I'm a retired mechanical engineer and am also getting into japanese joinery. I also do alot of electrical ... welding ... and metal casting. In the past I did a lot of cabinetry and paneled door but as a result of an accident those days are done lol. But am loving getting into some Japanese stuff which is how I found our channel. I love your energy and you channel. Thank you for all you work!
Can you please make a Playlist for all the kumiko related videos?
Lovely work. Hon the Irish. 😊
Thank you for explaining the whole process in details, beautiful lamp indeed! 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good man! Thank you!
Thanks for the video … using your design I made one for myself … slightly different (including a translation to
U.S. customary unit of measure) … I have been experimenting with Kumiko for about a year and your Shoji lamp is a great application
Good stuff!
You have done a great job explaining this. I saw a few jigs that I intend to replicate. Thanks.
One word John! ‘Stunning’
Thanks Mark
Savage looks awesome 👏
Just two words John - "Impeccably done work"!
Hello John, a very nice work, I would also like to dive into the world of Kumiko. Do you have a construction plan for the beautiful lamp that can be purchased?
Best regards from Daniel from Oberhausen
Really cool 😎 video
Glad you like it
This was super helpful! I had wanted to make a shoji lamp with kumiko, but I couldn't mentally figure out the frame. It was also really helpful seeing how you placed the bulb holder and how you used only one asa-no-ha pattern per side. I'd thought I was going to have to have two. Really helpful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful
Brilliant - I love the precision you have managed in this project John.
Cheers David
Very nice work. Looking forward to the future videos.
only a question, why you don't use a japanese rice paper? thanks
Beautiful piece. Well done sir. Lovely contrast between the lime wood and walnut.
Just come across this on my journey into learning, when cutting the rebates/notches in the posts you could set up two stop blocks. One on the right of the saw blade for the start and one to the left of the blade for the last cut, then easy to make first cut and nibble out to the last stop/ rotate repeat/ flip repeat.
Probably thought of this now as it’s a year old vid, but hey just putting the idea out there.
Great description of the process.
The lamp looks stunning John.
Really great project.
Can I ask what brand of slide, stops, guides you use as in the red variety.
Looks just awesome, great job! 👍
Thanks! 👍
Looks great
Thanks!
Love to hear that Tradify saves you so many hours!
Beautiful, John! Really nicely done! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Absolutely stunning.
I will be building one like this in the near future and will credit your video.

Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much!
Yet another excuse to buy a decent table saw- savage job!
Beautiful job John, so well done :)
I was recently cutting slots in the bottom of a box to hold small/thin items upright. I didn’t have a good method for getting them evenly spaced. I really like your simple jig with keyed slots to make accurate, repeatably spaced slots in a piece of wood. Definitely a technique to add to my repertoire.
Beautiful lantern - I may make one of these as a gift for someone!
I'm glad you found the video useful
really excellent
Incredible!
Thanks
That’s awesome John. You will be a samurai soon
Wow 👌 beautiful, from another sparky
Thank you! Cheers!
Skillful work and nice design. I’ve done a little Kumiko but haven’t put any of it to good use. I liked the video and subscribed as well, but truthfully, the long arduous shots of your working out of frame were annoying to me. Not anyone else I guess because no one else seemed to mention it. I’m just being “that guy”, I guess, but hope you’ll correct it in the future. Best regards and thank you for the inspiration.
looks fantastic, well done john
Cheers David
Very nice John, excellent work Sir.
Thank you kindly
Gotta respect a guy who dares to say "so, without further ado..." and then immediately launches into further ado.
Nice work john
Cheers Kim
Nice!
Glad you like it
Just discovered your channel...love it!
Welcome!!
Nice! Good
Thanks!
Just an idea if you had a stop block at each end when cutting the half laps on the frame it would be easier and quicker with less chance of slipping when removing the waste between the cuts
Hello, love the latern. On the jig for the table saw. I hope I can ask this correctly. Is the main kerf on the inside or outside?
Tremedouse job
Cheers Arthur
Love the kumiko lantern and I really fancy taking this up. My only concern is how would you finish the wood as it’s so fine for de nibbing etc.
MACCA!! You're an incredible woodworker for a sparky! 😂😂
Nah just mucking around mate, but honestly this is incredible workmanship and a stunning feature piece.
😂 Thanks!
Another question re equipment, what is the best brand of Rip Saw Guide (to make really thin cuts perfectly) I could use for a bandsaw? I am a very beginner in my having fun, live on a farm in regional western australia and often no phone service. If I cut myself, I am stuffed. I have decided to invest anything and everything that will keep my hands away from blades. Cheers.
Hello
Great instructions. Just discovered your channel Do you have a video on making the table saw jig you used to cut the various pieces, especially the 1/2 laps
Thanks
John
I don't have a video on the jig unfortunately
Do you think a stationary shop would have rice paper. I don't know where to look.
Online is your best bet, a quick google search will sort you out
John nice work is it a sparky thing wanting to see the bulb?
Love your videos.
It could be Paul.
No rebates to hold the panels?? Everything is held together by friction alone?
Friction fit works just fine, you could add glue but its really not needed
Who else tried to shoo the fly?
Pardon me,but did you say loin wood or lime wood?
Lime Wood
If you speak like this (obnoxious condescing baby-talk) in 'real life' someone is going to put you in the dirt ... assuming they haven't many times previously - I know I would. Channel blocked
You have done a great job explaining this. I saw a few jigs that I intend to replicate. Thanks.
