it is said in china that the architecture of tang dynasty has to be seen in japan and this is the reason they are basically the same buildings just that one is built in japan and one in china however japan did a much better job than china to preserve these buildings
You didn't explain wy it is more durable than other stuff, so il do it It is more durable becouse its wood on wood so its the same material that means in summer it will expand the same % as tze other part of the connection and stays in perfect shape, but if you have a connection whit wood and nails, the wood expands more when it gets hot in summer than the nail and will eventualy get lose
Wood expansion is one aspect yes, but it still can't be avoided when wood grain is 90 degrees to each other. More importantly not using nails avoid rust and rot from attacking the wood even after decades, and also allows for more flexible joints that can accomodate exansion/contraction as well as earthquakes.

Hold on a second. This is classical Chinese wood work. The technique was brought over to Japan. Known as “mortise and tenon” joints in the West, or “sunmao” (榫卯) in China, the technique was first discovered in China dating back as far as 7000 years ago. It was later brought to Japan where the technique flourished in the 12th century. At the pentacle of mortise and tenon joints woodwork is the Chinese Imperial Palace (aka the Forbidden City).

The complex has one of the most sophisticated seismic damper mechanism ever made, constructed entirely out of mortise and tenon woodwork joints.
This made me emotional. My grandpa was a carpenter and quite the perfectionist. He passed away years ago. It would have been so cool to show this to him, I know he would have loved to see this level of craftsmanship
If is true that Chinese carpenters came to Japan around 7th century in order to build Tempels. But : 1) there were carpenters in Japan, and Japanese Shinto-Shrine existed at 7th century. 2) lots of sophisticated joints have been developed in Japan, and 金剛組 exist since the time. As we can see that Japanese sword, 日本刀, has extremely high quality, there exists technique in Japanese 宮大工, which is unique in Japan.
@@Nobody-iy6tmJapanese sent monks and democrats to China during the Sui dynasty and brought the technology back home, I did not see any conflict with that.
This is excellent craftsmanship! Reminds me of the older days, not as intricate of course. But we used to cut large support beams in a way for them to fit together, then bore a large hole manually and drive in a large wooden peg. It was back when we would stack rocks to build a foundation for a house.
This ancient construction technique was ancient China in origin, not Japan. In ancient of Tang Dynasty, it was introduced to Japan and Korea, and then became popular there. Actually, this ancient technique is not only focus on furniture, and also used it ancient architecture in ancient China. Until to now, some artisan is still used it for furniture or tiny toys. The ancient technique is named in “Tenon and Mortise”(榫卯),and it was deigned and created by the ancient artisan - LuBan (507BC).
And also india.this technology was specially used in Indian shipbuilding.huge ships were built using this same technology that the ancient ships could carry huge loads and usually lasted for more than 100 years.the British destroyed the Indian shipb uilding.
As a carpenter trainee, I can attest to how hard it is to make perfect wood joints...mine are above average, considering I only started recently, but I wouldn't even dream of achieving such precision...it would be so nice to master this technique to be able to.
Probably we can’t, it can’t be made into automata, making furniture of these is just not appealing to the capitalist interest, and we are firmly into capitalism nowadays, if you want to go against it you’ll need to pay a lot, which no everyday ordinary can do it, thus it can’t expand and remain in our society. It’s sad and fked up, even people says these antiques got destroyed in mao’s era, yet I doubt it can remain in the society we are living now, since no one is spending on it.
Temples and other traditional structures built in this way have stood for hundreds of years and survived thousands of earthquakes. This is next-level carpentry. MAD skills! #Respect
this is not from Japan, original came from China. In 507 AD in China, there was a great architect called Lu Ban, this buckle is his invention, in ancient China Tang Dynasty, Song Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, a large number of Japanese scholars and architects came to China to study.
This is actually a ancient Chinese technique, they use to build the rims of houses out of only wood and it would hold up quite well too(it’s not Japanese, it’s chinese, but Japanese still use this some times cuz they got earthquakes)
I remembered hearing that technique was prefered for shrines and temples, since it was bulit with no need of nails. And if a piece got rotton they could easily reolace it without damage its surroundings.
I know a guy who is a timber framer. Its a similar concept. Wooden pegs and specific cuts and joints are used intead of nails to hold up giant structures. It is a very time consuming and skillfull process. Its pretty impressive work, which makes me like this video even more. Mad respect to anyone who does sashimono. The effort and skills needed to do something like this are insane.
While the process is definitely time consuming, I think what matters most is the end result. Not only do you get a beautiful design, but also a very sturdy structure. Hard work for high quality will always have my respect.
Actually Japan acquired this technique from China. And China is also not the only one who invented it. Similar technique has been developed in elsewhere such as Europe and their stave church. Ancient China built enormous wooden constructions like temples and giant towers using this technique. And what unique to China is there's a technical treatise in Song Dynasty called "菅造法式” comprehensively and scientifically demonstrated their wood building technology.
@@abhishekpasThere is no traditions of India using all sorts of furniture. The Chinese for hundreds of years have their meals on proper chairs and tables for their meals. Today many Indians still seat on floor using their fingers for their meals. Many centuries old Chinese furniture can be found in world's museums. But not from India.
@@jacku8304 we have tradition to eat on small table called as pidha made from wooden. Still it is in use. We still in villages make furniture with a locking system. It's widely prevalent even today.
@@user-io6xq4wd6sactually it's from China but let the Japanese learn it at the Song dynasty (the most florish time of the Maritime Silk Road) (I maybe kinda nerdy but this was the true history)
This technique was vastly used in the East Asia, originating from China. It may vary in places, but was very commonly used not only in Japan, but also in China, Korea, India, etc. Also, though it may come from a different origin, there were similar construction techniques in Europe too. Just trying to say these techniques aren't native nor original for Japan. A lot of these stuff can be seen all over the world, and especially in Korea, where these techniques were really put into hand and mastered, then were passed on to Japan. But it is unique that Japan still uses and polishes these techniques to the modern days, thanks to them being vulnerable against frequent earthquakes. Wooden buildings noticeably withstand better against earthquakes, and because of that nature, Japanese have really mastered this technique and is probably in the best position right now.
Correct. In China furniture, such as tables, chairs, and chests, were created in this fashion. Even temples and palaces were constructed, using these methods,which never saw a single nail.
@@harisankar1932 true, for some reason whenever someone mentions the word, there is a special form of racism which is very dumb as well since Indian is even less heterogeneous than europe.
@@harisankar1932 Honesly, I don't like nor like seeing people spilling racism around, but there are a lot of Indians who say everything they have is superior compared to others and just makes people want to be 'that guy'. You know what they say, ultranationalism is just as toxic as racism.
These woodwork techniques are Chinese in origin. Being historically the hub in East Asia, Chinese had influenced many neighboring Asian cultures extensively.
This is also how the Japanese temples that have stood for over a thousand years are constructed. They do not use any metal nails, only precise joint work.
In Germany we have similar but way less artistic techniques. I would say it's like the beginner-level of Japanese woodworking. (Tho these are still quiet strong joints)

