Mount Fuji - Kumiko Landscape Panel - Japanese Woodworking

[@Hoodalump]

What an insane amount of work went into this 9 min clip...awesome!

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! Probably there were 9 days :)

[@artfullycrooked]

Just this morning I was cutting strips for a hexagonal grid. I kept thinking, 'wow, my fingers are so close to the blade', and 'wow, thank goodness for my SawStop' - as if this is the sole means of staying safe. Then I saw your support bar for keeping the stock flush against the fence. So simple, yet...so clever. I made one immediately after. Thank you for showing so much of your process.

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! Good to help! But I use that only on that side, when I move up, to the reverse angle I cannot use it, because I have to eyeball the mid point of the cut, gently press it L-R. And also I dont have enough space there, I was stupid to make the sled short. I wanna disassemble it soon to make some more slots and I will bring that fwd fence back to make room for a stick like that and see how it goes

[@nickyork8901]

This is simply phenomenal, among the finest woodworking available to watch anywhere. Thanks for sharing.

[@timgoodliffe]

I give this home kumiko of the decade

[@parillaworks]

I don’t know where to begin. Amazing work Adrian.

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks man!👍

[@shrikedecil]

I keep imagining a collaboration with Clickspring. I don't know what sort of brass & wood construction they'd end up with, but it would be gorgeous.

[@iongabrielzamfir8613]

I wanted to add Dorian Bracht when I realized that he had already made a comment.

[@mandyleeson1]

WOW! the precision...and the patience. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks for watching!

[@countknersis700]

Your trial and error have led you to excellence. It's inspiring..

[@sjenmax]

As always, its a pleasure to watch you work Adrian. Hope to see more soon

[@AdrianPreda]

Many thanks!

[@jrkorman]

Beautiful! I think this is the first where I've seen so many patterns in the same work!

[@AdrianPreda]

Thank you! Oh, I'm a little baby in kumiko, see the videos on youtube from some real japanese kumiko workshops

[@amauryrodriguez477]

Absolutely beautiful! As I watched and listened to the video I thought to myself, how zen and therapeutic it must have been while you worked on this. Except for the lost router bit day of course LOL. A true joy to watch. Thank you

[@guylabesseuille2716]

Beaucoup de patience, beaucoup de minutie et une grande maîtrise de l'art du kumiko. Le résultat est magnifique. Bravo et merci pour ce très agréable moment.

[@diegoguerra8736]

Awesome, I love how the center of each unit acts as a focal point.

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! I like also how they "glow" in those centers where all the pieces gather

[@cristinabogdan7799]

I keep imagine it hanging on my living room wall. What a piece!!!

[@davidphan70]

Absolutely amazing. Such creativity and precision with cutting/planing the pieces and joining them - with exact measurements. You got some fancy tools.

[@dan__________________]

I have made Kumiko before. This was a lot of work, and well executed.

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks!

[@durpit]

One of the best kumiko arts I've seen so far, beautiful work! Thanks a lot for sharing.

[@AdrianPreda]

Thank you!

[@coldwoodcowboy4525]

You never cease to amaze...with the woodwork and with the videos. Well done, sir!

[@AdrianPreda]

Thank you very much!

[@nikburton9264]

Awesome work, Adrian! I climbed Mt. Fuji when my ship was in Yokosuka. It was a serious hike, I can tell you. Love the panel.

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! I just saw it from the plane :) Similar, I was joining the ship in Japan, and had a domestic flight just over Fuji. I missed the seats side, was the other side, so I had to disturb a nice japanese couple from their seats to take a picture :)

incredible work!...still exploring basic kumiko (square) patterns and shapes...this video helps build my confidence!

[@randycosgrove3608]

Nicely done. I enjoy seeing that. And I've got to say your choice in music is perfect. Suits the mood of the piece and the construction.

[@AdrianPreda]

Thank you very much! Probably this is the most time and nerve consuming thing of the editing, finding the music, and I know it's still not perfect :)

[@TheTranq]

Wow turned out awesome. Very meticulous work. I like the wedges used to hold it in the frame

[@AdrianPreda]

Thank you very much! Oh geez, I lost one day just searching in the shop for that bloody slot router bit to make the corner keys :))

[@AdrianPreda]

Thank you so much! But I cannot beat those Japanese guys with those gigantic and complex panels :)

Another beautiful piece from you.

