In my opinion, Japanese carpenters are the BEST carpenters in the world! Very impressive.

I never thought a woodworking video would bring a tear to my eye. That was such an awesome piece of history to watch. Your history being made while sharing it with the rest of us. Thank you for making this video and inspiring me, not just in woodworking but in life, especially as a father and grandfather. A great reminder that someday, one of my kids or even their kids may find something I made with my hands and it spark a fond memory. This is what its all about right here in this video. Thank you again sir.

Im retired and free help if you want it. Been on a similar journey renovating a home from 1800s i thought i would not finish. Just let me know brother. Your no burden your a blessing to those that wanna help.

Trust in Jesus my friend the end is near. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. He will return and he will save his followers and unleash his wrath on this earth.

You certainly made a beautiful table. The end of the video made it even more fun watching when the family was enjoying a meal together. A nice bit of humor when one the kids decided to stand up in the gap between the boards.

Damn easy does it 😉👍

TIL there's a SPEAR PLANE?!

Bonitos los chinitos sentados en la base del banco, se ve que quieren al papá o abuelo ,el banco quedó espectacular ,lo que más me gustó fueron las prensas de doble tornillo ,son muy buenas y no se desajustan nada

Finally had a break from life to catch up on your videos. Keep it up Jesse!

Nice video! Maybe food for though is that in japan white is associated with death and not used in a gate, not any that I have seen anyway.

Japanese believe in leaving one imperfection in their work I have heard they see beauty in it.

Arrogant are we?

Sit back and enjoy the ride.... Been there🏠🛠 Keep it up

Says 3 1/2 LBs

Do you have the plans for these doors?

I just ordered my first Japanese hand plane. It says the blade is made with aogami blue paper steel. Is this a good steel to use on hardwoods, and should i put a micro bevel the blade?

Hi Jesse, I’m planning to build a Japanese style woodshed and a Koshikake next week in my remodeled Zen / bonsai garden. I’ve been unsuccessful figuring out how they designed a few joints that you have used on this privacy fence build. Can you share how the top and bottom fence rails and roof beam are jointed to the middle post ? I don’t see a peg indicating a mortise and tenon joint. I really admire your skill with the masonry drill and diamond toothed saw blade too ! Cheers, Dave

Hi, I have enjoyed watching your videos and was wondering if you have any plans for japanese style deck railing that would be compliant with most local building codes in New York. Thanks.

Man I'm just jealous of your access to lumber out on the West Cost. Just wow.

Great video! Wish there was a little more focus on that bottom tenon joinery. Im a noob, but tried to recreate it with some scrap, and the angle of the mortise messed me up! 😆

Thanks for the great video. How has this held up over the years? I had a cedar tub when I lived in New England and it had a vinyl liner. I found this to be great in many respects even though difficult to install. How has it been in terms of leaking, aging, standing up to elements, etc?

Family!!! Great video.

What font is that? Looks great!

LIVING THE LIFE FANTASTIC effort pays off

Any updates ?it's been 7 years

It's so beautiful, I would put it in a glass case never to be touched by hands again.....EVER! LOL

I think the gate looks awesome

Can you share the technical drawings?

niubility🐮

Dude you need one of those stump vises so your blade is stable

Amazing ! What types of woods did you use ?

Good job, overkill with that insulation i think, sauna need to breath, otherwise mold can be an issue.

This brought tears to my eyes idk why thou

What did you do for the floor and drainage ?

At 12:15: Samurai reflexes should be able to block all the flying disc fragments, so no need for a guard. Just remember your Safety Squint

you make all my bad decisions feel better

So, after 4 years, have your chest end pieces split apart, with those firmly-glued, pinned, and tenoned joints between the cross-grain end panels and the long-grain handles?

Try out using wood burl in the future. The grain comes out wonderful, and it lasts far longer in terms of use. The twisted grain of a wood burl allows for the heating and cooling with a rarer chance of cracking over time.

That tape measure move at the end was solid...lol. I'll be using that on my next project for sure.

I "love" how this dude wears plenty of protection, but never for his eyes

Wonderful work but why did you leave a hole in the middle of the table? Lol I can see that becoming an issue in the future. I think it'd be more functional with epoxy filled in.

Put that opening shot in the dictionary under “glassy smooth”!! Rock hard!!!! Love the content!

Marabilloso

Man i love your vids. I hope you can do another collab w Liam Hoffman

Simply too good 👍

‘Recreational shooting’ ? Of what? If it’s animals, then I am unsubscribing. Killing things for fun is wrong.

Now in 2024, the brand is 4 microns thick.

Looks nice keep doing cool stuff.

@9:30 ... get that child some hearing protection and eye protection!!
