que gran técnica que maneja este verdadero maestro en todo el vídeo no usa ni una sola herramienta eléctrica.. toda una inspiración para aquellos aficionados a este arte porque trabajar la madera es todo un arte..
I'm not quite sure but my best guess is Paulownia tomentosa. The wood is used alot in kyoto joinery, real soft, looks like that, and highly respected in Japan. If you are in the Southern US it grows like a weed and sales for about $5/bf.
Very soft wood. The drawer fronts are not dovetailed. The drawer bottoms are solid wood but are glued directly to the drawer sides. Those are not generally considered to be good practices for durable construction. I'm guessing that that particular wood doesn't swell or contract much with changes in humidity, and I'd have to say people who use these pieces must treat them very gently.
+1Howdy1 They get away with gluing the bottom directly to the sides of the drawer because the drawers are small, and paulownia wood is pretty stable. But it is real soft. He was cross cutting it with a knife. You can press your finger nail into it. It looks great tho. As for my age, please tell me, how old am I? You don't have a clue, so shut up about stuff you know nothing about.
+1Howdy1 Would you make a product for daily use out of a wood that is not much denser than balsa? Of course you wouldn't. The person you sold it to would call you a cheat after the thing is torn apart in daily use. The culture you live in is not used to wood objects being so fragile, or made of such a soft material. Someone would toss a big dictionary on it and it would be damaged. This guy happens to live in a place where customers are used to this wood. As for the drawer bottoms, my criticism is that it is not a good practice in general. It is acceptable for that size of drawer, made in that particular wood, but anyone watching this who doesn't understand those particulars might assume it is acceptable to glue solid wood panels, of any type of wood, onto any sized drawer bottom. A solid panel of pine, for instance, on a larger drawer will expand and contract with seasonal humidity changes. The panel will certainly develop at least one split. And it is possible the glue joint could fail in places. I don't own a Shopsmith, never have, but I've seen good work done on one. I've seen good work done with just an ax. I don't have any peg board in my shop. Again, you assume a great deal about me in order to insult me. Try keeping it about the subject.
+deezynar The video is about traditional technique, not general carpentry. If someone commissioned me to build a traditional piece I would be forced to do it this way - not change things to what contemporary theory feels is right. This method for these style drawers has probably been in use for over a thousand years. You assume the material is something like balsa or pine when it might just be alowood, which is just as available here in the states. Not very traditional. Then again, the video is about technique, not material. As far as insulting you - wasn't even trying very hard.
+1Howdy1 Doing something for a long time doesnt mean its the best way. His joints ARE sloppy, I can tell you that much. Pinning them together is probably fine for durability, but to compare flat face joinery to dovetails is idiotic at best. Someone doing the same shit every day for 80 years probably gets to a point where he knows what shortcuts he can take. From this video, I see lots and lots of gaps being pulled together with pins literally smashed into the sides. I see using a razor blade and a fucking hammer to pound out joints, a far cry from the delicate chisel and saw work of high end japenese joinery. Using cheap, soft wood and veneering it... thats also not what japanese craftsmanship is known for.

Gracias Kotaro por compartir con todo el mundo esta extraordinaria manera de trabajar la madera. La madera trabajada es kiri ?

Que admiración siento por este artista de la madera.
Красивая работа, красивые люди!
Excelente!!!
VARY COOL ! THANK YOU.
Canvas? I was sure it was some kind of bamboo. Love the video series as I watch them over and over
And pickup something new every time.
Its kiri also called paulownia, its technically a hardwood, but its actually extremely soft, resists swelling and repels a lot of insects
It is called “Utsugi no Kikugi”.
It will be called Deutzia pin if it says in English.
Самый быстрый ласточкин хвост, браво!
👍
true happiness!
those wooden pegs where they are? how do you make?
すばらしいです。コメントがすべて海外の人たちばかり？なぜでしょうか？
木釘に「うつぎ」を使うのには どんな理由があるのでしょうか？
Muito bonito...Mas quero ver este senhor fazer o mesmo trabalho com o (angico preto, massaranduva peroba vermelha! ) do Brasil! kkk
4:48 corded drill in the backround... lol
@zodiacoazul23 No. That has to be very soft wood since his mortise gauge cut right into it and his drill/reamer went right in.
At 3:16 what are those hand drills called?
It's like a scratch awl.
Thanks Charlie Tate
Jesse Taylor Japanese hand drill "Kiri"
Thanks Anbucoy.
not sure what they're called, but they're bamboo
What is that strapping used as a clamp when holding the glued drawers?
its canvas
Дедуля стамеской сверлит дерево!
He's using veneer but it's thick not so thin you can read through it.

This piece will last for hundreds of years because it will be sold for a lot of money, and the buyer will treat it very gently.