[@Wolforce]

Wow this really looks great, and the fuji image really shows through. Great work!

Thanks! I wished I would have filled Fuji with more dense patterns, but the space was too small for complicated ones :)

[@gunterschone8402]

Great video, Adrian. Your Kumiko landscape looks very beautiful! 👍🏻 It's a shame that the books (by Des King, Kumiko Volumes 2 and 3) are only available in English. 😭 The block of wood where you beveled the wood pieces with the chisel. Could you please introduce the angles and how wide and deep the grooves are? 🤔 Have a nice weekend. 🙏🏻

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks Gunter! The blocks have 8mm wide groove (same as the strips), and depth is not critical, a little more than strip thickness. Angles used here are 15, 30, 45, 60 and 75. Also 90

[@gunterschone8402]

Hello Adrian, Thanks for the answer.

I've missed your content in my notifications, great to see another beautiful video from you. ❤️ Did you always have that tablesaw and bandsaw? I only remember seeing you using hand tools. 😁

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! I have them from abt 1-2 years, bandsaw a little older. I do the rough ugly work with them, final touch is always handtools 🙂

[@TheStabbedGaiusJuliusCaesar]

@@AdrianPreda - Ahh ok. 😅 Have you shown them before in your videos? I might just have forgot. 🤦🤣

[@AdrianPreda]

Oh yes, 2 videos ago in my new shop tour. I have a cnc as well 🙂 It was the thing that triggered me into woodworking, now I use it once a year😀

[@TheStabbedGaiusJuliusCaesar]

@@AdrianPreda - I must me hit by Alzheimer-light, man. 🤣

[@patricewauthier1675]

Superb work. And the music is always on point. One question, what kumiko bandwidth for the panel and what is the kerf of the blade?

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! 30mm between verticals and 2.8mm blade so the kerf will become 2.9-3mm

[@andreipopescu983]

Omul cu mâini de aur. Bravo

[@AdrianPreda]

Multumesc!

[@stefanfyhn4668]

Extremely accurate work, as seen in the last shots towards the end! Adrian, you seem to use your low angle smoother in almost every video for almost all tasks requiring planing (except this video haha). Do you find it to be as versatile as you make it look?

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! Good observation :) Usually for planing those strips I use both the LA and Jp one, but here I shown only the kanna since it's a japanese project. I use them both here, one for rough and one for final, depending on the particular wood species and weirdness of the grain, sometimes the kanna works better on last. Because I do a lot of small work and use a shooting board I found the LA plane more suitable for this. I have in plan to get a bevel up one as well, probably the custom planes from veritas, a 4 1/2 or 5

[@kylejones2525]

That is amazing! What are the little pegs and the little hammer that you used to hold the work in the frame? I have been making a lot of frames and I love how that looks

[@kylejones2525]

Ah, I should have read your description, I really like that mini hammer

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! That little hammer was too cute not to have it😀 It was the first time I've use it here. Also the method, didn't knew how to secure that more quick and nice, didn't want to loose time looking to buy some specific hardware and this came to my mind. Those pegs are some long dowels bought from a craft shop, luckly they were already pointy at one end.

[@allannielsen4752]

Just beautiful. Thanks for sharing. I have DK's books and enjoy the read, and his jigs, any chance you can sharea video about yours (e.g. the tablesaw jig) and why you use these over the traditional ones?

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! The table saw jigs you can find them well explained on Mike Farington videos. I use this for speed, filling the inner spaces manually already took me more than a week, didn't want to double that :)

[@prspastor]

Lovely!

[@adrianstorino8740]

¡Felicitaciones! ¡Excelente trabajo! Un gran nivel de detalle. Una pregunta. ¿La madera que se usa es blanda, dura o semi dura? Gracias Saludos desde Buenos Aires

[@AdrianPreda]

Gracias! Mostly soft woods, like pine and basswood. But for nice colors I tried also hard woods like walnut, oak etc

Very nice work. I’ve been practicing the patterns and about to embark on something similar. Could you share the overall size. Did you use 50mm pitch? 3mm grid pattern with 2mm pattern pieces? Thanks

[@AdrianPreda]

Thanks! 30mm between the verticals. Yes, 3 with 2 mm

[@johnshumake3696]

How long did this fantastic build take? If you were to sell it, what would it cost?
