    When I was young in Hawaii, my best friends dad was from Japan, He used to teach me and him this method for building things like sheds or what not, now I’m older with 20 acres in Tennessee and I built my self a little tool shed in Memory of him ❤

    Its amazing how buildings were built, beautifully carved, close fitting joints that were designed to be disassembled due to tsunami & earthquake damage. Renew& reassemble damaged lumber back to original glory. Glue not even required, just held together with blocks & wedges. Japanese joinery is a work of art !

      @@REAL-UNKNOWN-SHINOBI Time and labor constraints. Carving something like that takes a fair amount of time, even with modern tooling on something like a CNC machine, that'd be a shitload of machine time when you start upscaling. Then there's the time/skill required for install, nevermind designing it with modern architecture, and engineering in mind.
      It blows my mind how they carved things like that by hand, and did so fast enough for it to be a practical means of building houses, nevermind the precision needed for making adjustments in the field, since reality isn't always like the sheet of paper the engineers draw the prints on.

I almost got sick, everything is fake, the wood is fake, the flowers are fake, everything is plastic.. It does not look safe to burn ever with all the plastic and glue. It fits well into the fake world we live in, but we all need to think carefully about how we live. It would be wonderful to have a completely wooden house that I can leave to my grandchildren.

What we see is the end result, not the long process that is usually involved with its creation and thus things can appear overwhelmingly complicated while they were often just developed through a lot of trying and failing until things worked and that's what us outsiders who were not involved with the process then get.

      Wood happens to be the best commonly available material to make a structure out of if you want it to resist an earthquake, the more dangerous natural hazard for old well-made japanese buildings is not earthquakes, but fire. suffice to say, no level of impressive craftsmanship in joinery will prevent wood from burning.

      Residential construction in Japan is about modern or inexpensive building materials, increasingly adopting Western comforts, quick construction, and not necessarily about longevity. As anywhere, though, some builders and architects still retain some of the ideals and skills. Temple carpentry is the only place that joint design and high quality of wood preparation is still the equal of historical technique.

      This was a human's life's work. A human who knew that it would be one of their only lingering impressions on the world. I feel privileged to enjoy their work. :)

    Is this the same house from 2 videos ago ? Because if so, damn. I never thought I'd see a house going through deconstruction like that and I'm pretty sure the artisans who made this could never imagine it either. Quite the sight to behold.

      @Shadyshanks That's the point of that kind of carpentry, to not use any nails I think.

      @adtopkek4826 3 года назад +5

      @Shadyshanks Where are you going to get those nails from? Japan? The land of nearly zero Iron and the little iron they have is of poor quality. People would raid houses after they burned down to steal the nails out of the ashes they were that valuable.

      It's very neat indeed. But it's true like some people point out extremely time consuming (inefficient) to build. And simple repairs can be a lot of trouble. Japanese carpentry is interesting, but in general Japanese houses are often drafty and cold, and often not a desirable place to be compared to Northern European houses.

    I think at this point, the Japanese are just showing off! This craftsmanship is beyond imagination! I shudder to think how much precision it would have taken to cut those logs to such perfection! They take something and make it a work of art! Their Katanas, knives, pens and even their damn bonsai scissors are crafted to perfection!

      If they were doing it I can imagine it wouldnt take as long as people thing but it would take a few years to get to that level of experience to make it effortless. Learn and practice for 10 years to make it in 10 minutes.
