Japanese Woodworking - Loft Ladder: How to Make it

[@tedburns5086]

Sir I have watched many of your videos, and I have come to the conclusion that you are more than just a carpenter. You work wood the same way I learned to work metal. I learned to be a fine tool maker in Germany as part of my job as an explosives demolition expert. So exact work is mandatory. I worked all over the World an when I had time I would go to craft markets and watch the craftsmen for hours. I was always amazed at what human hands can create. On my days off I would work with wood, for it is a living thing, and carpentry creates things were my job destroys them. The company I worked for in Germany had 42 master carpenters and I would have them show me what I had to do to make the thinks I needed and they were outstanding in doing so and I learned a lot from them. But sir you are not only a carpenter but and artist as well. I enjoy watching your videos. Oh by the way I am an American not that it matters in anyway just so you understand that not all of us are arrogant enough to believe that we are the best at everything, and it is our way or not at all. I still do a little woodworking now, though I’m 100% disabled and it is hard for me to get around. Not do to any fault of mine but a war to which I was recalled to. I have been looking for some of the tools you use but am not able to find them here in the U.S. and I do not buy tools online, for I want quality. I also love the way you care for your tools, here people buy tools and then discard them. It upsets me to see this. Well let me end this for now. I know that you have better things to do than read my messages. Thank you again for the outstanding videos.

Watching a skilled craftsman is a pleasure. I especially appreciate you told us what you are making and showed the design before beginning to show us how you craft the ladder.

[@tasteapiana]

Very good and helpful English narration!

[@arnomrnym6329]

Nice peace of carpentry work. Thanks for sharing. 🙂

[@maxgrey435]

Shoyan. Watching your videos, I feel a compulsion. I just have to watch. I think to be a good carpenter you need many parts to your personality and i think you have them ALL. I like your considered, methodical approach to each part of what you are doing. I enjoy your explanations and display of being precise. Thank you.

[@fredbosch5392]

Another great job by a master craftsman. Can you do a video in English on how to set-up a Japanese hand plane? Thanks.

[@danieldelange4116]

Good day, thank you for the effort to make this vidéo available. I did not understand why you did ki-goroshi and i would like to learn if you would explain. Thank you in advance.

[@kennethdrovdal1082]

You are a master craftsman with a lifetime of experience and pride in your craft. Thank you for sharing.

[@joshuap9580]

his dust suppression set up looks just like mine!

[@alexchiperi]

Lovely job! ❤ 10 hrs of work plus materials = 800 + 2-300, so around at least 750 bucks each with overhead and everything else...

[@Frank-gz2zr]

Great job

[@raytheron]

Such amazing craftsmanship! Much respect!

[@david.thomas.108]

Wow, that's really good craftmanship, thanks for sharing.

[@mcpick606]

The precision, care, experiance and skill is the difference between good, better and Shoyan

[@dirdick43]

Very clever design and workmanship

[@NeilSoulo]

Excellent work. A great pleasure to watch someone with such talent.

[@Everfalling]

i wish they sold super surfacers in the US. such a cool machine!

[@lalitaescuela]

Dou you think it's possible to one find on-line ?

[@Everfalling]

@@lalitaescuela they’re exceedingly rare in the US so you’d basically have to get it shipped from Japan or ordered from China

[@lalitaescuela]

@@Everfalling ok thanks 🙏

[@babthooka]

They look fantastic. You make the work look great and inspiring too. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@sverdson]

Merci pour le partage !

[@pinview8519]

Impressive and beautiful job, and you made that hand-held rotary saw so versatile.

[@WilliamAlanPhoto]

Arigato!

[@johnspencer1145]

Beautiful work as always thank you love this Chanel 👍🏻

[@donaldshields2483]

It’s a very good job I wouldn’t expect anything but a good job God bless

[@n3xu501]

I wonder how much these would cost. Such an amazing work!

[@krenwregget7667]

excellent work once again. Will there be a finish of some kind?

[@582tird]

I’ve never seen a power tool like the large power planer, very impressive 👍

[@Isaacjmj]

2:00 in Britain, we call them thicknessers. They are called Planers the same way a hand plane is called a plane - Because they make the material planar. That is to say, relating to a plane in geometry, which only has two dimensions, and is, by definition, perfectly flat.

[@lalitaescuela]

Thanks for your dedication and for the translation 🙏

[@alangarratt7421]

I always love watching you work. Please can you give us an idea of the cost of the timber sometimes. You asked why it is called a Planner. The definition of Plane: Completely level or flat. Therefore a Planner is a machine that makes material plane.

[@RageDaug]

Was looking for this comment before I replied. Good definition. As a note, it's "planer". A planner could be a person who makes plans, or a book you use to organize your plans.

[@vancehikiji5450]

I would like to know where I could get the chisels and hand saws you use. Or others you would recommend. Thank you!

[@kieranfinnerty631]

How does the power plane machine work to take one shaving off 🤔

[@Everfalling]

confused about the dowels. aren't all dowels gonna show up as end grain? wouldn't you need a plug cutter bit to get edge grain?

[@zacheiriksson]

A planer is called a planer cause it makes both sides parallel therefore they are in the same plane

[@therealdojj]

that tool at around 10 minutes in, what is that? it looks very very cool also, planner are called planers as they only cut on one plane, i think it may be obvious to native english speakers but not so much for people who need it translated those ladders and lovely
