      Should really stop dogging on American construction. It works. And it is good depending on the builder. Not like all the homes fell down during large earthquakes. American construction is great and fulfills a different overall purpose. You can get a nicely built home like this in the US but it'll cost you. But in Japan it really costs you. The system is just different there than here. Also most don't live in homes in Japan....think about that.

      ​@e4d578 be sure to keep in mind the general mindset of American construction. Back when we did timber framing stuff lasted through tornadoes. Now we make stuff out of cheap materials and pocket the profit and it crumbles in adverse weather. Traditional joinery can be done without the addition of any nails or screws.

    Not a carpenter never will be anything more than a weekend hobbyist at the best but I certainly enjoy the fine art and professionalism of Japanese carpentry you are showing. Please continue what must be a lot of extra work for you and the team you are working with.
    Further I deeply appreciate the inclusion of the various japanese terms used along with some of that content along with its 日本語文体. First lived in Japan back in the 70's and the house next to my place was under construction at the time so hearing the voices and seeing their cohesive team work your crew bring back some beautiful memories. 🙏🙏🙏

    While watching this construction, I learned a lot about the Ancient Japanese techniques in carpentry and still perfecting it to the level. Dovetail techniques, Wedge Mortise & Tenon, Through Mortise Tenon, twin Mortise & Tenon, Loose Wedge, Butt joint, and many more. No nails involve in any link or joint of the wood. Ancient Japanese Jointry in woodworking is meticulously observed and learned by most Japanese and passed the techniques to the young generation. Salute to the Japanese people and to the Ancient strategies that many countries are also learning from and adopting.

    Awesome work and awesome video. You’ve got another subscriber from Tennessee.
    I have always been interested in Japan and it’s culture and oddly enough, I took two years of Japanese language in high school. I never became proficient but I did learn a lot.
    About 8 years ago I started working in a custom cabinet/woodworking shop in Nashville and I love every aspect of woodworking. I’m not doing it as a job right now but I still have the passion.
    About a month ago I decided to start learning Japanese again. I’ve got the hirigana and katakana memorized again and I’m about to start with the Kanji.
    I’ve dreamed about a trip to Japan for a long time and I hope to make it a reality. Been watching your vids and I can’t wait to start practicing some of these joints. But first I want to get a good set of Japanese chisels. Your video of the tool shop was a great lesson and I loved the visit to the blacksmith. If I make a trip over there, I won’t be too interested in the bright lights. I want to talk to the loggers, sawyers, and builders.
    Thanks for the videos and the insight into a very unique trade in a very unique culture.

In talking with him apparently that kind of thing happens a lot. Especially if you have some skills of some kind, might be an avenue to make it happen.

      It's not overly complicated. Japan consistently experiences intense earthquakes that make a specific type of building necessary in order to withstand earthquake events. For example, if you built a home out of bricks the entire thing would come crashing down on you.
      The interlocking joints create strength yet flexibility in the frame of the home, allowing for some movement and adaptation to earthquakes, yet still helping ensure the house continues to stand, after the earthquake is over.

      It is hard to say if it is possible for a foreigner to work in Japan doing work like this. I consider myself fortunate to have been given the opportunity to do this type of work. The lack of English here has placed a massive road block between Japan and international work exchange.
      I can't give any advice on what to do or how to apply as I received help from friends in Japan to get this job even though my language ability is low. As most foreigners in Japan, they come here teaching English only to change to other jobs after a few years of constant applying to other work. I came to Japan teaching English and found a way to this type of work over the course of 3 years.

    The intricate locking of the pieces doesn't belong with such material. Look how much labor is needed for fine tuning.
    There should be modern composite material pieces that are machine made to exact spec for ease of installation.
    Even including wood chips (like osb has) for those that want the wood feel to the pillars.

    Great video, and thanks for the subs, but why is the sound panned/weighted to the left so much?

      Sorry. Something happen to the audio settings on the camera. Unfortunately we have a lot of footage that was filmed this way. Thank you for suffering through the video.

    Are the jikatabi just tradition or is there a reason they are (mostly) worn by the crew?

    • @Boinciel

      They're very flexible, lightly constructed, and give good grip - they're pretty much what you want to be wearing when you need to be climbing up on wooden beams. I don't have ones with the hardened toes myself, but the ones I do have are quite similar to those "natural running" shoes that were popular a while back. If I had to be climbing a tree, I'd much rather be wearing a pair of jikatabi than a pair of hard-soled work boots.

    As a Norwegian, it is very strange to see so many people working at the same time. On a similar job in Norway, there would have been perhaps 3 people who built the house. After all, Japan has a large population, and the reason why it is like that.
