I LOVE SHOJI SCREENS! THE SIMPLICITY IN DESIGN IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND CALMING AND IT'S TIMELESS! IT WILL NEVER GO OUT OF STYLE! I HAVE THREE SHOJI SCREENS IN MY APARTMENT AND I JUST LOVE THEM!

[@samurai-woodworker]

That is great! I‘ll continue to make shoji screens and upload videos as well.

Wonderful video, excellent craftmanship. The music is not necessary. Just the sounds of the woodworking is enough.

[@onibonesmedia]

[@samurai-woodworker]

Thank you very much for your comment!! 😆

[@larsl7483]

Very nice, thanks. First search result if you look for Shoji 👍 Also subscribed ☺

[@samurai-woodworker]

I’m very happy😄 Thank you very much🤗

[@ecbekker]

The shoji screens are beautiful. I live in South Africa and teach the Japanese abacus, known as soroban. My new centre would look very nice with shoji screens, but I will probably need to find a good carpenter and show them this video.

[@samurai-woodworker]

Thanks for the comment! SOROBAN is great. In Japan, young people cannot use soroban. I am very happy if this channel can be a hint for the production.

[@Duane_the_carpenters_Sensei]

i have subscribed to you,my friend . you are very talented. thank you for sharing and putting spirit into your work. Here in America, quality like yours is rare. i try to have the same standards of quality and precision for the work i do here building and remodeling houses.

[@samurai-woodworker]

Thank you very much for your comments. It’s very encouraging for me‼️

[@maxiq1989]

[@samurai-woodworker]

Thank you very much😆

[@dposting2941]

Dude, please consider using scrap wood to push stock through table saw. ONE off day, and there goes a finger!

[@wrusty3767]

Thank you so much for this video. I have seen double-sided shoji doors with the lattice visible from both sides. Could you please show us how to make them?

[@samurai-woodworker]

Thanks for the comment. The same lattice is assembled together. Place paper on top between the lattice and the lattice.

あなたの仕事にとても興味があります。訪れたいです。日本のどこに行きますか?

[@samurai-woodworker]

ありがとうございます。 しかし、工場の見学などはお断りしております😔

[@christophermccord3757]

Does type of wood matter I was thinking of using cedar cause I like the smell and red and brown colors

[@samurai-woodworker]

The type of wood can be whatever you like👍 Woods often used for shoji screens in Japan include spruce, cedar, and cypress.

[@draghz]

Sorprendente trabajo, me encanta que también ahora esta en ingles, ya entiendo mucho mejor! gracias por los videos y mucho animo!! --Great work on the woodworking! and its amazing the work on the video too!-- Saludos desde México

¡Gracias por seguirnos desde México! Seguiré esforzándome por hacer buenos vídeos👍

[@mohsin5520]

Hi. Tx for a lovely video. Beautiful craftsmanship. Tell me, does the other side of the door remain with only the paper? Love the wheels that you used. Please do share where to get both the paper & the wheels please. Tx in advance from South Africa✌

[@samurai-woodworker]

Hey, thanks for your comment.That's right. The other side of the door has only paper on it. The Japanese hardware I use will be available on this channel someday if there are enough requests.

[@nano7055]

Wowww

[@tonialvarez1235]

ありがとうごしいました。 2:32 。

[@samurai-woodworker]

どういたしまして。

[@dracokaiser]

Please do a video on how to make fusuma doors

[@samurai-woodworker]

Ok, I will upload it when I get a chance👍

[@pblackcrow]

Quick question, what lacquers would you recommend for outside shojis?

[@samurai-woodworker]

I think any type of paint for outdoor use will work. Marine Varnish,for example, would be nice👍

[@pblackcrow]

@@samurai-woodworker Many thanks. And I will be doing a couple of large Shoji screens when I move. For my entry way and also balcony.

[@samurai-woodworker]

That's great!! I wish you a good shoji life 👍

[@pblackcrow]

@@ShawnWitty DUH.

[@ezragabriel1387]

can i ask sir.. if it is ok on Outdoor for Screen at terrace?

[@samurai-woodworker]

Thanks for the comment. Unfortunately, shoji screens cannot be used outdoors. This is because when they get wet in the rain, the paper of the shoji will peel off.

[@ezragabriel1387]

thank you sir..🙏

[@pault.juckniess7265]

What is the dimensions on the Kumiko?

[@samurai-woodworker]

The width of the braid is 8 mm and the depth is 15 mm. This is a common size for Kumiko.
