[@DigiLab360]

Anyone else in the US surprised by the incredible quality of Japanese construction lumber?

[@gardnerwriteradventurer]

At least in usa the lumber can be called lumber . U should see india

[@xpkareem]

Yes. I think you can find high quality lumber in the US but you gotta be in the know. Also he has amazing tools and amazing skills which helps make it look even better. If you gave me that same lumber it would probably end up looking like I bought it at Home Depot fire sale. ;)

[@nathanmarineau3993]

He didn't get that lumber from Home Depot...

[@forgottenman8629]

@@nathanmarineau3993 no he didn't, it came from Canada or the US West Coast, Japanese have a love affair with Doug fir vertical grain...

[@davidwarren4569]

I think the Japanese keep all their timber. No exports.

[@matthewsmyth903]

I could watch this guy work all day

[@resdin]

The amount of Experience in his work become visible in how he handles big tools. I’m a furniture maker by trade, and seeing this guy swinging around that huge circle saw is a pleasure

[@flynow5614]

I'm a low end furniture maker. All I have is a hatchet and cauk.

[@tomCANshuffle]

Was thinking the same thing, he does it with such grace.

If you retire, please don't stop making these wonderful videos.

Such straight lines there really is so much beauty hidden in simplicity

[@billsingh75]

lets give this great person one million subs. he deserves it.

[@vmoutsop]

FYI, I subscribed after the first video I watched. I didn't want to lose the chance to find you again.

[@shawaam]

It's honestly kind of insane how much work this man puts into everything. So much attention goes into every single plank of wood.

[@krenwregget7667]

that's called being a good carpenter. Building anything the right way takes time, skill and attention.

[@shawaam]

@@krenwregget7667 Oh absolutely, but it certainly is rare to see it.

Yeap, a true Daiku-san.

[@jamespyacek2691]

And he's got the coolest tools!

[@krenwregget7667]

@@jamespyacek2691 I'm very jealous of his jointer/planer and I've never seen a 'super surfacer' here in Canada, nor that saw with the dado stack for cutting rebates.

[@johnfstockland]

Never knew they made such small super surfacers, would love one in my shop

[@oktuluo]

Was that the Ryobi scraper tool?

[@michael.knight]

@@oktuluo No, it's the machine that creates shavings like a hand plane. If you google Super Surfacer you'll find the bigger version of it.

[@brisbanebiking]

yeah man where I can get one of those, seems only in Japan

[@tonybenton1552]

Absolutely excellent…not just the craft but the person

[@Danny........]

He casually put a bench outside that's at least $2000 here in the States. 😂 I love this guy. His channel is awesome.

[@dwp1970]

Elegant and beautiful design. I also enjoy the laughing at yourself for the glove choice to apply oil finish.

[@StableNomad]

That lumber! So nice! Also it's the first time I've seen a power smoother, very interesting.

Beautiful skills. Subscribed immediately!!

[@dconvention8568]

Emperor Shoyan! Today you asked for subscribers. Today I subscribed. I’m addicted to your content: your craftsmanship, professionalism and patience are rarely found qualities in the 21st century. I discovered your KZbin channel around last December while doing research on a variety of topics related to carpentry, hand tools and power tools. My objective is to build a range of simple, furniture with clean lines for home. The furniture must maximize space - nesting desks, tables and benches and discretely hide furniture when not in use during the day. Discovering your KZbin channel is dangerously intoxicating. A beginner like me can easily acquire a false sense of confidence after watching you. You make things look so effortless; and that’s the danger. The most talented people, regardless of profession, make the difficult look easy. Think I’ve watched virtually all of your English channel content. Can’t wait for your next video, Emperor, Shoyan! All the best from beautiful Vancouver, Canada!

Beautiful work. What a legend!

[@innpressTV]

Shoyan is a 70-year-old veteran carpenter. Although he can do his work without power tools, he often works alone, so he uses power tools a lot these days. His use of saws, saw blades, and a planer are good examples of this. You can see how professional he is.

[@deep_k1ng]

Really good work!

[@mikiethebikie]

What a beautiful bench.😊

You have inspired me to make one for my home. Mine will only be eight feet long and constructed out of redwood, Thank you for being you.
