Making Japanese Low Sawhorses

A quick and easy project made to replace my old Japanese sawhorses that were to big for my current needs.
They are very useful in the shop for various tasks, sawing, raising a workpiece, supports, and I believe is suitable project for a beginner in this field or like a first tool/jig in the shop.

Brilliant work again mate, cant wait for the tool box video !

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks GG! Will show up, there is a lot of editing until then :)

[@sapelesteve]

Nice work as usual! I can see where those would come in very handy. Now I've got me another project..........Thanks, Steve

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks, indeed very useful in a lot of applications, sawing, holding a piece while oiling, raising up etc.

[@Mikhandmaker]

Great job man!

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks!!

[@MrFrancogi]

Adrian i do like the way you work. I appreciate that you use both japanese and european tools. Very nice and well done!

[@AdrianPreda]

Thank you Franco for your comment! Yes, some are more practical than the others, i don't think I can stick using 100% only eu or jp tools.

[@PCXPROJECTSTUDIOS]

awesome process

[@jakobhovman]

Weekend greetings Adrian...Fine little video...We can never have enough horses...! Looks like the table is much more stable now...! Looking forward to the japanese toolbox build...

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks Jakob! The bench might go to pension sooner :) I'm planing to make a small japanese planing board and detach the small vise from the old bench and make it clamp-able whenever needed. Still studying how to incorporate more features in the planing board. Have a nice weekend also!

[@mickmcq]

Your videos are inspiring! I'm already using some techniques I picked up here! I enjoy the hypnotic music especially on this one. I was sorry to see a negative comment about the music because I hope you will continue in this same style.

[@AdrianPreda]

Thank you very much, glad you find useful stuff! Ah, music, what can I do, I cannot afford to put Despacito as cover song :)

[@vsechp_]

[@oscar2doi]

Felicitari!!! Foarte frumos ce faci tu, imi place, imi este dor de o imbinare manuala, dar ne omoara timpul asta, oricum... felicitari pentru ceea ce faci si spor in continuare!!!!

[@AdrianPreda]

Multumesc mult! Stiu, crezi ca eu n-as baga freza daca as avea unde sa fac galagie :)

[@fakiirification]

love your projects. need to get back out in my shop. invested thousands of dollars and a full 2 car garage into woodworking, and im letting it collect dust due to being too busy with life and work =(

[@AdrianPreda]

Thank you! Me too, I have a list of 15-20 video ideas to make, but I need the day to have 48h to do so :)

[@samuelcordero6367]

What are the lengths of the legs and beam? Thank you.

[@davidclark9086]

How does one use these to saw something? I guess I am asking what is their proper use?

[@matthewmiller4996]

Very nice! What brand of chisels do you use?

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! Those are MHG, a german brand, one of the cheapest types of professional, lets say, chisels. Maybe Narex are cheaper. It's like 10 euro/$ a piece. I have 5pc, 6,8,12,16,25 mm. Now I just bought a japanese chisel, 12mm, 1/2", made by Matsumura, is like 4x the price of one MHG. It's not 4x sharper or better than MHG, but the feel and pleasure working with it made me regret why I didn't bought from the beginning only just two 6 and 12 mm of this type :)

[@derjman]

Many thanks for the great video. Would you mind sharing the dimensions of the pieces of wood you used? Many thanks and keep up the good work :)

[@AdrianPreda]

Thank you! I recall around 35cmm long, 15cm wide and 8-10cm high.

[@timav71]

интересно. спасибо

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks!

[@alexandrucismasu6157]

Foarte tare, sincere felicitari! Pare ca lucrezi intr-un balcon, intr-un bloc de locuinte. Esti dovada vie ca un vis, o pasiune se poate urma indiferent de conditii! La cat mai multe proiecte!

[@AdrianPreda]

+Alexandru Cismasu Multumesc mult! Situatia e mai rea decat pare, e intr-un colt din living 😁

[@sbutuz]

@@AdrianPreda F. fain! Ai investit ceva si in scule dar ai mana buna. Esti in bransa sau e un hobby?

[@thegroove2000]

wall shelves as well.

[@sbutuz]

De unde iei lemnul?

[@Slovenianwoodworker]

Why the hell was this recommend to me after one year ??? ;-)

[@kookyflukes9749]

yes 👏👏👏. This is how to KZbin

[@AdrianPreda]

+From this to that Thanks 👍

[@user-in9xo6zo9p]

got any ideas for bonsai pot stands?

[@AdrianPreda]

No, but you gave me homework to do :D

[@user-in9xo6zo9p]

Great! I look forward to what you come up with. Some of the larger trees need to be turned so that the folage receives the same amount of sunlight all round, and they can be heavy, so some kind of turntable display mount would be really handy..

[@ACR4008]

Cutted??

[@Robzter117]

What type of saw are you using at 4:17?

[@AdrianPreda]

+Robbie Rowland it is a japanese flush cutting saw, called kugihiki. The brand of mine instead i don t know

[@Robzter117]

Adrian Preda thank you! And awesome work by the way, I love the stuff you make

[@TheMrWoodsman]

Great video but that background music was terrible.

[@andrewaustin6941]

Please do consider doing voiceover on your videos NOT the annoying repetitive music and I would gladly give you a thumbs up! Jusy my opinion bro...

[@AdrianPreda]

Might do it sometime when I will have more time, but I usually do my projects in many days or weeks, and difficult to control the noise here, cars, church bells...

[@philmay7834]

Cut for free, you mean.

[@1lupus]

Great video - terrible soundtrack.
