Japanese Joinery - 隅留めほぞ差しSumidome Hozo Sashi

Decided to try making this joinery called Sumidome Hozo Sashi.
This is my first time making it and this video or the processes shown are not meant to be a how to.
This is a corner joint used in the floor sills of houses.
The actual one would have wedges on the tenon and a post coming directly above it. When fully assembled, only the outside miters will remain visible, hiding most of the joint.
I regularly post photos, videos and tips on Instagram:

There’s nothing quite so satisfying as a properly sharpened chisel being pushed through wood.

[@carlmason736]

Couldn't agree more

[@JohnColgan.]

Apparently effortlessly too!! Phenomenal to shave a whole internal face in 1 piece

[@AOMartialArts]

Hi. Let me introduce you to my good friend: Lathe.

[@himynameisdavenicetomeetyou]

Also, the way he expertly uses the natural properties of the wood when utilizing the grain direction to get perfectly clean results. Just beautiful to watch

[@trcmf]

I would love to see you marking the lines in your videos. It’s obviously extremely important and would be a great teaching tool to all of us learn the how and why about marking.

[@outdoorkohai3249]

what Tim said!

[@gedog77]

Also what time said.

[@BigButtocks967]

What time?

[@dplj4428]

@@BigButtocks967 right off at beginning and through out. Where he’s removing wood, we’ll see a line dashed inside the waste area. Some people shade off whole waste area.

[@deanaoxo]

Every now and then, i run across a video where i simply can't believe how much knowledge is passed to me. Thank you for sharing. Subscribed.

[@dylaniwakuni]

I'm happy to hear that. Cheers! 😊

[@jonathanmangold5024]

and i like the idea of clamping another piece of wood above the work to keep the chisel on true 90 degrees to the work. I'm going to start doing that.

[@dylaniwakuni]

That's great to hear 😊 Cheers!

[@lourias]

Yes, I saw that is another of his videos! The first clamp in the other video was during rough gouging. I really was impressed with the clamp on a block to guide his chisel. What awesome skills to have! What an awesome person to share his/her knowledge! ... years ago when YT was created, I saw no value in the platform. Now, I look up stuff and learn more quickly than web surfing, or even using the old card catalogs of the analog book system! LOL 😆 At least one can teach this old dog a new trick.

[@Julmaa87]

I assume you mean 180 degrees?

[@charlesdbruce]

I bet this guy shaves in the morning with his chisels rather than a shaving razor... Those things are sharp!

[@youtukang]

☺☺🤝

[@andersonlong7709]

Extraordinary. Thank you for doing “ a good job” and keeping the supreme art of Japanese joinery alive.

[@barkebaat]

3:48 - Clever technique -- I'll start doing it that way from now :-) Thanks from a Norwegian woodworker ! Voted & subbed

[@dylaniwakuni]

Happy to hear that! Cheers! 🙌

[@cheek1m0nkey]

The sound of hand cut wood is oddly comforting

[@lynxg4641]

That joint is INSANE! It truly is amazing and baffles me how people come up with these super complex joints that only need 1 wedge to be super strong. Precision and lots of patience are the key here and you seem to have them in an over abundance, really well done.

[@pimpownzu]

With so many useless videos out on KZbin, it makes you appreciate the wealth of knowledge and technique in this video. Thanks for sharing and reminding me that I have dull chisels! LoL

[@dylaniwakuni]

Happy to hear that! Cheers! 😊

[@DownhillAllTheWay]

Seeing the care, precision, patience, time and skill that goes into making a joint like this gives me a renewed appreciation for what can be achieved with duck tape!

[@PatNetherlander]

When I saw those chisels and I heard that sound I knew: this is gonna be GOOD! And it was even better than good, it was amazing!

[@dylaniwakuni]

Happy to hear that! 😊🙌

[@JasonQuackenbushonGoogle]

wood love to see a video showing how you do the layout of complex joints like this in detail.

[@Kobe29261]

My thoughts exactly, when I saw the marking lines I knew this was the work of a master -even they had artistry written all over them!

[@irongoatrocky2343]

Lets use an idea called the "6 P's" Proper Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance Think 2x cut once!

