The technique of assembling wood pieces without using nails, the process of kumiko work!

[@notan2007]

高度な技術というのは世の中に溢れていますが、素人にはどれだけその技術がすごいのかは分からないし、完成されたものを見てもそういうものだとしか認識できません。しかし完成までの行程という貴重なものを見させていただいたおかげで、今まで完成品の美しさしか見る目がなかった私に新しい楽しみ方を与えてもらったような気がします。

[@geekay101]

Yes, though the pieces are processed by very advanced precision machinery. Nothing takes away the beauty of the finished piece, despite that.

[@denisemurray412]

So beautifully said. I agree with all that you have said. Craftsmanship is, sadly, a dying art. I'm glad there are videos that showcase these artisans and their wonderful life's work.

[@TikiHi77]

My thoughts exactly!

[@user-hy7gf1uf4s]

Гораздо меньше, чем Вам кажется. Это традиционная культура. Раньше это стоило гораздо дешевле, чем сейчас. Просто в моем распоряжении есть вещи более чем сто-летней давности. Современный человек не додумается - КАК это было сделано очень простыми ручными инструментами. И - быстро. Я знаю историю этих предметов, они достались мне по наследству от бабушки. Much less than you think. This is a traditional culture. It used to cost much less than it does now. It’s just that I have things at my disposal that are more than a hundred years old. Modern man will not figure out HOW it was done with very simple hand tools. And fast. I know the history of these items; I inherited them from my grandmother.

[@samyagdrsti]

@@user-hy7gf1uf4s Some years ago, I watched a video of a family creating kumiko items with traditional tools. They're so simple, almost obvious yet very creative at the same time. The ingenuity of humans in designing tools and methods to produce unexpected things never ceases to amaze me.

[@godfrois2408]

Hard to say anything about this. So many levels. I must though, through admiration. To translate a manual based design to partial machine built process is difficult for even basic designs. The evolution of this complicated design to machine manufacturing is frighteningly difficult. The ability to process and map each piece machined in multiple is at least equivalent to the original skill. Thicknessing, cutting and docking in multiple while understanding each part created is exceptional. Then we have the tolerances required for each joint while allowing for different multiple intersections in various joint types. Combined with the hand planing and cutting process allowing flexible mitres is incredible. I was astounded by the high quality machinery with oversized systems. After watching the video I can see how necessary this must be for precise repetition. I consider myself a quality woodworker with an healthy Japanese tool and technique influence with a good career and this makes me look silly. Cool!
