I can't be the only one to laugh at "I am finally free from their complaints" I'm sure many can feel sympathy for this sentiment. Awesome work!
The key learning : before choosing any colour, talk to your wife !
jsjciwnsondc
That was a popular color 40 years ago

It was a big mistake to select a colour with first discussing with his wife !
@@lambertois11 He was 26 his wife was probably 21 or 22 and he didn’t have much money. The tiles were probably all he could afford
If I was super rich, I'd fly Shoyan and his team out to the USA to build me a house. I have so much respect for his craft.

It is very private and personal to bring us into your own home and show us your past work despite any embarrassment you might have. I appreciate how difficult this must seem at times but you have opened a window into your private life for all of us to see. Thank you for this because it gives dimension to someone we only see in the workshop. I look forward to seeing the project development and I'm sure that it will make your family very happy.
It's the age old problem. The carpenter works on everyone else's house before their own. I am sure this is going to be a top notch kitchen renovation.
The cobblers kids are barefoot
I am humbled by this man. " I hurt my back, so I took a couple of months to complete my architect's exams". What a fierce example of what it can mean to be a builder. Proud, expert, humble, exacting and uncompromising.
“I’m finally free of their complaints”. I think you’ve seriously underestimated the ability of family to complain about your choices. 😂😂😂
I'm sure this saying exists elswhere in the world but in Estonia we have a saying, that it is good to observe burning fire, flowing water and a working man. Not many people make things happen and change with their own hands. Thank you for inspiration and teachings.
68 years old and working as hard as a man half his age! if not harder!! you are a credit to our profession Sir, I can't wait for part two! thank you so much for sharing,
greetings and best wishes from a brother carpenter,
Richard Wright
York, England.
There is no better or worse customer than yourself! Excited to see the craftsmanship.
The yellow tile was a nice pop of colour and felt very cheerful. Don't feel too bad about past trends some of them are coming back!
Very nice color indeed!
Remembering the day you built your home on the day you demolish it... I am in tears, sir.
It's funny you said about not knowing what you did yesterday but remembering what you did 40 years ago I think we're all like that my friend I do the same thing all the time.
I absolutely feel you too, it's the same for me! Especially the first years I learned my craftsmenship since 1984 and for sure the childhood of my beloved kids!
Thank you for taking US into your personal private space, your family home and showing us these special skills! 🙏🏻
"I couldn't afford to build it slowly" is an interesting approach to it.
Sir, your 40 year old house still looks better than most new American homes. Kudos to your craftsmanship.
So happy that this youtube channel has afforded you the ability to finally renovate your own home. You always see mechanics driving "beaters" and contractors living in construction sites...but you never see surgeons with an unstitched cut...congratulations shoyan you are a surgeon!
I know you said you cut corners years ago, but sir, I must say, I can only watch in awe of your craftsmanship. Your cut corners outshine the work of many others. Not only have you nothing to be ashamed of, but you should feel justifiably proud of the work you did. It is magnificent and I am truly honored to be able to witness it from half way around the world in Atlanta. Thank you very much.
The same care you put into your work is evident in your videos. Thank you.
Bless me, that's some good work. There's almost no damage at all. You did a good job the first time, despite being poor and in a rush when you built it first. I've never seen a 40-year renovation where there is this little damage, wear, and dirt. I'm very impressed by how good your work was even back then. That kitchen floor support structure looks so sturdy! I'm glad you could re-use the red pine!
You are so modest and humble, I appreciate your skills and expertise even more.
I'm beyond impressed with this process. The stripped rooms are so neat, almost as if you built everything anew and now start the first-time finishing.
Everything really breathes quality.
This feels so heartwarming to watch. Never in my life did I imagine I'd feel so relaxed watching a carpentry video
One of the best videos on this channel for me , a life-long carpenter.
Fascinating to see the 80's techniques used in Japan,
and hear my young voice in the distance,
as I remember renovating my 1st house ,, in 1980 - '86
room by room.
Looking forward to this series !
My absolute favorite carpentry channel
This man takes so much pride in every aspect of his work
It is an absolute pleasure to watch you work. Thank you.
"I am finally free of their complaints" oh I felt that. This is a wondertul video and the narration is fantastic, too. Thanks for sharing!
What did i just stumble upon? This is a masterpiece. I'm watching a true master at work. What a pleasure.
I'm glad RUclips is paying for the renovations!
Welcome back Shoyan sensei, I haven't seen one of your videos for ages! I remember my Father building an extension to his house when I was young. He was an office worker, but had originally trained as a coach builder. I remember being so impressed with the kitchen cabinets that he built!
I renovated my own kitchen several years ago (I'm not a builder either). I stripped everything out and changed the plumbing and electrics myself, and got an engineer to relay the gas. When it was finished I too was my own worst critic. I used to show people all the 'faults', as if I was proud of them!! Thank you for another fantastic video. I'm sure that there will be more of them on this subject. Work carefully and safely please.
