Amazing Young Hakone Marquetry Craftsman: Kojima Yuhei - Extremely Satisfied For Woodworking

Hello everyone,
When I was a kid, my dad has told me about the reduction of manpower of traditional trades due to the industrialization and modernization of Japanese society, traditional products started to become out-dated and forgotten.
#japanesewoodworking #HakoneMarquetry #woodworkingsatisfied
However, they’re still young people who spend all of their careers to carry on the tradition. We'd like to honor them as much as we can. So I decided to create a series of video shows about them and their work from the footage available from my friends and myself.
Today, This video will be more attractive because I have edited the script, rewrote the content, new voices were recorded, new effects work, new music, new footage added and a new creation is created as follows: "Amazing Young Hakone Marquetry Craftsman: Kojima Yuhei - Extremely Satisfied For Woodworking"
This time our main character is a Young Hakone Marquetry Craftsman: Kojima Yuhei
In the previous video, we have seen how Hakone Yosegi-zaiku is made from the traditional craftsmanship of the master craftsmen.
In this video, let's find out how young people in Japan inherit and promote it.

I find it so reassuring that a young man is continuing this craftsmanship tradition, there are so many being lost due to disinterest and profit minded youth. Please stay with this and continue this wonderful artwork.

[@WoodworkingEnthusiasts]

well said! I appreciate that!

[@gregoryraines9318]

Wow, I really love the craftsmanship I have seen out of almost any and all of the Japanese people. They are amazing!

[@WoodworkingEnthusiasts]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@MrCasutherland]

What a pleasure to watch, a handsome young man applying himself to quality workmanship.

[@kjamison5951]

What an absolute delight to watch this beautiful craft being passed to younger people who have a passion for it!

[@eh5526]

MatchstalkMan Kinda gives you hope that these things will continue for the right reasons

[@Doombotdude2]

Whenever I think that I will just put one of these on while I work on other things, I end up just sitting here watching, totally mesmerized. And I regret nothing!

[@musamor75]

Sheer Beauty. Thank you so much for sharing this.

[@musawergulzar]

this is beautiful work, . . . detail and perfection "god level"

[@palucav1]

The Japanese and Swiss are simply awesome when it comes to precision! Bravo! As an Albanian who was born in Switzerland, I am fascinated by the ability of the Swiss and the Japanese are also efficient and hardworking. 🇯🇵🎌🇨🇭🇨🇭❤️

[@WoodworkingEnthusiasts]

Thank you very much!

Having tried to do a very simple veneer project last week and failed rather miserably, these guys have my greatest respect!

[@kanishkamadhuranga2904]

Its really amazing! Im in love with these techniques and how you guys give your calm mind to get the best results off the output♥️

[@toolsconsumables7055]

Dear Sir, It's an absolute pleasure to watch craftsmen at work especially when they keep an age old tradition alive. I can see & understand why this young apprentice wants to devote his life to this craft; it's not only fascinating but addictive I would hazard to guess. Wonderful yet again. Kind regards.

[@toolsconsumables7055]

Dear Sir, Thank you very much for our hearted response; it's always with great delight to witness something done with such finesse when the order of the day is usually rather crude by comparison. Kind regards.

Beautiful work... I love the machines he's using, especially that slicing machine. Never seen anything like that before. I know from my own marquetry workshop that it takes many years to work out the techniques that will give you that level of perfection. The key is good planning and cut out the guesswork. The quality is second to none...

Wow! And I really thought the designs were printed. That's an amazing box to put my fighting spiders in it. It would be nice to wrap Christmas gifts using these boxes too and these are delicately-made crafts to throw away. So I think these would stay displayed somewhere in the house like branded shopping bags.

[@WoodworkingEnthusiasts]

That would be cool!

Having had a significant tablesaw accident with the fingers of my left hand last year, I had a mild heart attack at 3:30. Lordy - it's only a matter of time (I have *many* years of experience and am very careful but it only took a lapse of care of about 0.5 of a second...). Stay safe folks - please don't be doing this! Cheers from Sydney - Dave

[@uweziegenhagen1038]

I totally agree!

[@miedkumpaw90]

Your story same as me..in the blink of an eye i lost 2 finger on my left hand bcoz of little mistake..even an experienced worker sometimes cannot avoid it..

[@deldridg]

@@miedkumpaw90 I'm sorry to hear that. It's a traumatic experience isn't it? While I didn't lose any fingers, I almost did and after 3 hours of surgery, 100 stitches and 6 months of serious rehab, I have limited function in some of my fingers and life is not quite the same. I am also a serious semi-professional pianist - it's a long journey back (almost there). Watching this young guy seriously upset me as no doubt it did you too. Take care my friend and cheers - Dave

[@andrewgarratt5191]

Lawrence Leith You may wanna seek inspiration from pretty much any country other than japan then... Unless “bankruptcy” sounds fun.

[@Scy]

Don't listen to this old wrinkle, japanese woodworking is top notch. If you want some proper inspiration, look at Dorian Bracht's channel. "Joint Venture"-series. Japanese joinery, no nails, no glue.
