Simple (but not really) Stand from reclaimed wood

I wanted a little stand for my room so decided to bring back some wood from the worksite and make this over the weekend. A quick fun project experimenting with joineries and working with what I had.

I love the way you make your videos. The process, beautiful elevation of material, tools, crisp sound. No talking. Things speaking for themselves.

[@dylaniwakuni]

Thank you 😊

[@andersonlong7709]

Thank you again for the high integrity and inspiration of your work and honoring all the carpenters who have gone before you.

[@grenphelps7455]

Ur videos take the stress out of my life, great craftsmanship, which is very rare these days, many thanks.

[@dylaniwakuni]

That's great to hear 😊

[@JedediahSmith342]

Very impressed by your traditional tategu-shi skills. Thank you for showing and sharing the use of traditional Japanese woodworking tools. Their tradition spirit and use. ⛩️🎏🙏🏽

[@calhoun315]

I really enjoyed hearing your chisels cut! A sharp chisel makes such a pleasant sound.

[@JohnColgan.]

All that errort, skill & detail in those chisel cuts, and they won't be seen! At least we saw the build & can appreciate what went into this not so simple stand!

[@geneparcellano]

It's much nicer watching this on KZbin than Instagram. Glad you posted the full vid on here. Thanks!

[@cortando_lenha]

Awesome! The great spirit of the woodworking! Thanks man! People like you give us the motivation to continue walking in the ways of traditions!

[@silentwisdom7025]

I love that you use hand tools, you really know your stuff. Beautiful job, please keep them coming, subbed from today on.

[@dylaniwakuni]

Cheers!

[@myxangolife]

Beautiful work. I’m just beginning at age 49 and absolutely love to watch such satisfying work.

[@simonabbott]

Beautiful. A saw, a couple of planes and chisels, a pencil, and a square. Not even a vice! Woodwork is so "simple (but not really)"!

[@FilmerVicz]

Man your work is beautiful. The precision is so incredible and i also appreciate the aesthetic beauty of it being such a simple end product. that simplicity is just elegance (achieved from reclaimed wood no less!). The window in your room too, amazing!! As an aspiring architect, joinings like these are what inspire me, and I wish to one day meet and work with you (and others like you) to produce incredible, timeless forms!! Even this video is just so informative and useful, thank you!!

[@FilmerVicz]

the tools too, god the authenticity of it all brings me so much joy!!!

[@dylaniwakuni]

Thank you for your kind words 😊

[@manofbeard]

As a carpenter of some thirty plus years. I do enjoy seeing other craftsmen at work. Super job 👍

[@dylaniwakuni]

That's great to hear 😊 Thanks!

[@LegoMan-cz4mn]

The house that fell down is now basically a big pile of solid gold! Old wood is simply beautifull, please don't let the rest go to waste! You did a really good job working with that softwood! Not an easy task to chisel all of that end grain so cleanly. End the end result is super nice as well, very elegant and nice proportions

[@troystaten5633]

Nicely done, thanks for showing us.

[@derrick1125]

That is a very good and simple idea. To take something from one life and give it a second. Thanks for sharing this video.

[@dylaniwakuni]

That's great to hear! Cheers! 😊🙌

[@memofrf]

The grain of the wood alone.... Thank you.

[@sherb118]

We need these all at normal speed! Awesome vids!

[@Donald_Ray]

My grandaddy brought one of those saws home w/him from Japan many yrs (at least 80 yrs old) ago, &used it until the day he died!! I’ve used it several times to cut out door jams &stuff...It’s a great tool!!

[@slvr1.618]

Love the channel and the high skill level in what you do,please give us a video on some of your chisels,hammers and saw's,all very interesting to me.

[@DorianBracht]

Nice one man! Good to hear you also mumble your measurements under your breath :D

[@dylaniwakuni]

Thanks Dorian! Some habits are just so unconscious! 🤣

[@diegoclara108]

@@dylaniwakuni Hello, can you tell me where did you buy your chisels? thanks

[@youtukang]

😊😊

[@choaniki7645]

Is there any other way for one to mentally lock in the measurements? I think not...

[@mikeferguson7520]

Your skill is extraordanary..well done

[@ldkmelon]

I was going to use a simplified castle joint to make a small table but now I think I will use this instead. beautiful joint perfect for small furniture

[@cfd1616]

Excellent workmanship!

Amazing skill just subbed im going to watch all your videos

[@Ts-T]

Really enjoying your videos, you should do a video series on how to properly sharpen a chisel.

