I live in a rented town house and had to place my power tools in storage. Kumiko lets me be creative without overloading the dust bin or complaints of the loud noises from the other side of the wall (one side is the landlady). It is a pleasure to see it becoming "main stream".
joli travail !
I’ve never heard of the 65.5 degree corner. I only use 90, 45, 67.5 and 22.5 - in other words, increments of 22.5 degrees of keeping on halving 90 degrees.
0:41 That’s what he said.
Very timely! I was just about to embark on an kumiko project
Ah yes, finally...
something to do with all of those popsicle sticks😉.
Fantastic work, James! Really well done! 😃
Looking forward to see you using it!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Really neat jig man
Truly excellent, can’t wait to see this in use! Will have to make one of my own.
Looks good. I’ll have to make one I’ve been interested in trying it out
Good morning my friends... Have a very blessed day
Thanks man and congrats on first!
Wow, brilliant!
That jig is brilliant! When ever I've seen people making Kumiko before, I've always thought that having so many jigs is just a good way of cluttering up a workshop and I really don't have room in my 8' X 8' workshop for that........ it's already over full as it is 😅 Condensing them down into 1 small jig is an awesome idea and makes the space issue a lot easier to deal with 😊👍👍👍👍
I got hooked on the idea of making kumiko after watching the Pask Makes channel, looking forward to seeing what you do by hand.
Hi from cloudy town!
You're the only woodworker I know who treats the Japanese saw as a specialist tool, I can respect that. It does get quite old to hear the same "one saw is superior to the other for every application" spiel, while we all have both chisels and planes without exception, despite them essentially being just as similar as Japanese saws are to western. A plane is just a wide chisel in a jig after all 😉
right on. every saw is a specialist. some have a wider range then others, but they each have their spot where they shine.
That Bridge City Joint Maker, beside being useful in Kumiko, would have been handy in making your jig!
I would have used it for that except for it would not extend up far enough to make the cuts on these. It only extends up an inch and a half or so.
Wow that's cool
Great tutorial..... Thank you. At 4:17 minutes you use a small adjustable "golden" planner - Please let me know the Brand of this planner.... i like the fact that it is "height" adjustable...
That is the bridge City tools mini black line
Thank you James
Great video, where did you get that block plane with adjustable sides? It's fantastic
That is from bridge city. here is a video on it. ruclips.net/video/iIKd9tQsw3k/видео.html
Would you say the angles on your jig cover the majority of angles required to make various patterns?
the most common patterns yes. but there are a LOT of patterns. 45, 67.5 and 22.5 will cover 90%+ of the patterns.
I had never heard of kumiko before
It is a fun japanese touch to doors on cabinets.
07:52 I keep telling you how Japanese saws have benefits over western saws!
I was looking to remake my kumiko jigs as they went off due to wood movement, and I'm so glad you posted how to make them as you are one of my trusted sources of hand tool and woodworking info, but James, in my history with kumiko, I have used 67.5 not 65.5 as 22.5+67.5 = 90 so I'm wondering whats your opinion on using the 65.5, thanks for sharing 🙏🙏🤗
yes I misspoke about the angle and did not catch it tell the upload. now I cant add anything to address that. oops!
@@WoodByWrightHowTo haha no worries, best you can do is either pin the comment and just advise them :)))
I just worked through the night to make a beautiful kumiko lampshade for my daughter using James' instructions from this video. The 2 degree variance created a vortex phenomenon well known in Japan that caused the wood to catch fire burning down the entire house and street I live on. You wouldn't think that 2 degrees would make such a difference. Luckily my daughter was able to rescue the eyes from the ashes of her teddy bear, which she's glued to the underside of the bench that we now live under, staring back at us as a reminder to always validate the information you get from RUclips videos.
@@ricos1497 I was asking James if what he had done was the correct way as I was not sure if you take 67.5 or 65.5, as some times there tends to be a gap in the kumiko if the angles go off which happened to me as my jigs moved due to humidity changes, I was wondering if we use 65.5 rather than 67.5, and with such precise work, these degrees matter an awful lot, would you call 88 degrees square (90) no right. So I was curious, have a great day 👍
@@RaaghavWoodWorks yes, I was just being cheeky, please ignore me. You were completely right to ask!
Do you serve saki during these sessions?
Looking forward to the kumiko! I really pleased with your work and how it has motivated me to get more proficient at hands tools - - really enjoying the whole feel of using them. Thanks!! BTW where did you find your miter square? The 45 degree dedicated square you use about 2:40 minute mark. I have not been able to find one for sale. Thanks much!
I got mine at an MWTCA meet. you my want to check my list of online sellers on HandToolFinder.com I am sure most of them would have one for sale.
@@WoodByWrightHowTo Thanks much! Let's make some sawdust!
what bevel gauge are you using. Pretty!
That one was made by a friend of mine.
Been wondering what a kumiko was and why it is.
What do you sharpen your planes to? I go to 16k now to get the results I want. Many people go lower and I don’t understand how they can get good results
I use a diamond plat that is around 1200 then hit the strop the refine the bur. To be honest grit only counts on wet stones. once you shift to paste, sand paper, or Dimond plates the grit does not mean the same thing.
Newbie here...newbie question...What kind of plane was that?
which one. I used 5 or 6 in this video. if you are talking about the one to cut a groove that was a Stanley 55 combination plane. here is an old video covering it. ruclips.net/video/6sY1_3KkiWw/видео.html
@@WoodByWrightHowTo that’s it exactly! Thank you! And thanks for the link!
AWESOME 😎👍🏻. Saw your teasers on other socials ;) (slicing with that ruins).
Can't wait to watch video about making kumiko!!!
Thanks James & Sarah (was she behind the camera?).
PS What's that tiny block plane 😍?
Luke is a friend on mine that does a lot of the video work. Here is a video on that plane.ruclips.net/video/iIKd9tQsw3k/видео.html
Walnut??? I thought you had taken a vow to only use white oak?
Sorry Father for I have sinned...
10:00 did you forget the BLO ??
No finish on this one. I may end up doing some carving in the future so just decided not to finish it.
35th.
"Can't out thicker stock in a thinner groove" might be more accurate?
Kumiko, wasn't that the love interest's name of Daniel in Karate Kid 2?
Anyway, cool tool build,
James-san. But can you catch a fly with chop-sticks?
Now show me... plane the bench...
Comment down below ;p
Seems to me like it would've been easier to get this piece dialed in with your fancy shooting board. Is that something you would've done if you weren't teaching the rest of us how this all comes together?
I might have but the block was too tall for the shooting board.
@@WoodByWrightHowTo ah fair enough... it was a chunky boy lol
I think walnut smells like gym socks
The dust...ugggh.
Lol
is it just me (haven't finished the video yet) or does it look like some teeth are missing from James's ryoba on the crosscut side?
Yep. The cross cut side has two teeth missing. Let my daughter use my good one and it didn't come back the way I gave it to her lol thankfully I've got a replacement blade for next time I need to use the cross cut side
One of those angles is wrong you know, it should be 67.5 degrees not 65.5. It's 90-22.5, which is 90 minus half of 45.
Right on. I realized I misspoke just after uploading it. Unfortunately nothing I can change now.
Really awesome jig! Desmond King authors some books on the Shoji and Kumiko design if you're looking for reference materials on the subjects.
If you cut them at right angle, it’s not right. You have to cut them not at right angle to get the right angle.
Whatever I do I am always Wright
I’m sick to my back teeth of RUclips woodworkers calling big lumps of expensive hardwood “scrap”.
If it's left over from another project it's scrap.
