I Was Too Meticulous... Spending 10 Days Building a Stylish Woodshed Completely by Hand [Completion]

[@survivaloptions4999]

Your wood shed is nicer than the best piece of furniture I've ever owned.

[@julien.2573]

It's nicer than the apartment I'm living in 🥲

[@BuiltByJalal]

Lol. That’s funny

[@Sumuni-z5m]

​@@julien.2573😂😂😂

[@terenceyuen4424]

This shed in North America would cost you about $50k if you paid a professional 😅

[@maplebones]

@@terenceyuen4424 Who is he trying to impress ? I 'm assuming he will carefully select only firewood that is worthy of his ridiculous creation.

[@seangould3664]

Meticulous? No, it’s just pride in craftsmanship. This is becoming a lost art, and you are a master. Thank you for sharing with us!

[@jckdnls9292]

Craftsmanship is being meticulous..

[@qwertykeyboardwarrior]

Meticulous... went way past that. He's in the 1%

[@bwillan]

That's the best looking woodshed, I've ever seen. A picture of it loaded with firewood would be great to see.

[@bananarepublic6580]

I too would love to see that.

[@Menuki]

Imagine being “taken out behind the woodshed” but it’s a zen experience

[@garyconover4422]

I wish I had someone like you teaching me when I was an apprentice carpenter. I absolutely look forward to all your videos.

[@jewdd1989]

I love the foundation and how the sill sits way above the ground like that! Especially to preserve the sill it’s just a smart move I doubt you’ll ever regret. And that joinery… it’s stunning and will last through the ages not to mention it’s beautiful and quality well built structure! We need more of this craftsmanship. Joinery is something I’m passionate about so it’s just fascinating to watch! This reminds me a bit of Man About Tools, you ought to check out his YT channel because you both are similar to build technique and style

[@jackdlamb]

Man's a literal jedi of timber, I love these videos and the work you do

[@Madmoody21]

I am 58 years old with 38 years of experience in carpentry from rough to cabinetry and furniture. You choose to make utility structures. I am impressed with your species choices matching special use requirements, and overall design purpose verse astatic balance. This is also a very good video showing "proper" attitude and skills in fastener applications.

[@richcollins3490]

Your carpentry skills will hopefully be passed down to future generations and should be considered a national treasure. Skill, art, pride in workmanship, your videos have it all. Thank you for sharing this with the world.

[@MOONRAK3R23]

Im still amazed at the engineering that goes into Japans housing. Made to last many lifetimes. Exceptionally beautiful work Shoyan!!

[@jimbeam-ru1my]

"Im still amazed at the engineering that goes into Japans housing. Made to last many lifetimes." You would think, but Japanese homes are only built to last 25 years.They aren't built nearly as well as this woodshed. When you buy a home in Japan, it isn't an investment like in the US. You expect the value of the home to fall to 0 in just 10-15 years. In Japan homes are to live in while in the US they are stores of value for the banks.

[@bw2020]

@@shanedevon6447 I live in a 150 year old Japanese house and I found one rotted floor joist. Pine on the ground will tend to do that after a century or so lol. The main reason that there might not be many old houses around anymore (thats debatable btw) is because they either burned down at some point, or it became easier to tear them down and build a new home rather than modernize an old one.

[@billb2094]

Shoyan, you are a Master Carpenter and meticulous is normal for you. This is why I enjoy watching your work no matter what the project is as the quality is excellent. This wood shed will outlast it owner and he should be very, very pleased with the workmanship. 👍🏼🔨😎

[@gungho8180]

I learned more in twenty minutes watching this video than I have in hours of scouring the internet for information on how to build. Thank you, Shoyan for sharing! I am looking forward to watching your videos and learning more!

[@eltripudiante]

That was probably the nicest shed I've seen being made by a carpenter. Splendid. My hats off to you, Sensei.

[@timairborne5813]

Japanese work ethic and craftsmanship is an example to the rest of the world. Thank you for showing us.

[@brianthesnail3815]

There are modern houses in the UK built with less care and attention. Love Japan and the care and attention to detail in the way things are made.

[@ImpyChan]

That isn't a woodshed, it's art with a day job. ❤

[@robertnichols4833]

What a pleasure to watch you work and what an homage to the finest craftsmanship is the result. I only wish that my home displayed a tiny fraction of such workmanship.

[@robertbamford8266]

A woodshed for the ages. Beautiful.

[@Ham68229]

Awesome job. There's no such thing as "overkill" when it comes to woodworking and building. Great video as always, cheers :)

[@KelvinMeeks]

Artisanship. Care. Attention-to-detail, even in the smallest of details. Precision. Hallmarks of any great creator, builder, maker - and architect. A masterful example of Shokunin Kishitsu, translated as “the artisan’s spirit.”

[@hangableautobulbbot]

I just recently gained an appreciation for carpentry and this video almost brought me to tears in a good way.

[@mchilly]

I love watching Japanese carpentry. These are true craftsmen who take pride in their work.

[@smeckles101]

Props to this guy wearing a helmet! Such a simple accessory can really prevent so many injuries!

[@SBauiLund]

This "woodshed" would cost over 20 grand in denmark, i could only dream building a woodshed with of that kind of material absolutley amazing craftmanship. Keep it up and may god bless you and everyone else

[@Menuki]

In San Francisco, ppl would rent that out for $1500/ month

[@kevinlucas8437]

Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship !!! All that beautiful wood, especially cedar !!! I could smell the Sawdust !!!

[@traviswebster4622]

The timeless practices of Japanese craftsmanship shall continue to pass through new traditions as well. Thank you for composing and sharing.

[@billyshears9918]

I really enjoy watching Japanese carpentry. And what could be better than watching you building the world's best looking wood shed. 👍😃

[@jamesfearing9459]

I love when structures are over designed. They will last far beyond the usual life span. 100 years from now it will still serve.

