ISHITANI - Making a Computer Desk

[@ScottAnders62]

I love your simple, elegant designs and flawless execution. There is a lot of artistry in all of your work, including the videos themselves. Reminds me to slow down, stay in the moment and focus on the quality of my actions, rather than the destination.

[@brucepottorff6870]

Watching ISHITANI is like meditating. It reminds me to slow down in my own shop.

[@elvislui4974]

Meditation at ISHIANI in home.

[@badboyvids1]

well said Bruce I think we all could

[@sethpoorman4832]

I agree

[@indrajitnag999]

Absolutely the same feeling i have

[@bigmike1ak]

Watching these Ishitani woodworking videos helps me de-stress and pick me up when I am feeling a bit blue. So relaxing and enjoyable to see. More of these Please. 😊

[@newmanwuk]

There are many furniture makers who can make well but design poorly or design well and make poorly. You are one of the few who can make well and design well, it's a rare attribute.

[@danpryde5503]

Another 13 minutes gone that felt like only 2! What a build! What a channel! So much respect for the trio who make this channel! Thanks from Australia!

[@jras0522]

Every once in a while, I watch your work while drinking tea, makes me so relaxed and happy especially at 3:30 to 4:30 pm, someday, I hope to meet you Ishitani. You are an absolute treasure.

[@DAlanChurches]

I love these short videos. They are small works of art: beautifully shot and edited, no talking, no narration of any kind. Just witnessing the calm mastery of wood craft. Congratulations to the lady who makes the videos. And thank you.

[@pauliepatches]

This video spoke volumes and not 1 word was said... Amazing work.

[@phillkibblewhite2974]

Thankyou Natsuki, My wife and I both very much enjoy your videos. As a woodworker I appreciate seeing your technique and skill, my wife enjoys the presentation and quality of the video, so thank you Chie. We also have canine members in our family and thus also enjoy seeing the outdoors and surrounds, so thank you both and young Shiro to. Good wishes

[@KarlBunker]

1:28: Shiro inspecting the glue joints *very* carefully. He takes his job seriously!

[@jonesbaez4471]

so adorable

[@xeruiz]

Shiro deserves its credits at the end of the video indeed

[@leiwulong_og]

Love this channel so much.

[@ISHITANIFURNITURE]

Thanks :)

[@ericjohn3664]

The work is impeccable and clearly built to be handed down through generations. The video creation is wonderfully peaceful. Thank you so much. I enjoy all of your videos.

[@chemcody5119]

I really enjoy watching you work. You teach many lessons without saying a word. Thank you!

[@brianruth5607]

Each piece is clean and uncluttered yet has a presence of occupying a space. A master at his craft.

[@halbritt]

The editing is excellent. It's nice to see the essential parts of the work interspersed with the environment around the shop.

[@jbb5470]

Another beautiful piece of furniture and enjoyable video! Look forward to every one!

[@neptaligarcia5138]

teacher is very pleased to see how it works, thank you very much. Greetings from Oaxaca, United Mexican States

[@Slovenianwoodworker]

That magnetic adon is good idea. I can see many use of it. Only concern is electronic devices or credit cards. Just don't leve wallet near by. Very nice furniture. Cheers

[@wolfandrabbit]

Years from now there will be an Ishitani revival. So beautiful, so well crafted.

[@BabaG]

Given all the turmoil in the world, watching these videos brings peace, calmness and assures one. As always attention to detail, beautiful craftsmanship and a desire to keep it interesting and engaging without pushing any agenda. Beautiful. I am grateful and thankful for the team to continue to share these works. Many have said it over and over again. Maybe more people will watch and find contentment in wanting quality of quantity in life..

[@MrToolmaker23]

I always smile when I see you finishing the minute chamfers with a chisel. Details, details. Love your work.

[@AndreaArzensek]

I like the idea to clamp mitered joint using pocket holes. Everything is top notch quality craftsmanship. Congrats

[@KingsFineWoodworking]

Your work is amazing!

[@ediii89]

King's Fine Woodworking Yeah james been here to !!!

[@marthinmoshasijupitersiaha3089]

Wow...compliment from skillful fellow woodworker...teach me maztahhh.. 🙌🙌

[@ForrestTaylor22]

Your woodworking videos are my favorite on youtube! Thanks for taking all the time to make videos.

[@JamesSmith-su3oz]

I'm amazed at every video that the two of you do. Nice to see the boss inspecting your work ( 1:30 ).