How beautiful. We used to make furniture using dove tailed joints but that has gone now, pity as furniture made these ways will last and never falls apart. I found sashimono so interesting to look at, it would be interesting to learn I bet. I wonder if there is anywhere outside of Japan you can learn how to do it?
to be fair, such 継手 is very common in East Asian countries for example, Chinese and Korean traditional wooden buildings use similar techniques also they're sophisticated very well 差物 isn't unique, just one style of various styles of 木工継手 the origin of 差物 is came from ancient Chinese Buddhism Temple
the 継手 (wooden mechanics, axis) 差物 (tolerance?) are all derive from the word 榫 (wood + accuracy). the woodcrafts that shown on this video is 榫卯 (sun-mao)
@@mikuisgod4591Dude…. Don’t ‘just’ these pieces of art-joinery. Almost anyone can make a dovetail today. But these joints have so much intricacies they are well beyond the capabilities of I guess more than 90% of woodworkers. And I think I’m guessing that conservatively.
You probably don’t remember, but back in the ‘50s, the label ‘made in Japan’ indicated that the item had very limited durability. Now, it’s a sign of quality!

This is excellent craftsmanship! Reminds me of the older days, not as intricate of course. But we used to cut large support beams in a way for them to fit together, then bore a large hole manually and drive in a large wooden peg. It was back when we would stack rocks to build a foundation for a house.
I believe first one is inspired from Perunthachan's Dove tail .. Perunthachan was a skilled Engineer/ Architect.
His stone works are amazing...
This ancient construction technique was ancient China in origin, not Japan. In ancient of Tang Dynasty, it was introduced to Japan and Korea, and then became popular there. Actually, this ancient technique is not only focus on furniture, and also used it ancient architecture in ancient China. Until to now, some artisan is still used it for furniture or tiny toys. The ancient technique is named in “Tenon and Mortise”(榫卯),and it was deigned and created by the ancient artisan - LuBan (507BC).
Nobody cares about the truth.

