After watching the video advert i was still skeptical. But when i finally downloaded the plans ruclips.net/user/postUgkxZF0EMnrujZvqHhGkxiz559uIABJWR9TG i was very impressed. The whole plan was just as you said in the video. Thank you very much. I now have a large and valuable collection for my woodworks. This is great!
In all the years of working in this trade, believing I was reasonably "experienced" in what I was doing - this video proves me wrong in everything I have ever done! This gentleman certainly inspired me, he is a true craftsman.
David Sheppard ...DITTO, I’m no master but I’ve 15+ years in cabinet design and building, taught me by Grampa with hand tools then later, self-taught using power tools when convenient.
No power tools, no fancy workbench, no fancy jigs, or measuring devices. Just years of dedicated practice and dedication to the craft. Amazing, I hope younger generations follow you so this art is never lost.
I know machine tooled wood has its place, but I love hand tooled wood. I admire this gentleman's craftsmanship so much. Thank you for sharing this video.
Anyone that doesn't appreciate this gentleman's craftsmanship with wood, just doesn't understand the precision required. And doing it with hand tools makes it much more difficult. A true artist. Wonderful work, thanks for sharing!
The ancient art and science of wood work! Just brings back memories of how things used to be done by these Master craftsman. The tools, hand saw, wood plane, vice etc and various gauges for making and measuring the wood is done with such precision and care beautiful. Still own a 4 piece hand made wooden settee and arm chairs that was handed down form 3 generations ago. Thanks for the upload
That has to be humblest RUclips video title with a superlative in it. That joint is such an sideshow, although beautiful. Plus everything without a sliver of sanding. Absolutely beautiful.
Dear Sir, What pleasure & joy it is to witness some mere slabs of wood being transformed into truly magnificent pieces of furniture. I can imagine having one of those in one's house & never tire watching it's natural beauty. Kind regards.
Dear Sir, Thank you very much for your hearted response. Good projects &/ documentaries deserve good comments. I do believe yours definitely qualify. To not comment would be a failure to acknowledge what is worth appreciating & expressing one's opinion. Kind regards.
@ 8:07 when he pushes the last drawer in, you see one or two popping out because of the air pressure from his ultra tight fit and thus demonstrating how easily they glide. If you know anything about woodworking,this blows the mind 🤯
Those drawers are too tight. You want them to glide smoothly, not rub. Those drawers will likely bind on a humid day, and the other drawers pushing out is a design flaw.
Everything he does and he uses (wooden tools!) is profoundly beautiful. This man is putting his soul in that piece of fourniture he's creating. There is no money to pay such a philosophical craftmanship. Big respect.
I'm just blown away by this mans skills and patience. I've spent years believing I was blessed to have been given the opportunity to acquire all that I have learned. Yet for the first time I feel so humbled watching another man wield his simple hand-made tools like a mighty sword against my entire shop full of power tools ....a true artisan indeed! Maybe I should ask if they have any openings at the meat-packing plant.
If you enjoy precision craftsmanship I encourage you to check out a channel called clickspring. The guy is an absolute master. His channel started with him making a clock by hand and now hes halfway finished recreating the antikythera mechanism. If it weren't enough of a challenge he is remaking and using period correct tools like a vise, drills and even hand files.
Somehow, Japanese woodworkers seem to be the best. I also love their tools. Those drawers are cushion fit...in other words they are so precise that the air pressure of pushing one drawer pushes out another. I'm just a hobby woodworker but if I had the chance to live my life over again I would choose to be a craftsman of this status and lead a very simple but satisfying life.
In my humble opinion, Japanese and Nordic woodworkers and craftsmen in general, owe their master skills to a couple of factors: patience... infinite patience, and humility to never cease to learn, from others and from their very own mistakes.
It really helps that Japan has a system in place to fund the Living National Treasure. Basically an artist of sufficient quality gets an annual stipend to preserve and pass on their craft, helping to free their time to dedicate to just doing whatever it is they do as well as it can be done. It is a lifetime award of about $30,000usd a year.
I own a small trim carpentry business and enjoy working with my hands to create decor that others appreciate. I could make far more in another line of work, but am fortunate to have the option. That said, this level of craftsmanship makes me emotional. I could watch for hours.
Craftsmanship that must be respected by all who have ever worked with timber. Truly inspiring to watch the precision tools that themselves were handmade. Delightful to watch. Thank you for sharing
Yeah, piston fit, looks super today, feel like a dimwit next week when drawers frozen solid and no way to get behind them to dry out and push them out. Drawer bottoms swell against box sides, and full height drawer backs scrape against dust board. Sure, no central heat or air in many homes still, but western construction evolved with same conditions during the same time, same tools, and gave more due to the movement of wood across grain.
Love the satisfaction in his face seeing the drawers being pushed out from another being pushed in... The tolerances being so small, so exact, that they’re effectively air sealed. It’s beautiful.
This is such a joy to watch. The music accompanies it so very well, it highlights the peace and serenity that can come from traditional woodwork and the creation of something so beautiful from something so simple.
Cuts are so perfect that it’s fricken air tight... that’s why a drawer opens when he tries to close another drawer. Like a piston engine... the air pressure causes another drawer to open.
This demonstration of superb craftmanship functions as a meditation for me. I will never be able to reach his skills, but it is such a pleasure to watch.
Simply amazing! The fact the air pressure from one drawer pushes out the other just shows the level of accuracy & skill, all with hand tools too! Can only dream of ever being even half this good :(
I am not sure, if this is intended. One drawer should not open if you close another, otherwise it gets annoying in daily use. Thats the reason that you build the backside of a drawer a little bit lower than the side-parts, so that the air can flow within the cabinet, over the backside of the drawer. But I am very sure this master craftsman knows all that, so I am sure, that he has a reason to build the drawers like that and I would like to ask him about that. But I cannot imagine the reason being the random opening of a drawer, when you close one.
Piston fit drawers are doable and maybe not practical but those mitered blind dovetails are mad skills. Beautiful and very precise build. I wish one day I’ll be half of craftsman he is.
it's called Hinoki, Hinoki is a softwood, related to Yellow Cedar, Port Orford Cedar, and Atlantic White Cedar (north American species of the same botanical family, none of which are true cedars by the way).
It saves time when you cut the pins by eye, and since these are hidden anyway it doesn't matter if they're not 'perfect' ( and you 'mark them over' for cutting the tails anyway). You often find this on older furniture.
I have never seen such a Carpenter. Traditional way of making the Furniture. Perfection matchless. Nowadays people are using so many expensive machines but no match with this Carpenter. Awesome 👏
@@yematosan8837 I'm saying it's amazingly insane. I couldn't make something so precise without a jointer, planer, tablesaw etc... Though it does inspire me to try a small project completely with a minimum of hand tools - learn how far my knowledge and skills alone can take me.
I've got nearly every power tool invented and he used none... Not even a power drill to fit the handles. I felt like an apprentice again when watching him work. Impressed!
I feel the same, sometimes I stop to work due to the lack of certain tools, this video make me appreciate all the tool I have, this also encourage me to seek solutions when seems to not have one
I know today we have tools to 'save us time' but you can't beat handmade craftsman ship in projects. No power tools here, just pure hard work and pride in the work he does.
Just incredible workmanship, unfortunately I'm still stuck at pocket screws. And besides there's no way for me to sit down on the floor using foot as a vice without my back or bottom giving out.
But pocket screws are good for a few decades at most. Well setup joinery will last centuries, or even millennia in the right environment. Look at wooden furniture and joinery survivng from Egypt's Old Kingdom.
JP - The Europeans are also master of woodworking! I know is not trendy to say it now days, but if you travel a bit and have some knowledge about woodworking, you'll see its true.
Indeed. But the Japanese are in an entirely different level. In Europe, the French and Italian cabinets are famous, but those are the exceptions, not the norm. The Japanese are blessed with a thousand years of superior woodworking tools and an abundance of wood. But looking at a bloke like the one in the video, this level of woodworking skills is witnessed only with violinmakers and stockmakers in Europe, and this bloke was just making cabinets.
Never tire of watching such craftsman. Always an inspiration. Finally getting to a point where I'm reasonably happy using my Japanese planes to smooth, flatten and polish timbers and boards but alas, I'll never be able to work like the gentleman in the video. Too many years of working on building sites have shot my knees to the point where even just watching this chap create his masterpieces sitting down like that sets my Knees off!! Thanks for the upload WE.
It would be biblical in length, including the Dead Sea Scrolls, The Old Testament, and the New Testament, all in one volume, and in the Ancient Languages...
How could you put a thumbs down to this video? It’s so inspiring to see such a talented craftsman working at his trade! I hope that he has trained apprentices to carry on the traditions of fine cabinetmaking. A joy to watch.
He is a real master. He does everything in patience. Watching him was like meditation. Thank you for sharing this video 👍💯
You are on to something there, I find these very soothing, the degree of accuracy is incredible.