[@m.d.e.845]

Your product honors the many years that a tree invests in growing, and then turning into lumber used for a piece of art. Your work is timeless and will be popular until the day trees decide it is not worth growing because we have failed them in making beautiful things. Keep up the good work, and stick close to your Japanese woodworking heritage.

[@suzisaintjames]

I totally agree with MarkE but, please do not use ink to mark your products. Return to burning your stamp into the wood. Ink will eventually come off. Burning your name into the wood makes your name last as long as the product and never be lost. Too many 1700 and 1800, even 1900s Craftsman have been lost because their names are not attached to their furniture today. Sending lots of love 💜 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵 USA.

[@michaeldelaney2883]

What is lost on the casual you tube observer is the fact that this man earns his living by his craft. No one but his paying customer has any right to criticize his work. It is very generous of he, his wife and his dog to share these views into their life. It is a joy to watch videos without product placement and shelves full of cheap plastic crap. I look forward to your next post.

[@matteobaldini9837]

That's wrong, nothing is immune to criticism. I love this craft and this videos but if I feel like there's something that should be said about whatever he does I'll say it. And that's what happens when you upload anything on the internet.

[@matteobaldini9837]

By the way I'm almost positive that anyone watching this is perfectly aware that this craft is this dude's job

[@toydoll89]

That's like saying that me, as a bystander, can't complain when a doctor treats a patient badly. With that being said, there is of course different ways to say something and sometimes the best thing to do is to be quiet.

[@erniereyes2831]

he is perfectly a wood artist, i alway admired, someday, i am going to see you personally, to learn and have some chat,

[@delvis7842]

And his dog? 😂😂😂

[@theovanzyl7133]

Again, I am humbled by your skill and mastery of your craft. Very well executed.

[@thegag64]

Absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!! Magnetic strip is nice touch. Your attention to detail is amazing. Thanks for the vids.

[@noother964]

Amazing craftsmanship, presented through an amazing video. Kudos to the editor (I presume it's Chie)! The outside shot with Shiro's footprints in the snow was pure poetry. Your work and the videos make a splendid combination that goes beyond furniture-making: they leave an essence of a beautiful approach to life. I came here by accident, now I'm hooked.

[@daviddanbbq5848]

You are by far my favorite. You make the most ridiculously gorgeous work. I tell everyone about you and this channel.

[@LeftbrainGG]

LOVE the magnetic bar! You are making me want to pick up carpentry and woodworking!

[@AmiraliTaghavi]

Watching you working makes me calm.

[@camiramzi1]

It's always a pleasure watching your videos.

[@featherhead2694]

Very impressive! I love that feature with the magnet. Very clever!

[@SPUDMACKER]

I liked the butterflies tieing in the corner and the hidden magnet was very clever

[@CistemOne]

Amazing. By far my favorite furniture maker and videographer on KZbin. Your content is incredible. Thanks!

[@erhanarslan9493]

I love your furniture with the little designs, which give it his own character

[@Noble909]

Your videos are rapidly becoming my favorite to watch! Thanks for the hard work!

[@badgersbunk7311]

Another beautiful piece of furniture.

[@th34lch3m1st]

13 minutes of pure relax. Your videos are just like meditation. Thanks man for sharing.

[@mururoa7024]

A beautiful video, Chie. Thank you!

[@pthanos]

Wow. Your best video yet. Love the journal of every little trick you had to do. And what a design. Great stuff.

Absolutely elegant and stout at the same time.

[@sullivanspapa1505]

Ishitani Furniture and it's incredibly talented Associates are surely one of modern Japanese national treasures!

[@RandyMercurio]

Thanks for sharing these videos! I enjoy watching a true craftsman manufacture some fantastic pieces. Best wishes to you and your family from North Carolina, U.S.A.

[@enriquearanguiz]

Maestroooo!! infinitas gracias por mostrarnos tus técnicas. Abrazo del lado izquierdo!

[@lalulalula]

Simple is the best. The design seems simple, but all the works need precise measurement and exquisite craftsmanship. And the magnet thing is pretty clever! I will love to buy your furniture if I were in Japan...

[@WorkingTimbersCo]

Really nice design Ishitani!

[@MrThejaddact]

wait, did i just watched a video from 3 years ago about making some furnitures ? damn, it looks so cool ! great work!

[@kightremin]

Those wood boards sound like a dream.

[@dalemartin7886]

So beautiful in its simplicity. You are a true craftsman.

[@RevToddBodysnachr]

I love watching these videos. Fascinating. I watch for hours and often fall asleep.

[@mattharouff3437]

Love your work! Great furniture and great videography!

