This whole process was wonderful to watch but the end product was simply beautiful! The craftsmanship is amazing. It's almost a dying art, making things by hand. But you *can not* deny that it's gorgeous _and_ will last several decades!
By no means a dying art. There are a ton of us doing this. Maybe more so now than any other time, because information exchange is so easy via Instagram & here. EDIT: What's dying is people's desire to pay for quality workmanship. When I quote $10k for a table and somebody freaks out, I remind them it's a month's work and a good portion of that goes to top quality materials & overhead. Doing the math, I'm netting a tiny income for that "expensive" table despite what some initially think.

The craftmanship is fantastic with the use of only wood apart from the handles. The absence of any nails and channels for the drawers is also quite telling. Doesn't moisture affect these cabinets ? Or is the wood pretreated to nullify the future impact of moisture ?

@f9qo Жыл бұрын
I don't believe it's a question of matching or not matching English woodworking. The traditions are very different, and if you look at what has been produced within the very broad range of designs that evolved in Great Britain from the 18th century forward, compared to the quite narrow scope of furniture design in Japan, the Japanese are an infancy compared to the English. The complexity of design that calls for very advanced technique is far and above in Great Britain, and with chair making the English leave Japan in the dust. That doesn't go without saying that when it comes to fine Japanese craftsmen, what they do they do very well with a high standard producing very tight work. There are still a few around today.

We have grown these trees. We currently have over 1400 Paulownia Tomentosa up to 26" in diameter, in different stages of maturity. We sell complete logs, well seasoned for over 2 years, or will saw dimensional Paulownia up to 2" thick and 20' in length. All our wood is free of knots and insect damage.
@f9qo Жыл бұрын
That is a good sized log (called Kiri tree) here in Japan. Sometimes you find larger trees like that, but they have become quite scarce. A lot of the Kiri currently used inJapan is imported from China, and many say it is inferior to the Kiri in Japan. An interesting thing about that wood is that it is dried by keeping it outside exposed to rain, or sometimes after being sawn up, it is kept in a pond of sorts. Without the exposure to water, an undesirable color, kind of a blotchy purplish comes out to the surface of the material, making it unusable. Even being outside exposed to sunlight it seldom cracks. The water drives out the unwanted color, or something like that. It dries relatively quick, being a not heavy less dense wood. A light wood, but not the easiest wood to hand plane with the best results. It makes good drawer making material, said to help keep out moisture in a humid climate. It's traditionally used that way.
@gedsoft3793 Жыл бұрын
@@f9qo I was interested to see how thinly many of the boards were sawn, for drying. I suppose Paulownia must be quite dimensionally stable to allow this, without warping or twisting beyond usability?
@f9qo Жыл бұрын
Traditionally in Japan the wood was used for a type of cabinet work, or commonly used for the internal parts of drawers where the cabinet's main material was a different wood. Much thickness wasn't needed, so the boards are sawn relatively thin and generally dry without much cracking or distortion. My own experience with the wood for a large cabinet, I had the boards sawn about an inch thick, probably thicker than was necessary, and likely so given the final dimensions. I wanted to be cautious with a tree that belonged to the customer, planted when a child was born. The drying all went super well regarding stability and moisture content, about a year exposed to rain out behind my shop, then I kept the wood inside for a couple months, thinking it would help even things out if needed. I would venture to say that if you are starting out with a good straight log that is from an older tree with tight grain that grew in a desirable location, the desired results when drying might well be better attainable than wood from a younger tree that was of a lower standard. I've seen Kiri sitting outside a guy's shop that was thinly sawn a half to three~quarter inch thick, to be used for drawer sides and whatnot.

@@katsujishigeno3094 eu sou um brasileiro de 63 anos, da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Eu desejo ser um marceneiro e carpinteiro nas horas de lazer, por hobby. Não tenho espaço e nem dinheiro para realizar esse sonho, por enquanto. Minhas ferramentas para isso ainda são bem poucas. Vejo os vídeos e acesso textos sobre carpintaria e marcenaria, inclusive a japonesa, e fico com grande vontade de comprar essas ferramentas. Um exemplo são os serrotes japoneses, que a poucos anos eu nem sabia que existiam, mas que me deixaram fascinado. O pouco que vi e li sobre as técnicas japonesas de junções me deixaram com o desejo de praticar elas. É um prazer estético ver estes vídeos. E fazer essas coisas tem algo de "terapia ocupacional", capaz de me desestressar da rotina diária. Até para eu poder realizar esses desejos, é fundamental a preservação dessas tecnologias tradicionais japonesas. Aqui no Brasil eu sei que tem uma escola inspirada nas técnicas japonesas, acho que em São Paulo, mas no momento é inviável para mim fazer cursos nela. Enfim, nunca é tarde para realizar um sonho desses.