[@e.p.4767]

Aka : A sculptor's wet dream. Before man made all these milling machines ... Someone, give this guy a masters degree in fine arts.

[@mpethybridge]

I just learned more about using a chisel than I had learned in my previous 15 years of hand tool woodworking. Amazing! Thank you, sir.

[@RichardDenRooyen1973]

so impressed by the sharpness of that chisel 😮😮

[@russowings5351]

INCREDIBLE CRAFTSMANSHIP! SO METICULOUS! Japanese craftsmen are the BEST!

[@deborahduthie4519]

These were the skills honed while Japan was self isolated from the rest of the world. Craftsman excellence was being achieved in Japan. Look at these beautiful skills. Stunning workmanship by any standards unsurpassed by tradesman throughout the world.

[@dplj4428]

I wonder if same similar used in China or Korea? There’s been hundreds of years influences back and forth the people’s in these geographical areas.

[@rugleberg]

Never learnt so much from a video where so little is said! Exceptional work, you've gained a fan!

[@dylaniwakuni]

Happy to hear that! Thanks! 😊🙌

[@MrSteamDragon]

Putting aside for a moment the skill level required to execute such a joint, consider the genius who conceived these joints in the first place.

[@lintelle2382]

love the sound of a really sharp chisel!

[@gedog77]

Sometimes I come back and watch this like meditation, it's therapeutic.

[@markjulie2072]

What an absolute joy to watch such a craftsman. Thankyou for posting :o)

[@KnotHead1008]

Beautiful joinery work.

[@nigelpeters967]

Amazing, fantastic workmanship. Really enjoyed watching that.

[@TheSamboy93]

As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement kzbin.infoUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!

[@dmann579]

Beautiful joint and such amazing craftsmanship. Thank you for sharing this, Dylan. You've inspired me to do more with my chisels!

[@pnwRC.]

Fantastic video of a complex, but very interesting joinery workings

[@glennjoachim8275]

An artist, with his tools and materials in harmony :)

[@technewsfortechnoobs]

Every time I see one of your videos, I swear I would love to apprentice under you and learn all about these types of woodworking!

[@nheinric]

Wow, the patience and precision is amazing And those chisels! Great video!

[@dylaniwakuni]

Thank you! 😊

[@JohnColgan.]

I'm struggling to find the right words for this. Insanely complex and accurate. Unbelievable how you shaved a whole internal face ...in 1 piece was so gossamer fine. I'm in total awe of your skills and of course your chisel sharpness! I just can't believe 80+ people did a thumbs down 👎 ... unless they are better than you at chisel carving, how can they judge do harshly??

[@dylaniwakuni]

Thank you 😊 Yes, I like to wet the endgrain with water when chiseling. It makes the wood softer and easier to chisel.

[@sshizas6986]

That was amazing. Excellent skills sir.

[@lenap4956]

I think I'm gonna pick wood carving as a hobby now. There's something strangely fascinating at seeing wood being sculpted

[@l8ping]

Amazing principle. So much to learn.

[@beverleyellis6358]

Beautiful to watch⭐️ thank you

[@manofbeard]

As a joiner myself I really enjoy watching another craftsman at work. You’re use of chisel’s is excellent. Keep up the good work lad 👍

[@tabinosukedoumo1088]

日本建築建具の継ぎ手仕口は 接合面が美しいだけで無く 強度も兼ね備えているように 思われます‥ このような joint を開発した 先人の発想能力は素晴らしい と感じると同時に それを寸分誤差無く再現する 職人技もまた 感銘を受けるものです‥

I also thought it was apropos that Cathedral bells would ring in the middle of his work. What he's doing is almost religious. I'm sorry that his ears have to endure road traffic :-(

Listen to the sound the chisel make as the worker cleans up the cuts. Music to the ears.

[@josuellopezferreira7112]

Isto é incrível, parabéns

[@filmmekkwal2737]

This is not some Japanese wood joining, it is the art of joining wood with a capital "A". I'm impressed!!!

[@jamesgreen4080]

I'll never open a tin of paint with a chisel again.

[@route66flyer29]

Does my heart good to see someone actually using chisels right.

That's simply Awesome...Your work is pure Art, I can't find more words, sorry for this poor comment...