[@M0esmac]

This is mind blowing. I rarely comment, but, yeah. This is amazing. Great inspiration for my own woodshed!

[@UndigitalWorks]

Your meticulous attention to detail truly paid off in this stunning woodshed build! Your commitment and craftsmanship are truly inspiring. Subscribed to your channel for more amazing projects like this one!

[@Ingenieur_werker]

I enjoy the mixing traditional carpenter art with modern hardware and mashines.

[@odinncool]

That is so beautiful! I love the effort into detail you put. And I love the fact you chose nails instead of screws for the gable ends of the woodshed for aesthetics.

[@painfulltruth5551]

I like the way the foundations are raised. Im building a garden workshop in the summer next year. Im going to give this a go so the floor is a good distance from the ground.

[@09591000]

Спасибо большое. Огромное удовольствие было смотреть за вашей работой. Удачи.

[@rodritter3174]

This video is food for the soul. Great craftmanship.

[@aaronquint3124]

Hello from Canada! I wanted to say, I enjoy watching your videos because of all the care and details you put into your work! I am an amateur woodworker, and strive for your level of care and skill.

[@joduval]

Same! If I can accomplish 1/10 of the quality of that work I will feel accomplished 😅

[@terenceyuen4424]

You should definitely visit Japan people over there take pride in their work. Even McDonalds food looks and taste way better 😅

[@ryanward6866]

Only Shoyan would hand cut dovetails and bring a hand planer to use on the frame of a shed. Beautiful work like always!

[@moos5221]

I love the usage of safety helmets while standing on lose board bridged between two ladders.

Awestruck. When I grow up I want to be Shoyan. Amazing work. Keep building.

[@ABadManinLondon]

Shoyan-san, the wood shed is a thing of beauty. The materials, craftsmanship and style remind me of my time touring rural Japan - one of the best times of my life. Arigato gozimas for sharing this video.

[@stoffes]

never see so good carpentry japan have to be one of the best how they build buildings! love to travel to japan and look on the houses ^^ love japanese food!

[@erwinamante7264]

I’m always appreciative of the attention to details and craftsmanship of the wood worker in japan. It makes me want to try it but the wood quality here in my place is very different from that in japan. None the less it makes me relax watching this video. Extra bonus to the english narration

Well done again! The instrument you used to measure the diagonals with the angles on the end was quite interesting.

[@bobafetting6373]

Woodsheds that are built better than most office blocks. Incredible..

Beautifully done! You are an artist. Hopefully woodshed owners realize what a masterpiece they have! Excellent video making technique, very professional! Fun to watch. 美しく完成しました！ あなたはアーティストです。 薪小屋の所有者が自分たちがどれほど傑作を持っているかを理解してくれることを願っています。 優れたビデオ作成技術、非常にプロフェッショナルです。 見ていて楽しい。

[@blitzkriegfritz2779]

Hey Fritz here, a carpenter from Germany. It's a great looking shed you built there. Can I ask what kind of wood you are using for the wooden nails? In Germany we use hardwoods like Beech or German Oak for them. I wonder what you guys are using. Greetings from Germany.

[@christofergreen214]

The roof alone is beautiful!

[@ccengineer5902]

That's the most luxurious firewood rack that I've ever seen in my life.

[@wandererg5117]

Hi Shoyan, this is incredible craftmanship. That is such a great looking shed. I have recently purchased a piece of land and have much firewood on hand. I'm going to base my design of the woodshed I need to build on this design. When I will be building it, and I achieve even a fraction of the precision and craftmanship you display, I will be a happy man.

[@dessertman1181]

A TRUE MASTERPIECE OUTSTANDING VERY WELL DONE

Japanese carpentry such exquisite work

[@toddgrant4268]

Should we discuss the awesome lumber he has access to? U can't find that in the states unless u pay an arm and a leg. The craftsmanship here is next level.

[@RobertLidstroem]

I have the deepest respect for Shoyans knowledge and quality of work! Everything is just beautiful! I live in Sweden and do small carpentry myself. I have a couple of questions: 1) is quality wood cheap in Japan? Or is all the videos from customer-homes etc? 2) im curious about so much. Could you please make a special episode where you ask him viewers questions? How old is he? Are you two related? What education did he get, or did he learn from his father? How long has he worked as a carpenter? Thank you for the english voiceover and subtitles!! Kind regards Sweden

[@bw2020]

I live in the Japanese countryside, and as for your first question, no, lumber is quite expensive. However, the forests are full of Cypress and Cedar so if you can cut down and mill your own lumber, then it's a different story. The old saw mills are hanging on by a thread, being operated by guys in their 70s, so you can find older lumber for cheap if you know people. Regular stores mostly just sell Canadian Douglas Fir.

[@jimclark7917]

I am a master carpenter from America. I'd love to come to Japan and work with you for a week. I think both would enjoy that.

[@Nozinbonsai]

Yea you could tell him all about it .

[@thomcdixon]

more time invested in planning and building properly can yield decades more in longevity. this is the proper way to do it.

[@j.hernandez983]

I'd trust that woodshed in a storm before my own home 😂. Man that's amazing! Most Americans wouldn't want to pay for this detail. Really can't say enough it's just crazy the amount of detail.

[@blakevsblake]

Great work! And beautiful wood! I’d love to see it aged. I imagine it’ll have a great quality that shines brighter and brighter over time.

[@nadavshaham9530]

I really like that height adjustment tool you are using for your mitre saw on the concrete. I am often using my mitre saw on the concrete as well, and wish I had something like this!! I usually use a 2x4 on its edge with another to keep it from wobbling (like a L or a T shape) but I really like what you are using!