[@MrPalapikus]

This guy slowly starts to become a true legend!

[@michaeldelaney2883]

Dominos and pocket screws, I guess even the finest of craftsman need to make a buck. Beautiful work as always. A pleasure to watch.

[@clintonbradley7754]

michael delaney that was my thoughts as well.

[@bassmanpnkr]

Don't ever stop making. God has given you an amazing gift.

[@MintStiles]

The complex art of making objects simple.

[@kastelpako9116]

Высочайший уровень профессионализма! Вы супер!

[@himawanawan1534]

after peaceful cuisine and i found this, peaceful woodworking...really love japanese passion..

[@pagenumberunknown]

Would love a link to the cuisine you’re talking about. If it’s only a shadow of this guy’s Craftmanship, rhytm and tranquility i’ll be happy watching it.

[@brianbrodtke6909]

I love your videos , its like meditation.., I always feel happy when I watch them...., I love your style of furniture as well ,functional , strong and elegant ..., thank you...

[@mesoamerican7983]

Wonderful story for a beautiful piece!.

[@KLD2929]

I love your style. What amazing work you do.

[@thecarlob_007]

This is so therapeutic.

[@bjornmundt5801]

Ready for MoMA. Minimalist Design at it's best. A peace of great art. Furniture that needs no other decoration.

[@sinxoverex]

Such a joy to watch your videos and your masterful craftsmanship at work! Wishing you a happy new year!

[@shihu5005]

sinxoverex especially without those “fancy”(annoying) music.

[@CodeFoxAus]

Really nice - I appreciate your attention to detail.

[@maxcavazos4623]

Love your woodworking videos, awesome can't wait to see your next project.

[@michaelrafales2782]

Beautiful video and beautiful work. Thank you.

[@axelm8078]

Nice to see that you are using Kreidezeit Naturfarben products. Very good work!

[@thomaslieven8447]

Beautiful to watch. Was just modestly surprised to pocket screws being used. Always reminds me of clumsy american woodworking.

[@itexplaineverythingwhysubw4720]

I love that old and in the sametime modern lookin stuff that you are make!!! 😍

[@ad.6472]

I loved the magnetic strip idea! It is a nice touch 😍!

[@fernarias]

Yes, it would be nice to hold tools and such but I wouldn't put my computer on top of that magnet or any magnetic sensitive media.

[@danparks8894]

No. Agree. Never place a magnet near a hard drive and it can also mess up your monitor.

[@furrane]

Yeah, no magnets near electronics, that's the rule.

[@TerryPullen]

I'm going to copy that one!

[@ginglyst]

LCD monitors have no problem with a normal magnet nearby. Maybe a 2kg neodimium, that can lift an elephant

[@Brynn_tvgirl]

Just when I thought it couldnt get any better. You have become the one channel i'll sneak out my office to go watch when you post a new video. So peacfull in how you command the earth beneath your hands my friend. I wish one day i could aspire to live a day in your studio. Excellent work is 2nd best to what you do when wood lends itself to your eye. Happy new year from the great state of Oregon.

[@physicsguybrian]

Beautiful work SIr!

[@woodchopperwoodworks8813]

This is a very nice design, woodworking and video. My son wants a “L" shaped desk, and is would be a nice piece for him.

[@bowerbirdstyle7661]

So clever! Love the precision and the detsils. Very satisfying.

like before, i enjoyed watching (twice) this computer desk making. arigatou gozaimasu

Your work is a real pleasure to watch. I’d love to own a piece

[@josephkerley363]

I especially liked the idea of the magnet.

[@herrzaki]

Magnetic strip idea is simply brilliant

[@aic53]

That is a stunning desk, well designed and very well made. Always a pleasure to watch you work, and your videos are a joy to watch. Great stuff!

[@bmwz4magic]

What a wonderful work !

[@nowdatsfresh]

Obviously the furniture is awesome but can we give Shie some credit for these videos? I wish all woodworking videos were like this, no talking, pure Zen.

[@treborsirrah7916]

The magnet at the end ,i wondered what that metal was at 10:20,brilliant touch

[@facundomulki7744]

Guys you are amazing, always the Best quality! thanks for sharing!!

[@乐文玉]

So elegant and inspiring work Mr. Ishitani! Thanks for sharing your talent and good taste, and for showing that beautiful design doesn't mean baroque or futuristic ugly and useless stuff like some comments people aren't ashamed to post. Best regards and the happiest new year for you and your family! 🙂

[@bugspray5286]

Beautiful work, once again.
