Repairing Damaged Wood Beams 傷んだ木材の修理［埋木作業］

- Repairing the damaged surface of this century-old beam from the traditional Japanese house we are currently working on. The damage was only on the surface and the material was still strong and useable, so it was repaired to allow it to continue standing for hopefully at least another century.

There is just something so very enjoyable about watching someone do something they are very good at.
Happy to hear that 😊
Well said Makena.
Timber is a precious commodity, its great to see you giving the beam a new life
After watching so many of these videos, I was really shocked to see wood glue. It makes total sense, but it's like the first time I saw you pull out a power tool and went "Oh yeah! Those exist!"
Haha many of my previous videos on the channel were projects I made for “fun” when I had time during lockdown. But with these, I hoped to give a look into how carpentry in Japan really looks, including the “not-so-romantic” parts.
I deeply enjoy that the subtitles are constantly saying, “applause” !
Just perfect well done good job ⛩️🎏🙏🏽
Great vid. I had no idea you could repair a beam. I guess one would cost a fortune to replace . Interesting stuff 👍
Beautiful work. Lovely to see repairs made, honouring the craftsmen before you.
Just remember to have the repaired part upwards so it is in compression since there isn't one continues wood board on that part any more.
The bottom of a load bearing beam should always be one continuous board as it is in tension, and everything above the half point is in tension so it doesn't matter as much there as long as it isn't any gaps between them and glued well
Thank you Dylan for giving that beam a second life - a resurrection of sorts. Its spirit cant say thanks, but I'm saying it in its stead.
That is great to hear 😊🙌
Great to see repairing, rather than replacing, great work
Dude, craftsmanship.... Amazing.
職人技....すごい
Lovely work, it is great to watch your craftsmanship and giving the beam new life for many years to come. 😊👍
I love this kind of restoration.
I love the contrast the new wood gives the old, this is beautiful Wabisabi
😂😂 nothing to do with restauration. should not see a difference.😅😅
Brilliant work!
Incrível parabéns pelo trabalho artístico. Grande abraço Brasil
I thoroughly enjoyed this. It’s intriguing to see the process and inspiring to see something repaired to be reused instead of discarded.
Happy to hear that 😊
素晴らしいなぁ。ウチの実家も、こんな風に補修できれば、まだまだ住めたかもしれない。
以前から古くなった木造建築の解体修理でどうやって柱などを修復するんだろうと思っていたので、この動画で謎が解けました。それにしても根気と手間のいる大変な作業ですねぇ。ありがとうございます。
thank you for sharing
Very skilled! Thank you for the videos.
Happy to hear that 😊🙌
Jobs like this one are alway a conundrum for me, so many things to take into consideration. At what point is restoration and time spent a waste, esthetic value has to be considered of course. Either way, beautiful workmanship.
Nice work 😀👍
Muito bom!
You have a lot of skill mate, that is quality work 👍
Excellent repair job!👍
Cheers! 🙌
Beautiful work
Thanks!
Very nice! Thumbs up and thanks for sharing.
Happy to hear that. Cheers! 😊🙌
Very nice work.
Thanks for sharing!
Cheers! 🙌
That’s cool you did this as well. I do the same thing but on wooden boats.
Ahh, great to hear you do it on wooden boats too! 🙌
Should be good for another 100+ years!
Thank you, Dylan.
Its awesome bro!! I love your work!! Greetings from Mexico!!
Thank you 😊
Really beautiful work 😆
Thanks 😊
Great skill!! Beautiful outcome! I had wondered if you ever used glue. Nice!
Cheers!
Nice work as always 😁
Thank you 😊🙌
Nicely done.
Thanks
I worked under a carpenter before.
For small area we simply put CA glue with wood powders, larger area we'd use tinted grain filler. Not saying the method in the video is bad or something, but what we did here is a lot faster considering we got probably tons of cases each day.
Another one, nice! :D
Cheers! 😊🙌
Wait Papa Flammy wtf😮😮
Brilliant works!
Qusestion: Is it nesassary to use the same kind of timber for repairing?
Do glue work better than nail for wood?
Well done ! are you going to stain to match ?
Proof you don't have to always replace with new
Correct, unless you have no skills, but that's a whole different game, haha
This piece is exposed to the sun, snow, and rain? What sort of glue did you use?
What type of wood glue u r using?
How tedious were you in matching up the wood? Was it the identical wood you were replacing? Was it old and/or seasoned for years?? So nice to watch you work, too, of course! Your competency appears so effortless! But don’t we know better!! and I am personally a strong proponent of “older is better“. Thank you thank you!
For these I just gathered a bunch of scrap/cutoffs of the same wood (Matsu - Pine). Most of the material had been sitting in the workshop for a long time (10+years I think). If I had several options on the piece to use, I chose the one with the closest grain but using whatever left over suitable material was more of a priority this time. It’s up in the beams and will likely be lightly painted over so people won’t be able to see it up close anyways.
@@dylaniwakuni Do you need to take into account the grain direction when using the cutoffs in such situations?
I hope you put some wood preservative on it so you don't see it again in 20 years.
Are you going to put it back or??
Hi Dylan, what is the “life expectancy” of the beam and repair now? What about the structural integrity of the beam now? Is there a concern about that? I’m no engineer or building expert, so I ask out of genuine interest. In watching your videos (and others) I find I’m getting a lot of inspiration, and feel I’m learning a few things too. I can’t wait to start practicing and giving things a go for myself. 👍
Happy to hear you’ve been getting inspiration from my videos. It’s difficult to gauge a “life expectancy” but if taken care of and the ideal conditions are maintained (no rot, etc) I would say it can last another century. As for the structural integrity, obviously it won’t be as strong as new but the material was originally bigger than necessary. Also the repairs are all on the surface and the damage wasn’t deep so it shouldn’t be a concern.
@@dylaniwakuni I AM an engineer, and I have to say, while you may have
restored the beam cosmetically, it is now MUCH weaker than it was
originally. It suffered from Insect damage and apparently dry rot. In
the United States, when this type of damage is discovered, the affected
wood must be removed and replaced.
Japan is a land of earthquakes. A load bearing beam that is compromised
by insect and dry rot damage is a tragedy waiting to happen.
It almost entirely depends on where the loads are sitting on that beam, and how the forces will act - and of course how strong those forces will be. In some areas it’s totally fine to repair it like that, in other areas it might not be. Of course you want to be sure that you remove all the damage, and you want to eliminate the cause of it, so it doesn’t just happen again. You’d also want to be sure that any further damage can be spotted in time.
The beam was repaired to remove some rot and make sure it fits again - not to strengthen it. Like Dylan says, it was more than strong enough before and it’s strong enough now.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷
Just like new
俺もあっちこっち傷んできたから補修した方がいいな。
Great job! Also does this count as LVL? 😂
Lol 🤣
🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️
Great! Is it insect damage?
Yes it was insect damage from I believe long ago
👏👏👏
Why not use a structural epoxy to do a structural repair? PVA is not a structural glue. This repair is simply a cosmetic repair.