It's not only Japanese. Alot of other Asian countries used that kind of wood working technique.
This wood joint is called Sunmao. Japanese copied it from ancient china.
And also india.this technology was specially used in Indian shipbuilding.huge ships were built using this same technology that the ancient ships could carry huge loads and usually lasted for more than 100 years.the British destroyed the Indian shipb uilding.

As a carpenter trainee, I can attest to how hard it is to make perfect wood joints...mine are above average, considering I only started recently, but I wouldn't even dream of achieving such precision...it would be so nice to master this technique to be able to.

Probably we can’t, it can’t be made into automata, making furniture of these is just not appealing to the capitalist interest, and we are firmly into capitalism nowadays, if you want to go against it you’ll need to pay a lot, which no everyday ordinary can do it, thus it can’t expand and remain in our society. It’s sad and fked up, even people says these antiques got destroyed in mao’s era, yet I doubt it can remain in the society we are living now, since no one is spending on it.

Not without Japanese wants to have kids to ensures this technique got passed to future generations.
알빠노?
를 존나 길게 설명하네
its important,its belong China
It teaches one patience by thinking and planning ahead and pride in one's accomplishment.
We have a similar method in Romania called the dovetail
That's amazing
Temples and other traditional structures built in this way have stood for hundreds of years and survived thousands of earthquakes. This is next-level carpentry. MAD skills! #Respect
this is not from Japan, original came from China. In 507 AD in China, there was a great architect called Lu Ban, this buckle is his invention, in ancient China Tang Dynasty, Song Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, a large number of Japanese scholars and architects came to China to study.
They have not, they have had been rebuilt and replaced over time.
This is actually a ancient Chinese technique, they use to build the rims of houses out of only wood and it would hold up quite well too(it’s not Japanese, it’s chinese, but Japanese still use this some times cuz they got earthquakes)

I remembered hearing that technique was prefered for shrines and temples, since it was bulit with no need of nails. And if a piece got rotton they could easily reolace it without damage its surroundings.

@TruthSeeker-ql1hhlol shut up bro, literally no one cares
I know a guy who is a timber framer. Its a similar concept. Wooden pegs and specific cuts and joints are used intead of nails to hold up giant structures. It is a very time consuming and skillfull process. Its pretty impressive work, which makes me like this video even more. Mad respect to anyone who does sashimono. The effort and skills needed to do something like this are insane.
Witch
While the process is definitely time consuming, I think what matters most is the end result. Not only do you get a beautiful design, but also a very sturdy structure. Hard work for high quality will always have my respect.
the quality of wood and steel tools to do that never crossed your mind, only the long work and skills needed

Japanese learned this from the Batak tribe in Sumatra, Indonesia.
Batak people are famous for their extraordinary intelligence
It's actually originated from China
This is insane!! I can't imagine the amount of intelligence and patience it takes to learn this!
Actually Japan acquired this technique from China. And China is also not the only one who invented it. Similar technique has been developed in elsewhere such as Europe and their stave church. Ancient China built enormous wooden constructions like temples and giant towers using this technique. And what unique to China is there's a technical treatise in Song Dynasty called "菅造法式” comprehensively and scientifically demonstrated their wood building technology.
Okay? They just showed Japanese way
@@Re-xh4ox it’s like you saying the Newton's first law in Japanese way, there’s no such thing

This was imported from Tang dynasty, ancient China.
Imported from India to China.
@@abhishekpasThere is no traditions of India using all sorts of furniture. The Chinese for hundreds of years have their meals on proper chairs and tables for their meals.
Today many Indians still seat on floor using their fingers for their meals.
Many centuries old Chinese furniture can be found in world's museums. But not from India.
@@jacku8304 we have tradition to eat on small table called as pidha made from wooden. Still it is in use. We still in villages make furniture with a locking system. It's widely prevalent even today.

So where is the tradition or culture of Tang dynasty in current China? Current Chinese construction technique seems fragile.

