I would like to comment on the son of the craftsman. Your filming and editing skills are outstanding. I have watched many of these videos as my time allows, and each and every one is terrific. The language difference is never as issue, your English is far better than most born here! And could you tell your dad that he exemplifies the best of craftsmanship in combining old school tools with modern time and labor saving techniques. But his tool usage is phenomenal, as well as his ability to define time tested tricks to make the material (wood) which is always moving, behave and last for extremely long periods. Definitely two thumbs up for the series!

I'm pretty sure the English narration (and probably the translation) is hired out. It was mentioned in an early community post, I believe.

Don't know if he allows links but search for Kurashige Tools. They don't have all his tools, but they have quite a variety, an on-line shop, and I have purchased from them. There are others that are more difficult to purchase from if you don't read Japanese. (I don't.)

My Ryobi handheld electric planer is only about 5cm across, and it struggles way more than that 30cm Ryobi did! I'm jealous of the quality and power of your tools! It is very hard and very expensive to buy good tools in the USA.

Because cedar is grown in tree farms in Japan, and while it's growing they trim out the branches which results in an almost vertical straight tree

Another fantastic job Shoyan! I have a suggestion for a future video: please do one on how you setup and use your planes. I really like using the Japanese style one I have but don't feel I use it as well as I could (because I'm used to Western style planes). It'd be really helpful to learn from a master 🫣
