Making Yosegi Plane Shaving Veneers - Scrapwood Challenge ep40

[@alexwood020589]

I really like the way most of your videos contain the words "I made a mistake", followed by "here is how I fixed it". It's so much more genuine that the show reel types who hide their mistakes.

[@RIPPER334]

He's the real deal... Most "KZbinrs" would edit out errors... This guy isn't afraid or ashamed to let anyone know he made a mistake. ...and better yet, he always goes one better, and explains the fix for it! Good stuff!! Love this channel!

[@IncogSkbb021]

@@RIPPER334 you both hit the nail on the head. He is a man that looks at mistakes as a learning experience instead of an error.

[@BurkeMakesStuff]

Just wanted to give you a word of thanks. I’m in NYC and started my own YT channel about a year ago. It’s doing really well with around 8k subs so far, but in the face of all this Covid-19 garbage, I’ve just really lost my motivation. I’m a teacher so all education here is on the internet. Sitting in front of a computer all day is just killing my creativity and this video really has me ready to get back into the shop. Can’t wait to try this. Thank you! Thank you, a lot!

[@JoelWetzel]

I appreciate that you don't edit out your mistakes. How you deal with them is as instructive as the other stuff you do and leaving them in also makes you more relatable than those who always seem to get it right, especially if they're using Powermatic, Festool, or other such prime equipment. Peace.

[@woodandwheelz]

[@hette666]

At my school we have a mitre guillotine, i haven't used it very much, but when i used it (or saw others use it) only one side was used at a time. The way he used it for making the box was like, wow (when i made boxes with 45 degree angles i used the table saw, which is anoying for small boxes and you have double the work because you need to cut each side seperatly). From now on i will not waste time for things that can be so easy. :)

[@catey62]

I used to work at a custom picture framing gallery back in the early 80's and they had one for cutting the material for all the custom made frames. havent seen one since so seeing this one today brought back memories for me.

[@fredrichardson9761]

I have always loved wood boxes and collected them as a kid. How any of those nice boxes are made was a complete mystery to me and lets just say my shop class attempts were humorous at best ;) It is wonderful to peek behind the veil and see how it done! Thank you for sharing the remarkable steps and your skill in designing and building a box like that! I never would have guessed that you would construct the whole box first and then create the lid at the very end by sawing off the top - genius! Also wonder to have some notion of how one would do DIY veneer!

[@BobsWoodStuff]

Great project Pask. I like how you highlight the mistakes and how you fixed them.

[@masterxyr]

A beautifully creative man. Well done!! I can't remember the name of it, but the Japanese art of doing things methodologically and intently, is a way of living too. Yes it takes a lot of time, but they're not rushing, they will do the task and devote the time the task requires. Something we should remind ourselves of in the West more. Don't rush through washing the dishes. Clean them with intent, and pay attention, or as others would say, be in the moment. We will one the lose the art of patience if not.

[@cat-.-]

Shyir I think the Japanese way of art and living is called wagyu iirc

[@GuiltyMalice]

I love that guillotine. That is such a cool tool. It’s a big badass shear for making miter cuts lol. It’s awesome. Incredible work as usual.

[@Nerdforge]

This was so satisfying to watch! Great work!

[@deniskhakimov]

I have no words. For a typical technogeek it looks like some wonderful magic!

[@TheUncleRuckus]

I've been playing around with doing this for the past few weeks. I've been getting a lot of tear out as I didn't think about cutting a miter on the strips. Definitely going to give this another go. Thanks Pask, much appreciated 👍👍

[@PaskMakes]

The first block I did (not shown) the pattern was 90° to the plane and didn't work well at all. I then realised that most patterns in Yosegi are skewed and that must be the reason why. I cut that block up on an angle, re-glued it, tried again and was much better. :)

[@Oonagh72]

I like that. It looks tedious, but weirdly relaxing. Those book marks are beautiful.

Also, a man who still has all his digits. I use then all the time no matter what. On slip and you've ruined one of your most valuable tools: your hand

[@pistachio1293]

So cool and seemingly relatively cheep to make out of scraps. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@professorbellorum]

I have one suggestion for a cool effect: When you make the initial box -- before veneering, cut the sides and add the friction inserts. Apply the veneer to the already cut box, with appropriate sizing, being careful to mark where you'll need to cut (with a knife) along the seams in the box between the body and the lid. Now, cut with a knife instead of a saw -- if you're careful you'll be able to completely hide the seams when the box is closed. I bet it'll be quite hard/finicky to get right, but it would be pretty cool to see it work.

[@robbo9566]

Your skill, craftsmanship and attention to detail are quite amazing, your projects and imagination are most probably the best on KZbin. I'm an old school woodwork teacher of many years, now retired and you fascinate me, but you do something that ruffles my feathers and it's something I taught students the first time they used a Jack plane, put it away in the rack when you finish with it, always lay the plane on it's side with the blade facing away from you when resting before reusing it. Most will understand why, but just for those who do not, 1. Lay the plane on its side, this prevents the blade cutting the bench top and also by resting the plane on its soleplate the blade can get damaged and pushed back into the plane, which then needs readjusting. 2. Rest the plane on its side with the blade facing away from you, this prevents the user accidentally grazing their hand across the blade, a sharp blade slices skin equally as well as timber. I hope you'll rectify this bad habit, and continue to show newbies to wood craft the right way and safe way to do things.

[@ozludo]

That was lovely to watch. It seems like a trivial idea (others in the comments are much better), but you could create a parquetry floor for a dolls house.

[@sanankynaston9925]

IMHO, the Yosegi strips look very good, and the little box you made is just gorgeous! Fabulous video, as always.

[@IanSmithKSP]

You’re now a part of the extremely small club of people who know how to do this in your country. I actually liked the orderly and jagged look of your original arrangements too.

Beautiful work and truly inspiring. The wood for my project is due to arrive in the next couple days and I'm excite because I've never done a project like this before. I'm using red oak or regular oak and bog oak to make the handle of a cane. I'm nervous because the bog oak is between 2000 and 5000 years old and I'm worried that I might make a mistake that can't be corrected. But I've earned from watching your videos that with woodworking, that's the only way you get better. You're projects are amazing, I can't wait to see the next one!