@@user-io6xq4wd6sactually it's from China but let the Japanese learn it at the Song dynasty (the most florish time of the Maritime Silk Road) (I maybe kinda nerdy but this was the true history)
from china
How shameless. It's Chinese, not Japanese tec.
The way it just slides together is just pleasing.
It‘s a traditional woodworking technique not only in Japan but also whole world
Now this is quality woodwork!!!
This technique was vastly used in the East Asia, originating from China. It may vary in places, but was very commonly used not only in Japan, but also in China, Korea, India, etc.
Also, though it may come from a different origin, there were similar construction techniques in Europe too.
Just trying to say these techniques aren't native nor original for Japan. A lot of these stuff can be seen all over the world, and especially in Korea, where these techniques were really put into hand and mastered, then were passed on to Japan.
But it is unique that Japan still uses and polishes these techniques to the modern days, thanks to them being vulnerable against frequent earthquakes. Wooden buildings noticeably withstand better against earthquakes, and because of that nature, Japanese have really mastered this technique and is probably in the best position right now.
yes
You mentioned India here comes the racist comments
Correct. In China furniture, such as tables, chairs, and chests, were created in this fashion. Even temples and palaces were constructed, using these methods,which never saw a single nail.
@@harisankar1932 true, for some reason whenever someone mentions the word, there is a special form of racism which is very dumb as well since Indian is even less heterogeneous than europe.
@@harisankar1932 Honesly, I don't like nor like seeing people spilling racism around, but there are a lot of Indians who say everything they have is superior compared to others and just makes people want to be 'that guy'.
You know what they say, ultranationalism is just as toxic as racism.
These woodwork techniques are Chinese in origin. Being historically the hub in East Asia, Chinese had influenced many neighboring Asian cultures extensively.
No one cares CCP bot the Japanese mastered it
It's was originated in ancient China. Luban, a craftsman of The spring and autumn period, invented this. And it called kongming lock.
This is also how the Japanese temples that have stood for over a thousand years are constructed. They do not use any metal nails, only precise joint work.
I see those craftsmanship everywhere in China, especially in the country side.
This wood joint is called Sunmao. Japanese copied it from ancient china.
@@yanyanz3011榫卯

Such craftsmanship should be applauded ❤
How beautiful. We used to make furniture using dove tailed joints but that has gone now, pity as furniture made these ways will last and never falls apart. I found sashimono so interesting to look at, it would be interesting to learn I bet. I wonder if there is anywhere outside of Japan you can learn how to do it?
Beautiful workmanship.
as a person with virtually zero background in carpentry, i am absolutely blown away by this level of craftsmanship
As someone who can’t get screws to fit in straight when assembling furniture, I wish everything was like this.
to be fair, such 継手 is very common in East Asian countries
for example, Chinese and Korean traditional wooden buildings use similar techniques
also they're sophisticated very well
差物 isn't unique, just one style of various styles of 木工継手
the origin of 差物 is came from ancient Chinese Buddhism Temple
I think it's originated in China first then spread to other east Asian countries.
I'm not sure how common it still is in Japan, but in china it seems to be pretty much impossible to find these days.
To be fair half of Japanese is mostly Mandarin LOL
Mandarin in Japan?
Strange because Chinese hate the Japanese.
Genocide by Japan in China.
the 継手 (wooden mechanics, axis) 差物 (tolerance?) are all derive from the word 榫 (wood + accuracy). the woodcrafts that shown on this video is 榫卯 (sun-mao)
Japanese craftsmanship is just next level. No wonder everything they make is quality.
This is literally just a dovetail joint.
@@mikuisgod4591Dude…. Don’t ‘just’ these pieces of art-joinery. Almost anyone can make a dovetail today. But these joints have so much intricacies they are well beyond the capabilities of I guess more than 90% of woodworkers. And I think I’m guessing that conservatively.
@@PatNetherlanderIf you want to lecture about geometrical aesthetic, there are some cathedrals on Europe instead of carved wooden joints.
Even the women
You probably don’t remember, but back in the ‘50s, the label ‘made in Japan’ indicated that the item had very limited durability. Now, it’s a sign of quality!
Such beautiful craftsmanship. A true work of art. If I had the funds I would have my home built with sashimoto style
榫卯结构
For those who don’t know.
Those was invented in China, and then imported to Korea and Japan.
I hope there are many who are willing to take up this craft. Need to preserve and carry on !
No one I do work for can afford this type of craftsmanship
