I'm still trying to work out what format is best for introducing these crafts! Let me know in the comments if you'd like to see longer videos showcasing different techniques!
"Sashimono" is a traditional Japanese woodworking technique used to join wooden pieces together without nails or screws. It involves creating precise cuts and joints in the wood to fit pieces together securely, often using interlocking joints. Sashimono is commonly used in making furniture, cabinets, and other wooden items, and it requires a high level of skill and precision to achieve seamless and sturdy connections.

I can only come up with one word to describe my feelings after seeing such perfection, while my jaw is still hanging down awestruck: Wow!
Amazing craftsmanship
There is so much efficiency in his workflow. As a Western cabinetmaker, my jaw dropped at how quickly he trimmed the box joint using his fence on the workbench. Makes me think I should change my ways and start working on the floor. Very, very impressed.
As an admirer of crafts but not an expert, I appreciate your insight!
Masterpiece! Thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have never seen anything quite so beautiful before! ❤ Thank you so much for filming this and showing this video.
Thanks for putting this out there. I started my interest in Japanese woodworking about 45 years ago. Other than some craftsmen that came to New Hampshire (it is amazing how many people were influenced by that event), and a few books, there was very little information available about using Japanese tools. Also most of the people where trying to use them for western projects. Even at this point there isn't a ton of information on Japanese products one can make, other than a few soji books. This is too bad because the tools were evolved to make specific things in specific woods.
It's encouraging to see crafts and craftsmanship still alive today. Hopefully there will be others willing to learn and carry on. So these skills will not be lost. Thank you for sharing your art.
Thanks! Craftsmanship is alive and well here, and I can't wait to show you some of the mindblowing things I've seen!
Truly beautiful work. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you! Cheers!

There is a lot of not terribly accurate stuff here. Japanese carpenters do use nails. Joiners, all around the world also make joints either without nails, or using joinery without glue.
Japanese planes are in many respects easier to use than other planes. I have been making and using them, and pretty much all other planes since around 1980. I did a refresher course in the early 2000s with a Japanese master. Basically everyone managed to make a plane entirely with their own work, on morning one of the seminar. and these planes all worked like the average Japanese plane does with the capability of taking sub 1 thou shavings. A micron is .000039" That is about 10 times finer than high end plane performance. In the kind of work he is shown doing when the comment is made, a 1 thou shaving (.001) would be practical, and one can tell the shavings he is taking are pretty unremarkable. You have to understand that if .000039" was possible, nothing much would happen. Most of the work in planing is shaping or correcting stock. One might need to take a 1/16" or a lot more off the piece. That would take 1600 plane strokes to remove that modest amount of stock at one micron a pass.
One way in which Japanese planes are easier to use is that the blade is tapered. So when you drop it in the plane, and even tap it in place with a hammer, it basically sets to the intended depth... It takes a little feel, but there is a definite limit to how far it can go in. Traditional western planes have the opposite taper, for good reasons, but it does mean there is more guesswork to setting the blade depth. Of course, once one has the feel, it is all just a day at the office regardless of what type of plane is used. Where it shows up is in cycling the blade in sharpening. I can get the blade out, and back in in 10 seconds. 20 seconds if a particular depth of cut has to be achieved. Of course sharpening is a whole other task, but I just mention it because it can be such a process to cycle a blade in a western plane that I think it leads to people putting off sharpening longer than one should.
Japanese planes are just 4 pieces, normally, or as little as 2. The blade is a masterpiece of the blacksmith's art, and while the block making is also a skilled craft, a huge emphasis is on the excellence of the blades. This compares to western planes, particularly modern metal planes where until a few decades ago, the blades were often an afterthought, or tossed out in favour of home made, of custom blades, they were so bad.
The way Japanese planes have the sole scraped means they are always precisely flat, or can be made precisely flat, with minimal effort. Of course the main issue is how they are held, they set like an anchor, but that is a whole book length subject.
Amazing... But did I see an electric drill? 🤔🧐
