A great technique for assembling pieces of wood without nails! The process of Japanese Kumiko work!

[@notan2007]

高度な技術というのは世の中に溢れていますが、素人にはどれだけその技術がすごいのかは分からないし、完成されたものを見てもそういうものだとしか認識できません。しかし完成までの行程という貴重なものを見させていただいたおかげで、今まで完成品の美しさしか見る目がなかった私に新しい楽しみ方を与えてもらったような気がします。

[@geekay101]

Yes, though the pieces are processed by very advanced precision machinery. Nothing takes away the beauty of the finished piece, despite that.

[@denisemurray412]

So beautifully said. I agree with all that you have said. Craftsmanship is, sadly, a dying art. I'm glad there are videos that showcase these artisans and their wonderful life's work.

[@alexanderbreeding1830]

@@billrich9722 It's called art and precision and craftsmanship and exquisite beauty. If you can't appreciate the insane talent to make something like that - which will last pretty much forever judging by the architecture throughout the country built over 2000 years ago that still requires traditional artisans to take down today - then you should at least try to muster the respect to appreciate the knowledge required to create this and that someone is still practicing it today, when there are machines that can make most anything but someone is still capable, and willing, to ensure this does not pass from human existence.

Not sure what you mean by modern age. Did you not see all the industrial quality heavy machinery that was used to prepare all the pieces prior to the fine hand assembly work? Imagine how much harder and more expensive this would be if all those early steps were done by hand instead of with 'modern' machinery!

[@TikiHi77]

My thoughts exactly!

[@wad-n4b]

Гораздо меньше, чем Вам кажется. Это традиционная культура. Раньше это стоило гораздо дешевле, чем сейчас. Просто в моем распоряжении есть вещи более чем сто-летней давности. Современный человек не додумается - КАК это было сделано очень простыми ручными инструментами. И - быстро. Я знаю историю этих предметов, они достались мне по наследству от бабушки. Much less than you think. This is a traditional culture. It used to cost much less than it does now. It’s just that I have things at my disposal that are more than a hundred years old. Modern man will not figure out HOW it was done with very simple hand tools. And fast. I know the history of these items; I inherited them from my grandmother.

[@samyagdrsti]

@@wad-n4b Some years ago, I watched a video of a family creating kumiko items with traditional tools. They're so simple, almost obvious yet very creative at the same time. The ingenuity of humans in designing tools and methods to produce unexpected things never ceases to amaze me.