No clue how I found this channel. I was having a pretty bad month. This channel cheered me up. Thanks. Keep up the great work.
Man that's a large kitchen! It's still incredible that you were able to build a nice home with the budget that you had back then!
Can't wait for part two!
みんながずっと健康で幸せでいられますように
Whoever does your English voiceovers has a very soothing voice.
Nice beginning
Shoyan, i have a story for you. My father (77 year old retired engineer and carpenter) built his house in Australia in 1974.
The house foundation is brick with 2ft wide concrete pylons positioned every 2 meters. All the Concrete pylons are buried 1.8M and range from 1m to 1.8m above ground. The house foundation completely exceeded the 1ft wide pylon requirement, essentially its over-engineered.
This year my father decided to sell his house. The house is 50 years old and has only moved 2cm at its lowest point. My father said he built the house this way so one day it could either have a 2nd story built on-top or the house could be demolished and a new house built on-top of its existing foundation.
Well you certainly did a complete job of removing ALL POSSIBLE SECTIONS, ready for the upgrade Shoyan. I look forward to the next video. Cheers, Don from South Australia.
Looking forward to this series. Thank you for sharing. 🙏
I love Japanese style homes and watching the demolish of your hard work in the past is like uncovering a time capsule your home I liked your tiles the colors were very nice despite your family comments on the yellow but I thought it looked nice very nice work
This is wild... my family used to have a tilling company and I worked with them growing up. Seeing the bare wood exposed and saw dust i swear I can smell the wood after it's been cut and it brought me right back to being a kid and all the cool stuff I got to do.
I would not imagine I'd be so charmed by a carpenter working on the other side of the world...
That being said, I very much understand the sentiment around rough work and cutting corners when working for yourself - you do it, because you know you can take the responsibility on yourself, and you can always come back and make it better! Yet you never do, as it's usually not required, even in 40 years.
This is a beautifully built house, and the craftsmanship is ten folds better then almost all the houses built here in my country of Australia. I find it funny how low a opinion you hold of it, it speaks highly of your integrity as a craftsmen.
Thankyou for the video it was interesting and a enjoyable watch
That's very humble to see you working on something that (you) yourself completed so many years ago Shoyan.
That was hilarious when you realized you were free from all complaints.
Congratulations on finding the inspiration to finally make this happen and come to fruition. 🙌🏿
i am glad some Japanese craftsman went to this kind of approach to generate more income...These craftsmen could indeed benefit from sharing their skills and stories on platforms like RUclips to reach a wider audience and preserve their heritage. It would not only help in keeping these traditions alive but also educate and inspire people globally...This will help their art gain more publicity and allow them to earn extra income from their content...it will be sad to think that some traditional crafts in Japan might disappear, only to be remembered through documentaries. Many of these crafts are deeply rooted in history and culture...and their loss would be significant.
I'm so happy to learn that Japanese people procrastinate too 😂😂 seriously though what a great video, it's so relaxing
Not a single wasted movement. Only efficiency. Very impressive!
the house is quite clean after 40 years... nice job keeping it in tip top shape!
I failed to see any roughness in your work. But then again i just admire your work no matter what it is.
Doing such an amazing house at 26 years ! How many can proudly say the same ? Not so much!
A lot of respect for your work Sir, even if you said you did cut corners, you did what a few could do
What a legend! Thank you for this beautiful video.
Wow !!! 40 yrs. We've been in our home going on 40 yrs. Building materials and techniques have changed so much. This will be an amazing remodel !!!
It is funny to me because those yellow tiles and kitchen flooring pattern have become stylish designs now. I often see interior designers picking bright colours like that.
very interesting to see live edge timbers used for the kitchen subfloor.
Still a beautiful home, no matter what the anyone think. Having watched you do a number of homes/rooms all I could think was "Oh good nails" since now most everything is screwed. Can not wait to see your ideas for the area. Thank you for showing us this.
in my opinion it is some what amazing to revisit your work and watching how you did back then with less experience and now when you revisit you can see how it was and remember how nostalgic it were.
I am not a builder but I am a programmer which I did some project when I was younger and ofcourse it is easier for me to revisit my project but it is fun to see how i was back in the day vs today which i can do the same stuff with greater solution and approach and to see how far i have come and how much I improved from the old me
In the future maybe a bottle jack under the flooring would help the demolition. It’s a little extra work setting the jack up, but worth the back saving effort! Thank you for sharing!
*Thank you so much, for taking us on you & your families journey on renovating your own private home. Yep when we do this stuff ourselves or bring in tradies to update our own homes, we all find things that should not have been done by builders years ago.. 🙂I did laugh when you said "I am finally free from their complaints", as designs change so much over 40 years. I do however find it fascinating how homes are build in different countries in years gone by, to how they are built today 🙂nz*
Considering you had a limited budget, limited materials, and limited time available I think you did a good job with your home. It did it’s job for 40 years, and lived through all the memories you created there, it must be happy to be renovated finally, now that you’ve gained years of experience and we’re able to contemplate exactly how you would want to do it. I’m inspired to renovate my old home now, thank you for sharing with us!
