. ;)
I am a carpenter in the states, but after watching your videos I don’t want to call myself a carpenter anymore. I have a lot more to learn. Thank you for inspiring me to reach a greater level of skill.
Hi! I'm from Poland. My grandfather was a carpenter. When I look at your work, I remember my youth time. . . Thanks for the video, your work and the reminder of old carpentry techniques... and my Grandpa... 🥲😍
The amount of Experience in his work become visible in how he handles big tools. I’m a furniture maker by trade, and seeing this guy swinging around that huge circle saw is a pleasure
Showing us the old ways incorporated with new ones and still delivering a beautiful, practical efficient ,piece of work and yes haha old house almost needs old stuff to suit it sometimes but maybe house needs a new look to suit new stuff 🤔
For some reason this has been my favourite, that it is something for your own home and it's been put off doing, not just for a few weeks but years is the most relatable thing for any craft. Already being 40 and seeing the craft and profession of your trade. You are a true master and it's very easy to see and also follow but also notice the work and skill going into it. Woodworking, Painting, Plumbing, Art... working up the energy and motivation to do these things for yourself is always a world apart from doing them as a daily profession. :)
I love how politely you asked us to subscribe. Done! I appreciate the insight into a different process that I gain from watching your videos. Thank you!
I'm and English language viewer, from OR in US. I lived in Niigata ken for a couple years in the 90's. I worked for a long time as a carpenter in the US. I love to watch your work. And... I subscribed long ago.
We should Subscribe because Shoyan is a true Master and we should show our appreciation and respect for his efforts in sharing his lifetime of knowledge. Thank you Master Shoyan -Castor
p.s.s Master San, I've been watching the content for about 2 years now and appreciate all of it multiple occasions 😁. Troy 😎 P.s I wish Your son good fortune in his future as well. Troy 😎
Emperor Shoyan! Today you asked for subscribers. Today I subscribed. I’m addicted to your content: your craftsmanship, professionalism and patience are rarely found qualities in the 21st century. I discovered your RUclips channel around last December while doing research on a variety of topics related to carpentry, hand tools and power tools. My objective is to build a range of simple, furniture with clean lines for home. The furniture must maximize space - nesting desks, tables and benches and discretely hide furniture when not in use during the day. Discovering your RUclips channel is dangerously intoxicating. A beginner like me can easily acquire a false sense of confidence after watching you. You make things look so effortless; and that’s the danger. The most talented people, regardless of profession, make the difficult look easy. Think I’ve watched virtually all of your English channel content. Can’t wait for your next video, Emperor, Shoyan! All the best from beautiful Vancouver, Canada!
@@lohikarhu734 Hello Lohi! Thanks for the comment. So, were you born in Vancouver or, did you live here for a few years? When, where and why did you move to Germany? You got me puzzled with your question. You want me to say [type], sugoi. Okay, sugoi! See ya!
@@jamespyacek2691 I'm very jealous of his jointer/planer and I've never seen a 'super surfacer' here in Canada, nor that saw with the dado stack for cutting rebates.
It is indeed beautiful and built by a master . Please don't retire or stop making videos . Your ability and attitude to perfection is a lesson for any up and coming person wanting to work with wood . I saw a prayer above a wood work shop which read " May people who don't work with wood find something else that's just as good " I am sure you agree ? I have worked with wood all my life and envy your ability . My praise is heart felt .
hi from Dublin Ireland . its fantastic watching a master craftsman , i hope you never lose the hunger to create . blessings from the land of the setting sun .
It ´s a gem !!! beautiful job carpenter san, 👍👏👏💪💪 I hope that the day you retire, your son inherits not only the tools but also your qualities and your ingenuity to create such wonderful things. It's a pleasure to watch your videos every time.
Hello, yes I subscribe to your channel! with great pleasure ! I always enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for your great work and thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise.

Shoyan-son, thank you very much! I am currently in Ibaraki-Ken, Japan visiting relatives for the first time since 1987 when I was a child. I am delighted and inspired by your work and I have purchased several Japanese chisels to bring home to Canada for my own projects. Thank you for honoring us by sharing!
I love this bench video! I subscribed to your channel. I'm very impressed with your skills. I have a son who is currently in Osaka working as an English teacher. I live in Oregon USA. The joinery techniques of Japan, and other countries is very nice to learn, and I will be trying this wedge joinery technique soon. Thank you.

Anyone else in the US surprised by the incredible quality of Japanese construction lumber?
At least in usa the lumber can be called lumber . U should see india
Yes. I think you can find high quality lumber in the US but you gotta be in the know. Also he has amazing tools and amazing skills which helps make it look even better. If you gave me that same lumber it would probably end up looking like I bought it at Home Depot fire sale. ;)
He didn't get that lumber from Home Depot...
@@nathanmarineau3993 no he didn't, it came from Canada or the US West Coast, Japanese have a love affair with Doug fir vertical grain...
I think the Japanese keep all their timber. No exports.
If you retire, please don't stop making these wonderful videos.
Such straight lines there really is so much beauty hidden in simplicity

I'm a low end furniture maker. All I have is a hatchet and cauk.
Was thinking the same thing, he does it with such grace.
I watch your videos in the morning to get motivated to go to work :D
That is some sweet woodwork, I love how there is not a single knot on that wood, perfect bench.

8:50 thank you for this technic. The block is indeed useful
I love the humility of the Japanese people, very kind as always.

I've never seen a tenon machine like this. And the bench couldn't be more beautiful - that goes without saying.
Cherish these moments with your father.wish I could do this with mine.
I subscribed during the first episode of the house build. I wait for your next episode.

Never knew they made such small super surfacers, would love one in my shop
Was that the Ryobi scraper tool?
@@oktuluo No, it's the machine that creates shavings like a hand plane. If you google Super Surfacer you'll find the bigger version of it.
yeah man where I can get one of those, seems only in Japan
Greetings from UK love your videos, I would love to visit Japan everybody seems very polite❤ by the way I just subscribed 👍

Can you say su goi??

You got me puzzled with your question. You want me to say [type], sugoi. Okay, sugoi!
See ya!
What took you so long to subscribe.The man should not have to ask if you are getting value from his work
It's honestly kind of insane how much work this man puts into everything. So much attention goes into every single plank of wood.
that's called being a good carpenter. Building anything the right way takes time, skill and attention.
@@krenwregget7667 Oh absolutely, but it certainly is rare to see it.
Yeap, a true Daiku-san.
And he's got the coolest tools!