Well said! Thank you very much!
This is an amazing craftsman. The quality of his work is top notch. A fit so tight the closing of one drawer pushes another out. Nearly air tight!
billybob holcomb oh that is why makes sense haha he really is amazing
tight and smooth
That’s nice and all but it’ll drive me crazy to open another drawer by closing one all the time. 😉
Seems like a good idea, until nearly every drawer gets so tight it's stuck because the wood swell.
Yeah, piston fit, looks super today, feel like a dimwit next week when drawers frozen solid and no way to get behind them to dry out and push them out. Drawer bottoms swell against box sides, and full height drawer backs scrape against dust board.

Simply amazing! The fact the air pressure from one drawer pushes out the other just shows the level of accuracy & skill, all with hand tools too! Can only dream of ever being even half this good :(
Practice, determination and discipline will get you a lot further than dreaming.
So it IS actual air pressure pushing out those drawers??? The drawer fits are that precise?
build the drawers 1/32" oversize in every direction and take off .001" swipes with the hand plane.
What a pleasure to watch a Master Craftsman in action. Thank you for the video sir.
This is OLD SCHOOL precision.

Piston fit drawers are doable and maybe not practical but those mitered blind dovetails are mad skills. Beautiful and very precise build. I wish one day I’ll be half of craftsman he is.
The best is he was doing them by sight rather than markings, i get it wrong when i've spent an hour setting it out !!!
What type of wood is he using on the drawers? Is it a softwood or are those marking gauges so amazingly sharp to cut the dovetails in any wood?
it's called Hinoki, Hinoki is a softwood, related to Yellow Cedar, Port Orford Cedar, and Atlantic White Cedar (north American species of the same botanical family, none of which are true cedars by the way).