You are my new favorite channel
At 40 years, this was a fine kitchen. The job was lots of physical work. I'm guessing you are near or in your 60s based on the 40-year-old house. Surely laborious work has its negatives, but being able to put in a long day doing such tasks throughout a long life is also a blessing.
It's a strange mix of sad and wonderful to see such work removed, but I'm glad you're able to give yourself this well deserved renovation; now with 40 more years of experience and no more cut corners.
Incredible to think that at the age of 26 in 1982 you had such great skills. The work is impeccable. And your demolition skills are impressive as well. Takes knowledge to know where to put the crowbar
I love that old kitchen!!
Must’ve brought many a happy memories when you was building it like you I look back to that time looking forward to seeing the new renovation. 👍😀🇬🇧😀
Looks like things came apart pretty cleanly and easily.
Thank you for sharing your story - watching and hearing it feels relaxing. Interesting to see how Japanese home is made - very different to houses in UK and Poland.
thank you so much for doing these in English. i love your work Mr Shoyan
You demolish as eloquently as you build. Happy you and your wife will have a new renovation.
This man is a god of carpentry
Your craftsmanship even just demolishing is outstanding, very excited to see this project through with you
Ah yes, looking at something you did years ago and thinking to yourself, "Oh yeah, I remember doing that."
熊のように強い！ 素晴らしい話、共有してくれてありがとう！Strong as a bear! Great story, thank you for sharing!
Ive never been to or seen your home before but during the whole video i felt as tho it were my home be torn apart some....great job telling the story! The voice overs sound very good now as well!
Me and my wife are unbelievably stoked for this series. LFG
RUclips best part. Thanks mister
Great video most interesting slowly slowly slowly this time and you've got 40 years wisdom
I would call what you are doing as 'deconstruction' not demolishing. You know how it went together, and you are taking it apart in the same sequence. It minimizes waste and allows for some reuse of materials. Good Job.
Thankyou for taking we the audience on this journey. I look forward to the next video.
Nice big kitchen still looking great after 40 years!
Good video to learn how a 80s Japanese house was constructed. Very intresting! Thank you for sharing, from Sweden! :)
I am amazed at how well your work from your early carpenter years withstood the test of time. Well done! Can't wait to see next video in series. Your friend from Mocksville, NC
amazing how we all need to really focus on working on our own houses , world wide , always enjoy seeing different methods of construction
I like colour of these tiles)
Thank you for this video, it feels like some film with filosophy plot
Very interesting to see how japanese houses are built.
Shoyan's rough work is 99% better than every other carpenters best work
He works harder than most 20 and 30 year olds too
Thank you for all the explanations of the construction components, and also your thought processes.
Secondly: I like your house a lot. One can see that you had little money when it was built, but the workmanship is mostly solid for a young man. I look forward to the rebuild by a more experienced Shoyan.
I am so amazed at how clean you work and how precise everything is. You are like a CNC machine!
How wonderful that you may see the fruits of your own marvellous work, Shoyan San!
Good luck in your renovated home, Shoyan San.
i love how precisely built everything is, more so that its built in a modular form. Sadly, newly built western houses are not built with such tolerances and when kitchens and appliances are built, they wont utilise the 100mm or so of additional storage, they will just cover it.
I love to create, but demolition is my favorite part! ^.^ Cant wait for the next video!
what an amazing video. It isn't often you get a chance to go back with your current knowledge and confront the work of your younger self. This will be an interesting series to follow!! Well don Master!!
Wonderful video as always. I truly appreciate the attention to detail, the thorough explanations, and the way you showcase everything. Your videos go beyond mere entertainment; they are highly educational, and that’s truly valuable. Last week, I spent time with my father discussing renovations for our cottage (after nearly 55 years), and I felt a connection to your own home project. Especially when we talked about our timber-framed roof (euro/bohemian style, centuries old, rebuilded mutliple times) and the roof ceilings made from planks-those that had endured generations of wood-eating bugs! Thank you, Shoyan San.
Very excited for you undertaking such an interesting project. I'm looking forward to the results and what you'll do differently after 40 years.
I love the modular kitchen. Installation is so expensive and a pain here.
Really enjoyed that. It's always wonderful to see you work. But somehow even more interesting to see you do work on a project of your own.
Very lovely video I look forward to watching more
I love your yellow tiles man 💛
I'm sure however much your family whined about them they'll miss them:)
I thought the yellow was nice! Looking forward to this series!
Thank you for bringing us on this journey with you. I look forward to the next instalment of this project.
Those floor boards are still beautiful, no? And the shapes are all unique
A carpenter’s house is always the last to get fixed