[@woodworkingindonesia8489]

Awesome vids

[@dallasbraithwaite3625]

Made a footstool for my mother using 14 degree thru tennons. Next time I’ll try this concealed dovetail.

[@gaslitworldf.melissab2897]

I can't imagine the honor of being trained by a Japanese craftsmen. It's so much more than a discipline, but a philosophy.

[@HansPeterSloot]

Indeed simple but not really. I like it very much. It would be really instructive when you could make a video on how you did the scribing. Would that be possible?

[@youtukang]

Nice 👍👍

[@jnnyhomicide]

Simple does not necessarily mean easy. Wonderful video.

[@dylaniwakuni]

Cheers! 😊🙌

[@passg1920]

Beautiful work! your skills and aesthetics are mesmerizing. Can you tell me please what kind of nomi are you using @ 10:44 ? Thanks!

[@27Navidad]

Need to go to Japan for some lessons

[@Hutch5321]

Thank you for the new video, Dylan. Always impressive! Any idea what kind of wood that is? Looks like good quality, even from the first time it was used.

[@dylaniwakuni]

Thanks! I'm quite sure the wood is Matsu (Japanese pine).

[@tinderbox218]

Beautiful and simple, but bugs me how the most complicated part of it isn't even visible in the finished piece. 🤷‍♂️😄

[@dylaniwakuni]

Haha, thanks! I wanted a simple look but doing it with this joinery was the only way I could think of to achieve the look

[@santiagogonzalez5752]

excellent work How can I get the exact measurements? it would be great thanks

[@NotQuiteFirst]

What, no blue epoxy river!?

[@silentwisdom7025]

Yuck I personally despise that trendy crap. Woodworking for me is like church, not meant to display man's domination of chemicals. Just my opinion.

[@jamesmoe9188]

A lovely reclaimed wood project! Do you find that that type of joint to be easier to make than others, or is it about the same?

[@dylaniwakuni]

Thanks! Well it depends on what kind of joinery. Definitely more complicated than a mortise and tenon joint, but I wanted a particular design so had to use dovetails

[@mathewmcloughlin8312]

Are you soaking the wood in something before you start pairing?

[@michaelpeterson4418]

Your skill and attention to detail is both beautiful and inspiring. When you are putting the final touches on the end grain of your joinery, do you put anything on the wood before you cut it with the chisel? It looks like oil, but I've never heard of that technique before.

[@alexgunner1882]

Water most likely.

[@ivanwalker3391]

Absolutely brilliant video but, you really need to find a better location for your microphone.

[@spookytook]

Where can I learn japanese woodworking

[@ricos1497]

Really nice. When you're marking out the wood, do you measure from the centre? Like timber framing. Also, what do the little X marks you draw represent? Love your marking squares, I might have to get some of those!

[@dylaniwakuni]

It depends on the material and part. For this one, the top board I measured from the centre. But for the legs, I measured from the edge. X is just my way to indicate a cut line (saw completely through).

[@ricos1497]

@@dylaniwakuni makes sense, thanks! Awesome videos sir.

[@kincaid9134]

can anyone tell me what kind of wood that is?

[@tomppeli.]

Is this the left-over wood from moving the 100 year-old building?

[@melatomic]

Do you know what variety of timber this is. I’m from Australia and am not familiar with Japanese species.

[@wallacemurray134]

Just wondering why you don't bother with some simple clamps to keep the piece from moving? Do clamps just slow you down?

[@rurbanxp5425]

He is showing the ways to work in a minimal manner as possible, otherwise all these can be finished quick

[@quintusthefifth2232]

Japanese people: talented, skillful craftsmanship on every piece, even the smallest ones American people: **the fastest nail gun in the west**

[@shr6482]

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but did you use wood blocks to sand without using sandpaper? EDIT: Or is the wood block a specific type of wood?

[@quinn860]

I think your referring to the wooden planes he is using, there is a plane blade in the block of he is using to smoothen the joints, i may be wrong as i am a complete amateur but hope this helps👍👍

[@SalRez]

Excuse me sir, did you sell your soul to the devil in return for these skills? Just kidding. I adore japanese carpentry. And your skills are out of this world. I mean, you have cnc precision with handtools. For anyone reading this comment, let that sink in.

[@arcticredpanda4598]

Will you ever use a multi-tool?

[@YouzACoopa]

it looks like you do not use glue. is there a philosophy to use it or not?

[@mockatu]

Did you buy or make the Japanese shoulder plane?

[@dylaniwakuni]

I bought these

[@antongoeser9769]

What kind of Nomi are you using there? Are they HSS?

[@dylaniwakuni]

These are just standard Nomi. Not really sure who it's made by
