[Drawing lines with a long sword] Skilled craftsmen who make Go and Shogi boards

[@karlpron]

Another great craftsman. I love his attitude towards the ever changing world: traditions are most important but we must adapt to the flowing world. Wax has changed? Change techniques, but do not change the spirit. I also love how he speaks of passing down the skills and techniques. I am always worried that such wonderful skills are going to disappear in future. Thank you for making this video.

Thank you for watching and for your nice comments. We created this video with the same idea as you. Thanks to people like you, I have the energy to create videos.

確かに安い道具でも将棋は出来るのですが、将棋好きの方には一度でも良い盤と駒を使っていただきたい 私も高級な駒＆盤を使わせていただいた事があるのですが、駒が盤に吸い付く様な感覚とその時の澄んだ音がたまりません

Non sono un falegname e tantomeno gioco a Go, ma apprezzo il lavoro superbo ed appassionato di questi maestri giapponesi !!!

I respect them too! You can see the years of effort! Thank you for watching!

綺麗な直線を引くのに太刀を使うってことろが実に日本人らしい発想だと思ったが よく考えれば、刀鍛冶が真っ直ぐな刀を作るという技術を信頼した職人の繋がりなのだと思うと感慨深い

[@kodawari.official]

コメントありがとうございます。感慨深いですし、面白い考え方だなと思いました！これからも日本の良さを発信していけたらと思います！

Меч используется не для рисования. им выдавливается небольшое углубление которое заполняется лаком, в который макают острие заранее.

書いてる人もいるけど 動画で制作されてるのは囲碁盤でなんならホームページでもこの人の作ってますよ〜って出てるの囲碁盤なんよなぁ 確かに店としてはそうだけど製作者的に見るともう1人だと思われ… 普通撮影で作るなら趣旨的に将棋盤の筈だけどそれを囲碁盤って事は管轄が違うんじゃ無いかなぁ

[@robertchristian5874]

What is the piece? And why the inverted pyramid in the bottom? Unbelievable craftsmanship!

[@kodawari.official]

It's a Go board. He makes the boards used when playing Go. The purpose of the inverted pyramid is to prevent the wood from bending and to improve the sound when the pieces are hit! Thank you for your comment!

[@robertchristian5874]

Ty for the answer!

[@spottedtauren]

Nice video; I would have liked it better without background music but aside from that I wouldn’t change anything.

[@kodawari.official]

[@sethwarner2540]

I still don't know what a go board is; what is this video showing as a product>?

[@kodawari.official]

A Go board is a board used in the game of Go, which is popular mainly in Asia. We introduced the process of making it!

[@AFpaleoCon]

Cool, what is it?

[@kodawari.official]

[@RossNanfito]

Does anyone know what kind of wood it is?

[@kodawari.official]

It is a tree called Kaya. The scientific name is Torreya nucifera.

[@RossNanfito]

@@kodawari.official Does that tree only grow in Japan? Is the wood from it milled and exported? I live in USA. I've never seen it here.

[@rubbercrutch1]

Kaya is Japanese yew. Wood Database says that we have a pacific yew over here but it appears to be a little darker than its neighbor in Japan. It’s a very dense softwood.

[@RossNanfito]

@@rubbercrutch1 Thanks very much. I did a quick search and only found turning blanks sizes. I imagine I can find more in the Pac Northwest. I live in CA so I can drive to get it. Thanks for the info!!

@@RossNanfito no joke, if you can source a slab, I would be interested in ordering one!

Why do you have to use 3 foot thick chunk of timber ? waste of good lumber for the sake of tradition ? this is now a scarce resource for a board game ?

I don't want to looks like stupid, but why is he using a sword just to draw a line when he uses a machine every step of the way?

[@Saki630]

This is listed $3500usd online. A used one that looks to be 20+ years old similar with the pyramid center is $275 on Ebay. How can this business sell enough of these to pay the bills? Does Japan not charge them lots of taxes or insurances and is the cost of living lower than we think?

[@kodawari.official]

Many products are sold in Asia, where demand is high. We have not only high-priced items, but also low-priced items. You can earn a living by doing work such as repairing Go and Shogi boards.

What’s the purpose of the “bellybutton”, at the underside of the board?

[@kodawari.official]

By making a ``belly button'', you can prevent the tree from bending! Also, the sound when you place the pieces will be better!

[@romanb.6528]

Please explain why so much wood should be wasted on a game board? I respect the work of the craftsman, but this piece of wood could make four (if not more) thin game boards and they would be no worse (or maybe even better, because then they could be taken with you).

最近は、街角で囲碁将棋をやる人が減りましたね。6寸盤を見る機会も減り、ネットでの対局に変わってきたような気がします。 でも、このような文化が消えないよう、良い形で残して頂けたらと思います。

[@kodawari.official]

私たちもそのように感じています。素晴らしい文化、技術が後世に残っていくことを願っています。
